Houseful!

We went to Montana to celebrate Lizzie's first birthday and then my sister and her kiddos came to stay with us from Monday-Friday!  It was bittersweet.  They are moving to North Carolina in about a month and it'll be a long time before we are reunited again with the kids.  It was nice to be able to spend the week with them;  Her husband was in NC house hunting so we didn't get to spend time with him though.

E wasn't too sure about P to start out with...but I think they were becoming buds by Friday.

L was great with P!

and P loved them both!

We didn't really take too many pictures while they were here, and we should have taken more *kicking myself trust me* but many memories were made and I am so happy that they were able to spend some time with us before their big move.

boy oh boy

If this is what my house is going to be like for the next 18+ years....

..I am definitely okay with that.

..........................................................................

P man isn't loving his car seat currently...he is fine once he's strapped in for the most part but getting there is like pulling teeth sometimes.

I know I say this almost every month, but, sheesh! He is G.R.O.W.I.N.G. fast!  He is so fun!  He loves to play and be independent but loves to play with us too!

His smiles and crabbiness are contagious.  He finds joy in the littlest things.

He is exploring his new found territory now that he is mobile.  I know he will become WAY MORE mobile soon, but for now I can keep up with him.
