Five Months Old

Megan is five months old today. She is rolling over now and holding her head up really well. She is getting to be so strong. As soon as you lay her down she immediately rolls over. She is eating cereal and various baby foods. So far she seems to like everything she has tried. She is sleeping now most nights 7-8 hours, waking up around 5, eating and then going back to sleep for a couple of more hours which has been great. At her well-check appointment last week she weighed 18lbs, 9 ozs. and was 26 1/2 inches long. She was over the 95th percentile for both weight and height which isn't surprising by looking her. She is a big girl, but so sweet and such a happy baby. We love her so much.

Vacation 2010

This year on vacation we stayed at Phoenix on the Bay in Orange Beach, Alabama. We did not stay on the beach like we normally do because of the big oil spill in the ocean that had caused oil to start creeping into the gulf. The place we stayed was really nice and had a waterslide, a lazy river and a great kiddie pool. Both sides of our family were there so it was nice to see the whole family. All of the kids had fun playing together. Megan did great on her first long trip. She spent most of her time napping by the pool. She liked the water, but seemed to prefer just sitting and watching everyone when she wasn't asleep. We missed the ocean, but this was a nice alternative and made for a great vacation.

Baseball Party

We had our end of the season baseball party last night for Tyler's team. It was a pool party at one of the player's neighborhood pool. It rained some, so the boys didn't get to swim much, but they all enjoyed hamburgers and hotdogs, cake, and receiving their trophies. John really enjoyed his team this year and had a lot of great kids and parents. It was a fun night and a great end to a great season.
