Ball Pit! (kind of...)

Leo LOVES the ball pit at school and at the gym so I decided I would create a ball pit at home...I found an empty laundry basket and put all of the balls we have in the basket. He thought it was great!!! He loved throwing the balls out of the basket and watching me pick them up. Then Daddy pulled the basket around the room and gave Leo a ride in the ball pit. What a fun afternoon!

TWENTY NINE...

Today is my 29th birthday...I can't believe that I am only one year away from 3-0! Yikes! I had a GREAT day celebrating. It all started when Kevin and Leo brought me breakfast in bed. Leo was very interested in what was on the tray and enjoyed sharing a piece of toast with me. After Leo's nap, we dropped him off at Grammy's house and Kevin and I went to lunch and did some shopping. It was so nice to spend some time together. Then we picked up Leo, brought him home for a nap and I went and got a much needed massage! Then we played at home for awhile, ordered pizza, ate cupcakes and now it is time to relax on the couch! I couldn't have asked for a better day!

Last night we celebrated at my parents house with my parents and siblings. My mom made a delicious dinner and there were balloons, gifts and cupcakes! You're never too old for an old-fashioned birthday party!!!

Thanks to everyone for making my 29th birthday so special!!!

On the move!

Leo is officially a crawling machine! He is EVERYWHERE!!! A week and a half ago he started crawling forward and each day he started to move a little more. Now he has mastered the skill and is very interested in everything he can get his hands on. He is in the Tupperware drawer, in the book shelf, under the table, in the toy buckets and under my feet!!! It is so fun to watch him crawl to get where he wants. It is amazing how much his world has changed in the past two weeks. He is also able to give kisses and clap when asked. I am in awe of the fact that he understands what I am saying and will produce what I ask him to do. Wow!!! His personality is continuing to develop and he is very interactive. He loves to laugh and smile and be silly. I love my sweet little boy!!!

LOOK AT ME!!!

Leo has discovered how to get our attention... he makes a loud noise and then waits for us to look at him. If we don't immediately talk to him, he will continue to make loud noises until we turn and acknowledge him. He makes a loud BOP sound which makes his bottom lip come up over his top lip. It is a pretty silly face!

So Interested...

What...

is Leo...

so interested in?

He is watching his Daddy play the guitar!

Splish Splash!

Leo loves the bathtub! He kicks and splashes like crazy. I end up completely soaked by the time the bath is over. My parents gave him some beach toys for this summer so we decided to give them a test run in the bathtub!

Great Grandma and Grandpa

Kevin's grandparents came in town from Tulsa last weekend to spend some time with their great grandbabies! We had a wonderful time visiting with them on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. We hope to see them again soon!
