3 years and 3 months

I decided to take a break from packing, painting, and decluttering to catch up on a little blogging. A couple weeks ago we celebrated Danny's 3rd birthday with a rocket birthday party at the park. The kids had fun building and painting their own rockets (with some help from moms).
Danny's lunch request was his dad's chicken wings. YUM!
We hunted for moon rocks (candy wrapped in foil), had a real rocket launch (and lost the rocket), broke open a rocket pinata, and ate rocket cake.



We had a family party on his actual birthday with presents and a treasure hunt provided by Leah. We love our busy 3 year old. It is so fun to watch him learning his letters, starting to draw pictures, helping around the house, negotiating punishments, and making jokes.

Kaylee hit her 3 month mark a few weeks ago too. She's starting to play with toys and really notice everything around her. She likes being upright in her exersaucer, the bumbo, or the bjorn. And her smile just keeps getting bigger and bigger!

Here she is with Aunt Lisa.
At the zoo with dad.
At the pumpkin patch with Danny and our friend Hailey. In her Bumbo chair with a toy.
And looking pretty on Sunday.
Sure love these two! They are growing up TOO FAST! But it's so much fun. Time to get back to packing.
