Exersaucer

Kate has started using the exersaucer a bit, she enjoys looking at stuff but hasn't really started interacting with the toys on it yet.

Laundry basket ride

Lucy and Kate enjoyed riding around in the laundry basket!  Look back to summer of 2012 and you will find pics of Jaydon and Lucy doing the same thing.  I am too behind in blogging to go link the older post :-)

Painting

Grandma and Gram got the kids these super fun Pallet Pages water colors book where you just need water and a paintbrush.  They have had a great time!

Superbowl Sunday

Oh the heartbreak, oh the sadness, it was a rough end to the game but we are proud of our team!

Some pre-game spirit pictures with the family

M's FanFest

We had a great time at Mariner's Fan Fest this year.  It was the first year we have attended and of course since there is a lot more excitement about the team, it was the first year in a long time that it was really busy!

Touring the clubhouse and training room

Taking questions in the interview room

Out on the diamond

The Bone on the big screen answering questions, we walked by where he was.

Just chillin' in the dugout

A foul ball that landed in the broadcasting room

Ahhh, proof they love each other!

Doing a fun slide

Trying on some players gear, Jaydon was in Zunino and Lucy was wearing Miller

Our little all-stars

Pitching like the King

Hanging with some life-size players

What a fun family experience. Here's hoping we will start making this an annual thing.

"Picnic" lunch

We were all bummed, Jaydon was going to get to have a sack lunch with a neighbor before heading to school while Lucy, Kate and I went to a child development class to talk to high schoolers about little kids.  Unfortunately Lucy came down with a fever at the last minute so we had to cancel.  Jaydon was quite bummed so I let him have a sack lunch picnic in the living room - not the same but he was somewhat appeased.

Kate is 3 months!

How does time keep going by faster and faster?  Kate is 3 months old and is such a happy little girl.  She loves to smile and interact with her family.  She has just started sort of grabbing a toy, it doesn't last long and she doesn't do it much on her own.  She is growing really well and continues to be a healthy little one.  She did catch her first true snotty nose with a cough (which was my first experience with a pretty young baby having a cough and it was no fun for me) but she handled it quite well. She likes to sit propped up against the couch to watch what is going on around her.  She also still enjoys playing on her playmat.  The mirror and looking at herself is a big hit and she loves having bath time each night when she is up on the counter in her big blow up tub and can sit and stare at herself in the mirror.  People ask how we are sleeping, and at this point it is great because she sleeps right with me!  We almost never have to get out of bed in the night and just roll over to nurse a couple times.  She has just started thinking I am her pacifier so check back next month to see how sleep training goes as I am sure we will start that near 4 months and the story will probably change.  She truly is a happy and content little girl and we are so blessed to have her.
