Late Night Swing!

We took Lydia outside for a little swing action before her bedtime.

She loved it!

She had a crawling accident

and rubbed the side of her nose right off!

So sad!

Pulling Up!

I went in to pick up Lydia from her nap, 

and look how I found her!

She pulled herself up on her knees

and was just chewing away on her crib, 

sharpening her two little teeth.

She was pretty proud of herself 

and didn't mind posing for the camera.

Such a sweet baby!

New Friend!

Our neighbors/friends had a baby two months ago.

Here she is!

Lydia has a new little playmate!  :)  

Aquarium Finale!

We weren't having much luck in the butterfly room, 

until we found a friendly young man who was really good at catching butterflies.

He would catch them and then hand them off to the boys!

Caleb's face absolutely cracks me up!!!

He wanted to touch that butterfly, I think.

Too funny!

Josiah checking out the jellies!

The boys in with crabs and sea stars!

The boys weren't in the mood to smile for the camera.  ha!

We had such a good time!

Thanks, Mother Dear!!!

More Aquarium Fun!

Here are the boys trying to touch some fish.

I love how you can see them both following the rules 

and using only two fingers.  Cute!  

Penguins!

We got to talk to a scuba diver

who was swimming with sharks!

Stay tuned for some butterfly action tomorrow!

Tennessee Aquarium!

Last Friday my mom took us to the Tennessee Aquarium

to celebrate her spring break!

We had such a great time!

If you look in the top left of the picture below, you'll see an otter swimming by!

We got to watch the otters in this room for a while.

They were putting on a fun show just for us!

Lydia liked to look at the fish in the tanks.

She sat happily in her stroller the whole time!

Come back tomorrow for part two of our exciting trip!

Color Run!

If you thought there were a lot of pictures on yesterday's post, 

hold on to your hat because there are twice as many today!

Last Saturday a few friends got together in Chattanooga to run a 5K.

Here are all of us gals before the big race:

We made colorful headbands to wear during the race.

Our faithful fan club:

At four different locations during the race

people threw colored powder at you.

It was soooo much fun!!!

The sisters' bling all colored up!

We trained for months using a program called 

"Couch to 5k", 

and it worked!

Fun! Fun! Fun!
