Max and I went on a date last night. We went and ate cheese dip, went to the store, and went to see Madagascar 3. I was so glad to be able to spend time with Max. He is growing up so fast and we had the best time.

 

Eli is now 4.5 months old. He is wearing 9-12 month clothes and is in a size 3 diaper. He takes 1 long nap in the afternoon and 2 cat naps throughout the day. He goes to bed each night between 6-7 and wakes up at 7 in the morning. Last week, he started eating baby food. So far, he has had oatmeal cereal, green beans, peas, and sweet potatoes. He is a good eater and loves to eat!

Yesterday I turned 29. We celebrated all day and had a great day! Sheldon got up with the boys and cooked a big breakfast for us.

 

After breakfast, our babysitter's mom called and they wanted to take the boys to the waterpark for the day. So, we got them ready and off they went.

 

Sheldon and Eli took me to a really nice steakhouse for a late lunch. It was so good and we really enjoyed it.

 

We received pictures and updates throughout the day and the big boys had an absolute blast!

 They went to the water park, the park, McDonald's, and to play putt putt golf. They didn't get home until almost 10. They really celebrated my day hard!

 

I had a great day and felt so special all day long. My parents sent me beautiful flowers. My birthday gift from Sheldon and my parents was a new mixer which I am thrilled about! Let the baking begin!

The boys Nanny and Grampy sent them another fun toy in the mail. They have been patiently waiting for Sheldon to have a day off to put it together. Today was the day and the boys helped him assemble their toy this morning. They are having the best time on their new trampoline and we are so excited to have one!

 

My parents send the boys fun surprises from time to time. They really hit it out of the park with this gem that they had shipped in. Max and Crocker love it and it has been so much fun!

Max has started off his summer by attending the program at our local library. It is for an hour 1x a week and he really loves going.
 

Crocker has been a little upset that he can't go too (you have to be 3). So we have been having dates to go and get donuts and chocolate milk when we drop Max off.


 I think Crocker would tell you that he is getting the better end of the deal!
