Zoe's 1 Month Old, Center Grove Apple Orchard, and More

Zoe's almost a month old already.  Time seems to be passing quicker this time.  She's doing well and is generally content. . . unless she's hungry when we hear about it, especially when in the car on a deadline to get to one of Amelia's (many) activities.  Amelia is a great big sister, always trying to entertain Zoe and willing to help.

Sept 22nd

We finally took Daddy to the Center Grove Apple Orchard  couple of weeks ago.  Amelia and Kevin completed the corn maze in only one visit (it took us three last year) and Amelia had a great time going down the slide and trying out all the new activities at the orchard.  Zoe enjoyed napping in the sling.  Ironically, due to the spring freeze there's no apple picking this year, but we'll still have a great time all Fall.

Zoe comes home

We are settling into life at home as a family of four with lots of help from Grandma Marilyn and a visit from Grandma Becky, Grandpa Jim and Uncle Mark.

Amelia's first day of school

Amelia had her first day of Pre-K on Wednesday.  This is her second year and she is excited to be back in school.

Welcome Zoe

It has been a busy couple of days, but everyone is healthy and happy.  Zoe has been doing great and loves being held by her big sister.  Amelia is taking things well and sometimes get jelous when others hold "her baby".  Today we came home from the hospital and are adjusting to our new schedule.  Below are some pictures with more to follow.

Amelia's 4th Birthday

Where did four years go?  Amelia had a lot of fun with her friends at her birthday party (Dora themed).  They had to follow "Map" to get to the pinata.  On her actual birthday we spent the day at the outdoor pool then had fun opening presents in the evening.

Dora had a little trouble staying upright on her cake :)

Last T-Ball Game

After an early start at gymnastics we made it to T-Ball for Amelia's last game.  She's actually better at hitting the ball when it's thrown to her than off the tee but Mummy was very impressed with her fielding (with the heat I haven't made it to a practice since the first week).

Tumbling Meet

Amelia had her tumbling meet this weekend at gymnastics.  She had a great time and came in 4th out of 9 four year olds.  Not bad considering she only turned four 5 days ago.  Mummy was excited that her hair stayed in place.  There's a lot of clips and hair spray (yes, yes I know, crazy on a 4 year old) involved, especially when trying to keep back the 1" section of bangs that a certain little girl decided to chop a couple of months ago.
