Swimmer ballerina

One of Chloe's coaches gave her this team suit at the meet today. She was so excited, and had to go put it on immediately. I was not at the meet, because of my busted leg, so Andrew texted me this picture of her. So silly!!!

Cupcake!

Yes, this is a whole post about cupcakes, because my son loves cupcakes!!!  He calls many sweets cupcakes. In fact, that is what I woke up to on Mother's Day--Micah coming down the hall saying, "cupcake, cupcake" as Andrew and the kids brought me french toast!  Anyway, here are pictures of Micah with his birthday cupcake!

Happy Birthday, Micah!!

Today, my boy turns two!!!  Happy birthday to my sweet baby!  Micah is such a loving, active little guy. He loves to follow Chloe around and mimic what she does. He gives us all the best squeeze hugs and loves to cuddle up when he gets tired. Otherwise, it is hard to get him to sit still for very long. He loves cars, trucks, trains, airplanes, animals, and it is so fun to watch him learning imaginative play with his toys!  We love you, Micah!

mom2mom VBS

Elle and Rebecca had a fun idea to host a free VBS at various parks this summer, and today was the first one. We met up at Seely park, let the kids play in the water, then Rebecca led us in a craft, Elle ran some games, then the kids ate and listened to a Bible story, and we finished up with Jodi leading the kids in some singing. It was such a fun morning!

fun water game!

That's Micah in the white shirt. He stared at Teddy and Gilbert the whole singing time!

2 year check up

Andrew took Micah in for his 2 year check up this morning. I was so sad to miss the appointment, but it was easier for me to stay home than try to go with my crutches. Andrew said that Micah has moved up to the big kid scale, as he is too heavy for the baby one!  Here are his stats:

Weight: 32 lbs (89th percentile)
Height: 3' 1" (97th percentile)

This boy was born big and is staying big! Although, this is the first checkup where his height has been a higher percentile than his weight. It makes sense, though, because he never sits still!!  He burns off all that food he eats!

Swanston Park

We had a playdate with friends from our Wednesday night group today. I was so thankful for Elle and Toby, who helped us in and out of the car, and ran after Micah for me. This broken mama has a hard time taking care of her super active boy! Oh yeah, they also took these pictures....

Carl's lunch

My crazy kids needed to get out of the house on this rainy day, so my parents and I took them to Happy Star for lunch and play. I know they both have food in their mouths, but I think this picture is so cute of them sharing a chair and saying cheese!
