We would like to introduce.....

Caleb David! He arrived yesterday, May 30th, in the afternoon weighing 6 lbs 15 ounces. We are all doing great and so thankful he is here and healthy:) Maddie loves Caleb so much and it has been fun watching her interact with him at the hospital. Bob and I are excited to be a family of 4 and feel so thankful. Thank you for those who prayed for Caleb and for a safe delivery! Here are a few pictures.

Pool fun!

Thankfully the pools opened this weekend since it was 95 degrees!

She loves to pose! Wearing my headband and heels that she picked out herself.

The Green Potty

There is a new house going up across the street and A few weeks ago Maddie asked me what that green thing was across the street. I told her it was a potty for the workers to go potty in. Her curious mind asked tons and tons of questions. But where Does the potty go? Who goes in there? Does it smell? A big one for 3 year olds is why? She has many names for this potty. She calls is the green potty, the sports potty, and the smelly potty. It sounds crazy, but she became so fixated of this potty that for a whole week she was getting up every 2 hours coming in our room telling us she was scared of the green potty. That made for some long nights.

So yesterday while we were outside doing the slip n slide we had a celebration as we saw the "green potty" being taken away. She was clapping and very excited to never see it again. I have to say I was very excited to see it go myself so we wouldn't have to have continuous conversations about the green potty and losing sleep over this silly potty. Haha

Park fun!

It has been so beautiful out, so today after her follow up appointment from her surgery we headed to Wilder Park. Elmhurst has the best parks for kids!

Play dates

Maddie and her friend Georgia playing dress up:) Maddie went to G's on Monday for a play date and they always have the best time together! Here is a pic of the goof balls!

Last day of school

Maddie had her last day of school on Monday. It's so hard to believe that the year flew by so quickly!! She loves school, but I think we are all ready for a little less routine and some summer fun!

Slip n Slide

Nothing better than running through cold hose water on a 90 degree day! I think summer is here! The pools all open next weekend so we are gearing up for the hot summer!:)

28 days, but who's counting?

We are ready for you Caleb! Can't wait to meet you in less than 4 weeks! We hope you like your room and find it a cozy place to sleep!

Ballet

Maddie and her friend Georgia are going to take a ballet class together this summer at a dance studio. I am so excited to see all the little 3 years olds dressed in their ballet uniform:) I am convinced she may never take it off....:)

A few recent pics:)

You can see how silly she is by these pictures:) she's full of personality and I love it!

6 more weeks!
