A couple of weekends ago, Brandon helped P learn to ride her bike without training wheels. She caught on quickly and in a couple of days had it down. She loves being able to ride like a big kid. She will just ride up and down the street. So PROUD of her!
Last night, her future elementary school had Kindergarten Roundup. It was neat to get to check out the school, meet the Kindergarten teachers, and get some vital info on next school year. P was a bit nervous but I think she liked being able to tour the different classrooms and was a bit more comfortable with the idea when we left. I'm SO excited for her to start this fall. Her first day will be August 8... just a few months. I know she is ready and will love the new adventure :)

Love this little man!!! He is definitely all boy and has the scars & bruises to prove it, ha! He loves being outside!! He still has a major obsession with trucks, trains, cars and planes. He was wearing his mama down for a couple of weeks with his 6-630 am wake ups. He was getting up earlier than the baby :/ Thankfully, he is back to his normal wake up between 7-8. I think drinking a full sippy cup of milk before bedtime has helped him.
H got a new bike a couple of weeks ago. Its called a glide and ride balance bike. It basically helps them to learn how to balance and "ride" a bike. It has no pedals so the concept is to use your feet to glide it while keeping it upright. We put him on P's bike a few times and he hasn't quite mastered the concept of pedaling so for now his choices are his trike or his balance bike. I think a real bicycle will be on his Christmas wish list this year.

My little scooter as I like to call him. This is just a precious picture of him. He is finally learning to nap and most days I can get him to take a solid 2 hour nap. Typically its in the afternoons and the kids & I go outside to play so the house is quiet for him. He really needs the everyday but some days it just doesn't happen. He is no longer being swaddled at night and I think he prefers it that way. He doesn't like being confined and loves being able to move his hands and arms. He is doing complete revolutions of rolling while on the floor now. He will roll from his back to his tummy get up on his tummy then roll back over onto his back. Sometimes his hands get stuck and he's gets very flustered. He seems to prefer to be on the floor more now than being in his bouncer. I think he's decided he likes being able to move and be free.
He is still doing well with eating. Its still a messy process but he is eating most of what I give him. He is onto bananas this week. So far he has tried and liked apples, sweet potatoes and now bananas. The 7 o'clock hour seems to work best right now for feeding him dinner. I think I will introduce breakfast to him in the next few weeks or so. His feeding schedule is so nice and predictable. He is another OCD baby and doesn't stray far from his normalness. He is starting to play with some of his toys. Its just amazing how fast he has developed and grown just in these four months.
