Bubbles!

I say this every time I post, but Landon is more and more fun everyday.  He is really starting to blow bubbles and jabber.  It is so fun to see how excited he gets when he plays!

We Can't Wait!

Summer is right around the corner and we can't wait!  Landon and I went on a walk one night with my good friend Megan and her daughter Jadyn.  Landon loves riding in the stroller.  Megan and I have plans with some other teachers to go for walks and have play dates this summer.  Hopefully everyone will be able to join us!

3 Months!

Landon is now 3 months old! Wow, how time flies. He is really growing and changing everyday.  He is starting to fill out as well.


Some of our highlights these days are:

- Likes to sit up like a big boy.

- Is a TV junkie!  He likes to sit on Dad's lap and watch TV

- Really starting to jabber and blow bubbles.  Especially in the mornings.

- Has conversations with people in his language!  Definitely interacting a lot more.

- Recognizes his name and smiles when you talk to him.

- Starting to shoot mom when we change his diaper :)

- Loves to lay under his playmat and hit his toys.  His legs are moving a ton too when he gets excited and is playing on the floor or in his bouncer.

- Loves going for walks and loves to shop! He likes his stroller.

He is getting to be such a big boy!

Fiesta for the Engels!

The dads hanging out with their babies!

One of my closest friends is moving away at the end of the month to Scottsbluff and we decided to throw her and Ryan a Fiesta!  Everyone brought a mexican dish and we spent the evening watching all the kids interact, watching who got kicked off American Idol and just vegging.  It was also kind of a yucky night as we were in a tornado warning prior to the party beginning.  Thank goodness for a basement.  

Kelsey and I started teaching together and went through Grad School/Research together.  Over the years we have became so close and it is so hard to see her go.  However, I know we will keep in touch and I know it is best for her family.  Everyone was able to make it except the Elsbury's who were spending time together as a family and the Boslau's who are in the process of moving to a new house. I can't imagine what my house would have been like with 4 more adults and 2 more kiddos.  We were pretty crowded and everywhere you turned there was a little tike!  What an awesome night with friends.  I can't wait for this summer.

Landon's Baptism!

On Mother's Day we traveled to my Grandparents church to baptize Landon.  It was a very special day for us!

Teacher Appreciation!

 Thanks Sindelar Family for the wonderful cookie!

 My kids loved the cookie!  What a great group of kiddos!

May Day!

I loved May Day as a child and really wanted to deliver baskets to our friends this Sunday, but figured I would wait until Landon got a little bigger.  (Maybe next year)  We were sitting at home and all of a sudden our doorbell rang.  It was one of my students with a May Day basket for Landon.  It was such a great surprise!  Thanks Payton for thinking of him!
