Rice Cereal

Sorry I haven't posted in a while! It's harder to get some time to sit down and blog while having two.. little ones in the house. This week I didn't have Jaylin until 2 o'clock however, due to Spring Break. Anyway, Lyla has been eating rice cereal once a day (around dinner time) for almost a month now. She did really well the first time!

Preparing for the first bite! I love her look of concentration!
She was slinging her arms around out of excitement too.

You can kinda tell in this picture how she is leaning foward. She still does this.. It's like we're not shoveling it in fast enough, so she helps us out by shooting foward! Sometimes she does it so fast and unexpectadly that we miss the mouth and end up giving her chin a rice cereal 'facial'. lol

Trying to figure out what the pink thing around her neck is...

MORE PLEASE!!!

Helping daddy out. Sometimes it's a team effort to feed her. One holds the hands down and the other spoons it in. ;) She's doing better not grabbing the spoon. Now we are teaching her not to play with the food currently in her mouth. lol

This picture says "Thanks mom and dad!" to me... CUTE!

The weather has been soooooooooooooooooo beautiful! I absolutley love being outdoors and with the warmer weather Lyla, Jaylin, and I are able to get out of the house a little more! It does good for the spirit I think, to get outside and see the beauty that God set in motion. I stole the great idea from Jana to throw a blanket on the ground, grab a book, and let the kids play with some toys in the backyard. Very relaxing... and the girls loved it too! They did have to adjust to the sun and wind a little.

Saturday, Casey, Lyla, and I woke up to another beautiful day and went to Old Post Park. We had just bought Lyla a cute little summer dress. We quickly changed her into it ( yes yes i know.. we didn't wash it first... lol ;) ) and took Lyla's first Spring Pictures!! We also took a nap and relaxed under some big trees that shaded us.

Enjoy!

We love love love her laugh!!

Relaxing....

This was the first time we sat her in green grass. She was very intrigued.

This was a shot we worked hard for !! We propped her up, leaned her against the tree, and right as she looked up Casey snapped the photo and got the priceless expresion. Ok so I guess we didn't work that hard... just got lucky.

I really like the bright green grass on this one.

One of my favorites.
