Indy Zoo

Our camera ran out of batteries for the Stromberg Easter gathering so I will have to get some from Jamie.....here are some pics from our trip to the zoo on Monday. Jamie, Nana, and I took the 4 kids and had a great time seeing the animals and watching the dolphin show... Liam had the best seat in the house! Look at those cheeks!

Charlotte was disappointed that the carousel was broken! We will have to ride it twice next time!

Jackson loved the Sharks!

Emily did really well and napped for the last 20 minutes we were there! We had wonderful weather and even had to put sunscreen on the kids!

Grandkid Easter Pic

Here are the cousins on the Blevins side....

Easter with Blevins family

We went on an easter CANDY hunt at Grandma and Grandpa Blevins house. We didn't even bother with easter eggs....the candy was what the kids wanted so that is what they got! Emily got a sucker which kept her busy and Jackson got a basket full of candy. This is one of my favorite pics of Emily showing her sassy side!

She isn't walking very far on her own, but can walk with minimal assistance now.

Jackson is so happy that it is nice outside!

Emily and Allison enjoying their suckers!

Uncle Lynn was tired after a big Easter dinner....I'm sure he will be pleased with this picture being posted on the blog! Sorry, Lynn!

Emily NEVER falls asleep in my arms! She would much rather just be put down in her crib to go to sleep so this was a treat for mommy.

Random Photos

Nana came to our house the other day and we realized that Emily and Nana matched! Green capri pants and pink shirts...not to mention the blonde hair and blue eyes! We found Emily sleeping like this the other night. She had her leg sticking out of her crib while sleeping sideways!

Short Videos

Jackson loves to make Emily laugh! These videos are short, but they are fun.

First Sucker

Emily is to the stage where if Jackson has something to eat or drink she wants the same thing. So, we tried out a little sucker the other day....of course she loved it!

First Year Stats

We took Emmy to the MD today for her one year appointment and here is how she is measuring up.....Weight 24.5 lbs (95th percentile), Height 32 in (off the charts) She is a healthy little girl!

Emily's first birthday!

Emily is ONE! I can hardly believe where the past year has gone! Here are a few pics from her birthday party!

Liam's first Cereal

On the night of Emily's first birthday, Liam had his first taste of baby cereal at Nana's house. He doesn't look too excited....in fact he really didn't like it on the first try! 4 months old already! He is really starting to fill out...look at those cheeks!

Here is a video of the first cereal.....he makes the most disgusted face and even kicks his legs to let us know what he thinks of it!

Nana's for Pizza

We went to Nana 's house for pizza the night of Emily's birthday. She really likes pizza right now! Jamie got her a tutu for her birthday that is just adorable! Nana got her the chair- Jack is happy because now she will stop using his chair!

Charlotte really has some long hair now! Emily is just hanging onto every word she says!

No more bottles for this big girl! We got rid of all of them now that she is one!

Emily's First Birthday!

Our little girl turned one on March 11. Mommy took the day off to spend the day with the birthday girl and Jack. We went to Chick fil a with Jamie, Charlotte, and Liam. Emily thinks she is tough stuff being able to play in the playland!

Her hair is really starting to grow!

She is still walking along the furniture and holding onto any thing that she can reach to get around, but no big steps yet!

Sectional Champs!

We got to go to a few of Tanner's games in the past month. Their high school varsity team won sectional a few weeks ago. Tyler and Jackson helped Tanner celebrate after their victory!

Vegas!

Tyler and I went on a trip to vegas in February with Heather and Todd. We had a great time.....it was nice to just get away!

Trip to the Park

It's finally starting to get nice outside. We had a 50 degree day so we took the kids to the park. It is so nice that Emily can ride in the wagon with Jackson this summer! We are ready to be outside more often!

Jackson sporting his ROCKY look with the gray sweatsuit!
