Question of Time

June has arrived and has thankfully brought some warm, sunny weather!  Lily had a good few days at school playing outside and creating lots of art - we have decided that we need to start sending large bulk packages of artwork to family members as it is becoming a little overwhelming and the two large corkboards that we hung in the basement to display such art are crammed! 

Jack has been just as busy, rolling all over the place, and he nows enjoys sleeping on his stomach. He still needs a little support sitting up, but we suspect doing it on his own is just around the corner.  He has been eating like a champ, close to 8 oz every 3 hours, and once that 3 hour mark hits, his bottle better be ready or we will hear about it. ;)  Oatmeal with bananas has been on the menu for the past few weeks and he had his first taste of sweet potatoes this week which he seems to enjoy quite a bit - tomorrow we are moving on to peas - yummy!

Mom, Lily and Jack headed to the lake this weekend to visit with Grandma Gail, Grandpa Tom, and lake neighbors Annie and Pat.  (Dad stayed home and got some painting done which is pretty much impossible to do with the kiddies around.)  Lily was on the go all weekend, riding the seadoo, pontooning, playing in the sandbox, running in the Diego sprinkler, playing on the swingset, and otherwise just running from one activity to another.  She  likes to "go fast" on the seadoo, and likes to wave to every single boat and jet ski that passes.  She has definitely become a lot more confident around the water, although she is still a bit hesitant to touch the bottom of the lake with her feet - some water shoes might help!  Jack enjoyed some time on the pontoon, and got in some good naps, and is looking forward to hanging out in the whale float for the 4th of July weekend once the water is warmer.

Lily and Jack want to send out Happy Birthday hugs and kisses to Aunt Kelly who turns the big 30 on Thursday!

Enjoy the pics!
