Thats right - Chris, Melissa, Tessa Girl and Deccie ARE BACK!!! When I moved to Chicago about 3 years ago Chris and Melissa moved to Baltimore 3 months later. Crazy how that timing happened - but I waited and waited and they are back and now a family of 4. What a fun trip we had up to Evanston to see Tessa Girl and meet Deccie for the first time!!! Tessa was such a big girl I could barely believe it and Deccie was the sweetest little thing. I love that Will can grow up near his cousins.

Lost in the jungle
After the 3rd time this morning Will pulled the whole jungle mat down on himself I figured he can squirm a little while I snap a picture!
Pretty in pink
Juliana was so nice to have all her little boyfriends over today. Juliana is typically the only girl in the playgroup crew so we all like to take turns holding her to keep her safe from the rough boys. It was a nice change today to see the boys on pink blankets and playing with baby dolls! Thanks Juliana for showing the boys a sneak peak into your world.
Destroying the doctors office
On Monday we had Will's 6 month check-up and Jason and I were dying laughing as we waiting for Dr. J how different this trip was then the other checkups. At the 1 and 2 month checkups we were so careful with Will keeping him wrapped in a blanket the whole time, rocking and feeding him to make sure he was comfortable. At 4 months he was a little braver but still wanted to be close to his mommy and daddy. Now at 6 months we thought we was going to destroy the whole room! He banged his feet on every surface we let him "stand on," destroyed as much paper on the table as he could get his hands on and grabbed at every everything Dr. J used to make sure he was growing like a good boy!
Will was a great boy for the doctor and is growing like crazy: 6 months - 17lbs and 27 inches! See you in 3 months Dr. J - who knows maybe Will will be running around the office on our next visit :)
Look what I did in about 30 seconds

The little fishes of Kenmore
What do you get when you add sun, heat, pavement, wood chips, mini blow up bath tub and swim diapers - A SUMMER DAY ON KENMORE!!! We fixed up our "front lawn" with blankets and the swimming pool and had Will's buds over. Best $14 dollars I have spent in a long time - the pool is the most used thing in our house these days.
"Front Lawn" turned play yard
Even 10 week old Liam wanted to take a dip!
Two little buds just a sittin' in the tub!
Miss Lindsay's Shower Weekend in Connecticut
This past weekend Will and I took a trip home to CT for Miss Lindsays wedding shower. It was a beautiful weekend and we had so much fun seeing everyone! On Thursday and Friday Jamesy boy and Em came down to MoMo's and Grandpa's house. We did so many fun things! Built big big towers, read books, went swimming, played on the swings and even got to eat at Shady Glenn - YUMMMMMY!!!
Awesome new addition to my parents back yard - Will was Mr. Chill in this swing
Jamesy built a big tower with me - then someone knocked it down :)
Will with all his "ugly friends" - Thanks Cousin Maura!
On Sunday it was Miss Lindsay's Bridal Shower. It was so beautiful and my mom and I had a great time while Will and Grandpa stayed home and "rough housed" together. I left my dad some instructions for Will about when he should eat and nap and when I got home I had a little report on everything they had done that day! My dad acts like he doesn't know what to do with babies - but he can't fool me he had it all under control and when I got home Will was down for a second nap! Super Grandpa!!!
Recap from the babysitter - notice the "2 good farts" at 3:02 followed up by a "big time diaper" at 3:10
