Arriving at Disney

Lucky for us, Justin had a trade show to work in Orlando the first week of April.  He flew down on April 1st.  Ray and I loaded up the kids on April 4th and made the LONG drive down.  It took us 22 hours and 9 stops with the kids.  Thankfully we were able to stay in Orlando for free because of all of Justin's traveling!  We spent our first evening (Thursday) taking a short ferry ride, having dinner and spending some time wandering Downtown Disney.

The girls at a CFA in Georgia, getting rid of some energy!

Florida has a lot of cool birds.

 We ate dinner outside at a place called Raglan's. Kaelin thought she was Aunt Jemima.

Hailey attempted to copy her. 

 Each night the girls received a special present from us that I had pre-purchased at home (A nightgown, shirt or toy for the next day).  
These nightgowns were the first night's present, they even came with eye masks!

The rest of March...

Here is our pre-Disney post (aka the end of March).  We had a lot going on as usual, but mainly Logan is getting so BIG!  

Logan's first restaurant high chair experience.  He seems to like it.

 The kids got a bath at Grandma Cindy's but I obviously didn't have Logan's tub....
I think maybe he is too big for the sink!

 Logan's new big boy carseat! (He is too long for the infant carrier!)

 Such a big boy watching Mickey with Sissy Hailey.

 awwwww.  Though I will admit I kept a close eye on Logan!

 Sitting 'by himself' haha

 The weekend before Easter we celebrated early with all of Justin's family.  Thank you to Aunt Amy, I didn't have to dye eggs at my house this year because we did them at her's! YEA!

Kaelin the Cheerleader 2012

Last Saturday was Kaelin's last cheer game for basketball.  Football starts in June.  She cheers through Upward - which is a Christian ministry though our church.  We LOVE it!

Here are some pictures:


I also took some video:

Papa Tom and Grandma Barb were able to come watch her last game.

Her coaches got the girls a cake - which they LOVED!

Monday night was her awards ceremony.  The girls did a short dance that was cute.
  

I loved the Upward program, coaches and how it was run! I can't wait for June for it to start up again. We are so blessed by our church!

Logan's Baby Dedication Video

Logan was dedicated!

On Sunday, March 4th, Logan was dedicated at our church.  It was a wonderful morning with our many of our family and friends there to support us!  

Here is a picture of Logan trying on his outfit for dedication.  
Aunti Amy (& Uncle Brad) got the outfit for him.

We had a potluck lunch at our home after the church service.  
His Great-Grandma Trezona made his cake! It was Yummy!!

Our Children's Pastor Cyle and Logan

 One of our church elders, Ted, praying over Justin and I.

 All done! Logan did a great job! We were very proud!

Someday I'll upload the video they made of all the parents prior to the service. We all stated what we wanted for our children and their futures.  The funniest comment was by Justin, "I want him to say he is a Steelers fan!"  hahahaha

Logan is 5 months!

Logan is 5 months! (Sunday - which was the same day as his dedication...pics to come.)
Still such a good baby!  He eats a tremendous amount! So far, he eats cereal/fruit for breakfast and veggies/fruit for dinner. (and a large amount of breastmilk/formula) He has eaten 2.5 containers of food for dinner!!  He can roll but usually chooses to just get to his belly and then play or yell.  He loves his voice this week...starting to yell instead of talk, it's very funny.





He isn't sitting up on his own, but tries to pull himself up and stays that way with support.


Logan and Hailey...

This blog is totally missing K, but don't worry, there will be a lot of her in a few days (pics of her last cheer game this coming Saturday!).

Logan has found his toes....LOVE it! Thought it does make diaper changing a challenge.


 Hailey's curls after I pinned them up for a bit.

Hailey enjoying some sunshine with Uncle Ray outside this week.

Our first crocus bloomed.
