Love the Lake

Kai likes the lake too. I'm not sure if she loves her beach yet, but I hope she loves it soon.  The ducks are so tame they eat out of her hand, which she thinks is pretty cool.  We are getting another truck load of sand to expand our beach and I can't wait. Love the beach, all of them.

The water is so cold, but Kai thinks
 it's fun to have her toes in the water

I love you Kai

This was her first time in a big girl bed.
We are still working on it. 

I'll take

While at the lake we took Kai out for breakfast at one of our favorite places and she read the menu from top to bottom. Breakfast is her favorite meal of the day. 

It all sounds so good.

Hulk moves

June wanted to make her sister proud and pull out her best Hulk moves. She did well. 

June's first week at the lake

We had great weather, a perfect little beach and the week flew by. Wyatt and Dad caught Crappie and hunted mushrooms, while Mom and I held June and wrangled a toddler. Life is good. 

Easter

Easter was so much fun this year. Kai was excited about the egg hunts and it was so much fun to watch her put her treasures in her basket. The Easter bunny  put one Mm or one jelly bean in most of her eggs and she loved opening them to get her treat. I loved seeing her smile. Kai you are an amazing 2 year old and bring joy to our family. June, you slept through the egg hunt,  but I bet next year you will give Kai a run for her money. You have the sweetest little smile and chubby cheeks right now. I Love you girls. 

Umm, no

So, I thought I would be fancy for breakfast and make this recipe off The Chew. It was my first recipe I have tried off The Chew and lets just say.... never again. I think I did it wrong. I like how it is labeled easy, like its mocking me. It took me way too long  by the time I did all the steps and then it tasted, just not good. I also have 4 other mouths to back up that not good story.

Looks can be deceiving , not good

June 2 months

June had her 2nd month check up.  She weighted 9 lb 7 oz at 11% 21.75 inches at 18 % and her head circumference 14.25 inches at 1 %. She is a little thing, but so was Kai around this time, Kai was a little longer. June has started smiling and I love it. Setting her on the ground is tricky because we have to play defense against her sister. June looks a little like Kai and even more like Maelani, I think. I try and keep her awake after Kai goes to bed, so I can look at those big blue eyes of hers.  They are so happy and so perfect. So much love in this house. I am thankful for everyday even the hards ones. I love you Juniper Rose.

Kai's Second bday fun

We started out with not many smiles

She just wanted to go see Nemo and eat cupcakes

But then considered playing

Everyone else was smiling

 More Smiles

Then we started to sing and the smiles came

We went for a ride

We had cake and pizza

Kai had a blast opening all her presents 

It took us a few days to get though all the wonderful presents , Thank you everyone!
