Memorial Day Weekend

 Happy Memorial Day!

 Smoothie season

 Rose graduated to the top part of the shopping cart :)

 The first trip was a success

 Playing with Baba in the morning

 The Y waterpark is open!

 Rosie didn't make a peep

Waterpark at Stallings Park is open too. Jason found some friends to play football with

Addie's personality is showing more

 Starting to sit on her own

Gets a huge smile and laughs when she sees her big brother. It's so fun to see them interact

Bananas, peas, applesauce, and avocado. She loves them all

Grandma and Pop Pop's visit - Pop Pop photography

Thanks so much for coming! We miss you!

Clean up, Clean up, Everybody Clean up

Cleaning pee off the floor every 10 minutes all week told us Jason might not be quite ready for potty training. We'll try again soon. In the meantime, he's learning to clean up :)

Dad calls this her "teenager face"

Happy Friday

 Rose adores her brother (New naughty chair in the corner) :)

 Potty training in full force. The ratio of successes to accidents is about even at this point.

 Still loving his "hat"

Maybe she will like "soccer balls" (what Jason calls all balls right now) like her brother does

Crackers are like crack over here

Sweet Rosie

Keeping cool on a hot day

 Our sweet girl

 Pop Pop, can you fly back down to feed me? Not mom's favorite thing to do...

 The only way he'll sit still for a minute

As a baby people always characterized Jason as cheerful (and still do). This little girl is called sweet more than anything else. It's the truth!

Ready, set, GO!

Happy Mother's Day Mommy! We love you!

Jason and Addie wanted to make sure Mommy knew how they felt. Addie even learned to write to celebrate the occasion.

We're Back Together Again

After more than a week apart as an entire family, I (Andy) returned from DC to my wonderful family. It was a long week away.

Picture a student took at the lacrosse game last week.

Rosey looking adorable as usual.

This is how you lose a wrestling match with a toy.

Rolling over like a champ.

Mommy and Adleigh's trip to Colorado

Grayson, Danielle, Adleigh and me in Colorado Springs. Bad timing at the Gillespie house though. A stomach bug hit the house hard and the original two day stay with them was cut to a half day trip to Lafayette. At least I got to see her and Max for a little bit and go to her shower and meet her new friends.

 Grayson and Adleigh (for their wedding video)

 Video chats with Buddy and Baba

Glad to be home now! Adleigh did great except for the flights. Terrible on the way there and screamed during the descent on the way back. Pictures from Grandma and Pop Pop's visit coming soon.

Ten Minutes Before Bedtime

Momma is gonna be happy about this

While Mom and Addie were on their way to Colorado, I took Jason to a lacrosse game at school. He didn't watch any of the game, but he got to play with a bunch of my students for a couple hours. At the end of the night, a parent even bought him his own kid's stick. He loved it.
