William’s First Wichita Trip

Nick decided to take his paternity leave to go along with the ending of his master. So he has spent the "vacation” working on papers and projects. He decided to finish the last ones in Wichita! So we loaded up the kids and hit the road for a way too short (for the long drive) trip! Here are some pictures of the fun with Grandpa Ross & Grandma Jenna. Great Grandma Searl even got to meet her newest Great Grand child.

Yep, even babies get dirty at Grandma’s and need a bath. Look at this almost 4 month old cutie!

Early Birthday

Great Grandma Searl gave Madeline her birthday present. Then they had a tea party!

Sweet Tarts

After nap Madeline enjoyed a special treat of sweet tarts. Nick and I couldn’t stop smiling when she told us all about her sweet tarts. I hope it makes you smile too!

Thanks Grandpa Ross and Grandma Jenna for the whistle. We will be sure and bring it with us when we come to visit.

Sunday

We were actually ready 15 minutes early for church so we snapped a few pictures.

On Our Way To The Bank

We were about to live on our Saturday morning adventure to the bank. While we were waiting for Daddy I took a little video interview of Madeline. I sure don’t want to forget the cute way she talks!

Outside

Will loves to look outside after breakfast. He sure thought something was funny out there. He laughed and laughed and of course stopped right when I got the camera.

Will’s 15 Week Checkup

Yep, 15 Week…kind of random but the closest to 2 months I could get him in. So we just covered the 2 month well baby visit and the 4 month well baby visit in one visit.

Our Will weighed in at 14.9 pounds, 26 inches long, with a 17 inch head. With those measurements it puts him in the 50 percentile in weight, 89 percentile in length and90 percentile in head size (to hold all his big brains). He is meeting all the developmental benchmarks and doing great. He was sleeping great at night but the last week or so he has decided to wake up a few extra times. He is starting to nap better during the day and boy is he a smiling giggling kind of guy. He loves to talk. If only we could figure out what he is saying. He loves nightly bath time with Madeline. He can shake a rattle super loud and sometimes even scares himself with the noise.  His Bumbo is his favorite seat and would stay there forever. He is the happiest when you are holding him so he can stand or sit up. He likes to be right in the middle of everything and not left out. You will know when he isn’t happy because he does NOT have a soft cry. Here are some pictures after we got home from our Dr. visit.

Look at those cute legs, not quite as chubby as Maddie Grace’s.

Look at those blue eyes and he sure has found his tongue in the last few weeks.

Doggie?

Uncle Eric and Aunt Sally sent Will this doggie costume. He finally fit in it so on a CRAZY Friday night we had a Schindler costume party.  Of course Madeline wanted to try it on too!

  We sure did have a dog gone good time!  I’m not sure we have laughed so hard in a long time. The funniest part was Madeline saying that the outfit “no fit” Will and that it fit her.
