Happy Father's Day!

We had such a good Father's Day! The day started with Natalie and I making Jeff's favorite breakfast, waffles with whipped creme and strawberries. Natalie is such a big help in the kitchen. After that we gave Jeff his gifts and got ready for church.

After church we tried to put Natalie down for a nap, but she cried out and I went in to see what was going on. I smelled poop as soon as I opened the door, I was talking to her as I was walking to the crib as I notice she has her diaper off and her hands in the mess!! I yelled for Jeff and told her not to move, but by the time we both got back, she had her diaper off and handed it to Jeff! I took her right to the bath and Jeff cleaned up the room, it was a great Father's Day surprise for him I am sure!

After that was cleaned up we loaded up the car to head to Don's and then to dinner, but the car wouldn't start!! So, we loaded up in Jeff's and headed to Don's. We dropped off the gifts and cake and then went to eat.

Natalie just cracks me up with her eating, every time I order her kids food, she just eats mine. Tonight she preferred my seafood chowder to her mac and cheese.

After dinner we headed back to Don's to give the dad's their gifts and to celebrate Suzanne's birthday, which is tomorrow. Natalie had a great time hanging out with everyone and she loves being the center of attention. Afterwards we took some family shots and headed home!

Last Wednesday we went to Kendra's and helped her with a couple of more things to get ready for the baby. Afterwards we took the kids to eat pizza. I loved the little July 4th outfit she has on and I got a great shot of all the kids!

Friday night we went to the Zoo PJ party. Natalie was hilarious as usual. This is a shot of us during story time. I don't give her juice, so when she gets it at events, she just goes crazy. It is pretty funny.

I just love super close ups of Natalie.

Natalie has a piggie bank that I got at my shower and she LOVES putting money in it!

This is Natalie enjoying her very first Popsicle! She thought it was the best!

Update!

We have been having such a good time! Here are some photos of a few recent activities. We are looking forward already to next weekend when we can celebrate Father's Day! This week we have a few fun things planned too.

Today we ran to Target to get somethings for a cookout we were having with Kendra and her family. Jeff and I love Starbucks, so we decided to start Natalie early! Actually, she is drinking whip cream, but she thinks she is pretty big stuff!

This is a photo of the kids hanging out with bubbles on the deck tonight before we ate.

On Sunday, Don came over to hang out with Natalie. I think you can tell from the photo that they had a great time.

After nap on Friday, Natalie brought out her hair bows and then decided that Riley needed to be wearing them. I give Riley a lot of crap, but she really is a good sport.

Friday we met Jeff for lunch at a great restaurant in Old Town. We ordered queso and Natalie just loves it. It was so funny to watch her eat it. She is getting so big!

On Thursday Emily came over to hang out with us for a little bit while her parents got some things done around the house. She just started standing on her own and it was so cute to see her standing by Natalie. She is ten months old this month.

On Wednesday we went to a class at the zoo to learn about penguins and ran into our friends Christina and her daughter Ingrid. We hung out at the zoo and then had lunch. The girls are so funny together.

Last Sunday when we were getting ready to go to church I realized that Jeff and Natalie were in matching outfits and I had to snap a photo.

Last Saturday I pulled Natalie's hair up into a ponytail for the first time. It was so cute on her and I couldn't believe her hair was long enough to pull it off! I will have to do it again.

A couple of weeks ago Emily came over and Natalie was nice enough to give her a ride! We are in trouble when they turn 16!
