This past weekend was my birthday (I turned 24.....no laughing!) and we went to visit Lita and Grandpa. The weather was so nice that Kellen wanted to spend all of his time outside. Here he is hanging out in the backyard with Shawn - He was having fun using a stick to dig holes to find little rocks!
April came to help celebrate my birthday and she brought Parker and Lauren!! Here are Grandpa and Auntie April relaxing and enjoying some time together.
....and here is Lauren hanging out with her Uncle Shawn and Grandpa.....I think she might be more interested in her toy than in Grandpa's story!
Lauren is getting so big! She already sits up all by herself, and she is so darn cute!!!! Here she is getting ready to head outdoors with Lita.
Here we are on a walk....now Lauren is looking at me like I am a bit crazy for always taking her picture! The weather was amazing over the weekend, so we had to take advantage of it and go for lots of walks.
Lita had a super old tricycle waiting for the boys to use while we were in town. Kellen is really good at pedaling a tricycle all by himself. He was able to go for a bicycle ride all the way around the entire block!
And after a long bike ride, Kellen decided that he needed to relax and watch a little Treehouse!
....and now getting a bit sleepy and wanting to cuddle with Mommy.
Kellen LOVES to play with play-dough! Luckily, Lita has some at her house, so Kellen decided it was time to pull it out and make some pretty cool shapes and letters!
Recently, Kellen learned how to spell his name! K-E-L-L-E-N!!!!
Kellen really enjoys helping out in the kitchen and helping mix things together when we are baking. So, Lita thought it would be lots of fun to make banana bread with Kellen! Kellen loved every minute of it, and was so proud of himself! Here he is breaking up the bananas.
.....and still breaking up the bananas.....it is banana bread after all!
Now helping Lita measure and pour the flour....he was pretty excited that Lita let him actually scoop the flour (and I was pretty shocked that Lita would let a little guy do this....as there was a bit of a mess!)
Catching Shawn off guard while taking a picture of Parker and Kellen setting up the Thomas train tracks.
Lita was showing Kellen how the treadmill worked. Kellen wasn't too sure how much he liked the idea of the floor moving underneath his feet....however, Parker loves the treadmill! Parker quickly came over to see what was going on and see if he could show Kellen how to use the treadmill.
After Kellen's banana bread was done baking, everyone quickly went to grab a piece! And the verdict was.....DELICIOUS!!!
A funny shot of Shawn and Kellen....can you tell that they were not prepared for the camera!?!?
And another funny shot - but this one is of Lita and Parker. Just like April when she was little, Parker likes to make silly faces when you take his picture!
