More 4 month pics

Emily is now rolling over and enjoying her tummy time. She has figured out it is a lot more interesting to look around on her tummy than lay on her back and stare at the ceiling.


Piper and Emily

We went to the 4-H fair in Bluffton this weekend with Jamie and Charlotte and Heather and Todd and family. This is the only time I got my camera out (I am definitely slacking). Griffin, Charlotte, and Jack were napping so this pic of Emily and Piper is it for the weekend. I'll try to do better next time! This picture accurately shows how much Emily has grown lately. They both got their diapers changed and hadn't gotten their pants back on yet. Look at the rolls on those thighs!


Happy Birthday Tim!

We had Katelyn and Stella (our college bound neice and her friend) come down and babysit the kids while we went to Tim's suprise birthday party. A good time was had by all and Jamie did a great job planning. She even hired a DJ who played only 80s music. What we didn't know is that he came complete with mullet hairdo!! Tyler made Tim "The Fagin Slapshot" which is a hockey stick with 3 shot glasses attached to it for all 3 Fagin brothers to take a shot together. It was a big hit and by the end of the night the servers at the bar even wanted to take shots with Tyler since he made the contraption.

Here you go, Betsy! I take requests from the Hunt family about blog content. Jane wanted to see more Charlotte and Betsy just wanted to see a pic of herself. Jamie's baby bump is growing!



4 months old

Our little girl is now 4 months old. We will take her on tuesday to the doctor for her checkup and will let you know her size then. Jackson also goes for his 2 1/2 year check on tuesday. We started feeding Emily cereal last week and this was her reaction. They say that cereal helps a baby sleep, but I don't think they meant that they should fall asleep eating it.


4th of July Weekend

We went camping over the 4th and Grandma and Grandpa Blevins brought their trailer to the campground, too. Grandpa's twin brother and his wife and Lynn and Tina and family came along, too. Jackson spent a lot of time with Grandpa.


Emily spent a lot of time with Grandma...


Our favorite addition to the campsite is a tractor tire that Dan brought for Jackson. Then the campground filled it with sand for us. He spent the majority of the weekend there when he wasn't swimming, catching frogs with Daddy, or at the park with Mommy.


Our Blevins boys playing cornhole




Fishers Parade

We went to the Fishers Freedom Festival parade. Emily wasn't so sure about the sirens and loud music so she just laid around looking pretty.
Jackson loved the tractors and fire engines. He waved to everyone. .




Carol and Michael Stanton went with us. This is a yearly event for us to go together and then get some greasy fair food!

Happy Father's Day

Daddy had a good father's day. He went golfing last weekend on Father's Day and then this weekend he went to a Cubs/Sox game in Chicago.














Random Pics

Every once in a while Emily will suck her thumb....maybe we have another thumb sucker? She is starting to get strong enough to sit in the bumbo chair!

Charlotte being silly sitting in the baby swing. She likes it more now than when she was a baby!


We got a new kiddie pool and Charlotte and Jackson got in it the other night even though we had just filled it up and it was very cold. I think Charlotte's lips got a little blue, but they had fun.

It has been really hot this week so the pool really came in handy!!





Neighborhood Pool

We went to the neighborhood pool with Jamie, Tim, and Charlotte. I am going to try to post more pictures of Charlotte per Jane Hunt's request!! Both Charlotte and Jackson are great swimmers and love the pool. Emily just likes being outside....









Trip to Buffalo Wild Wings

I came home from work to find that Emily had been dressed in a hat by the girls next door. It reminds me of Little House on the Prarie.
Emily went to BW3's with us the other night and she slept right through all the noise and activity. I tried to rock her to sleep the other day and she cried....all she wants now is to be laid down and she goes to sleep on her own.

3 months old

Emily is 3 months old tomorrow. Time flies! Here are some random pictures Tyler took the other day.









Big Brother loves his sister

Right now, while Emily shares her toys and does not try to take his, Jackson really loves his sister. He likes to crawl under her activity mat with her and play.





Jackson's summer

Jackson's summer is off to a good start (other than the fact that mommy had to go back to work). He went swimming 3 times this past weekend.... He helped daddy mow the yard...
He eats ice cream like it is going out of style.....


and he loves corn on the cob. We went to Josh and Amanda's house for dinner on Saturday and he really liked eating corn! Josh and Amanda say he is an odd child since he will eat salad, tomatoes, and carrots before anything else on his dinner plate.





Mommy's Day Off

I went back towork (yes, full time) the day after labor day. Our department was closed last Friday for a computer upgrade so I got to spend another full day with Jack and Emily.
Emily sat patiently in the stroller while Jackson played at the playground.








Here is my new "limo" stroller. Emily can sit in the seat or her car seat and Jackson can sit or stand at the back. They both love it and daddy really likes it since he doesn't have to come on as many walks...mommy can now push both of them by herself! I should've gotten this a long time ago, but I had a hard time making up my mind which one to get.

Emily Video

Emily is really smiling and getting excited now. Here is a video Tyler took last week...
