Why do they have to grow so fast!!!

It has been awhile...there just does not seem to be enough time anymore!! Chandler will be 6 months old on the 30th and Blake will be 4 on May 29th, it is so hard to believe!!! Chandler is now 16 lbs and 26 inches long, she is rolling around and sitting up on her own! She is such a sweet little girl and absolutely adores her brother. She has started to really enjoy apples and bananas, it is so much fun to watch her try new things!

We are enjoying being a family of 4, I am reminded everyday how very blessed I am! We haven't been up to much lately, except the usual...Josh is nearing the end of soccer season and Blake is getting ready to finish up his first year of preschool. We are planning a beach trip over Blake's birthday this year and hopefully will visit the mountains for a long weekend to take Blake to Dollywoood and Great Wolfe Lodge.

Here are some pictures over the past few months....

Chandler LOVES bathtime!

Josh has been doing a lot of yard work when he is at home and Blake loves to help!

Finding the Easter eggs the Easter bunny left.

Checking out all of his goods!

Trying out some apples.

Blake wanted to climb a tree so we let him go up a little...

Soaking in a few sun rays while Blake plays outside.

DeeDee came to visit over spring break and she and Blake planted a garden, we are having fun watching the veggies come up!

Loving the Johnny Jump Up

Hanging out together as Blake shows Chandler some of his toys. He did not like it to much when she started to grab his stuff though!

Swinging together, a favorite past time in our home.

Aunt Niki and Uncle Chris came over spring break too, we had a picnic at the park and Blake was so excited to "find the ice cream truck!"

My precious baby girl.

She loves the walker.

GiGi bought Chandler this precious Easter dress and I tried to get some sweet pictures of her in it...they turned out ok.

Not yet sweet girl, but I look forward to sharing lots of cups of coffees with you one day!

I am ready for Ono Island!

Hanging out of daddy's belly...he is smitten by her!

A boy and his dog..they are best friends!

Harker and Blake have become great friends!

Blake went with Josh and the soccer boys to rock climb...he had a great time and is ready to go back!

Silly brother and sister!

First taste of bananas and cereal...it got better!

Such a sweet angel face!
