The Burley's Maiden Voyage

We recently purchased a Burley bike trailer for Ella (& Gracie soon too) to ride in when we go on bike rides. Ella & Daddy tested it out for a few spins around the neighborhood. Ella was quite excited to wear her new pink bike helmet!

Happy Easter!

We had a wonderful Easter weekend back in Green Bay. The girls got to meet the Easter bunny, have a playdate with some of Mommy's friends from high school and their daughters, and hang out with their grandparents, uncles and aunt. The Easter Bunny did not disappoint and Ella did quite well with her first Easter egg hunt. She even helped find all of Gracie's eggs.

Gracie is 5 months old!

We had an exciting month full of "firsts" for little Gracie. For one, she is rolling in both directions now (back to belly and belly to back). She also had her first taste of rice cereal and loved it! We also introduced sweet potatoes and they are also a big hit. Grace is now enjoying sitting in the Bumbo seat and the exersaucer, and continues to love lying on her activity mat. She is very smiley and giggles a lot now too, especially when her belly is tickled or when Ella talks to her.

Happy after a meal of rice cereal... yum!

Visit from Ben & Jack

Angie, Marc, Ben & Jack visited us earlier this month and we had a blast! Gracie enjoyed playing on the floor with the boys and Ella especially enjoyed trying to guess which baby was which.
