Jake's little brother, Caleb, is one week older then Addison and quite fond of her too! Maybe... |

Our first camping trip May 18-21st at Holland State Park (we wanted to be close to home just in case). It was a huge success!! The kids (and Mommy and Daddy) loved it! Thank goodness the trailer has air conditioning though, I can't believe 90 degree temps in mid May! |

Addy wanted to be just like her big brother and REFUSED to put a shirt on! |

So Sweet! |
I can hardly believe that it's been almost a year since my last entry! Time flies! Well, I've missed a few seasons, but here's my grand attempt at a catch up!
Ethan and Addison are growing up so fast and are just so much fun! I can hardly stand to be away from them! Ethan has learned so much in preschool and is looking forward to Kindergarten! I'm a little unsure with Kindergarten changing to all day/every day now. I think that's a little too much for a 5y/o, it will be a big adjustment for sure! His new passion is cooking! He love, love, loves to help in the kitchen! He's always asking if he can help me "make" something. He also loves to watch cooking shows on tv, his favorite chef is Ina of the Barefoot Contessa! Derek and I really enjoy watching too!
Addison is talking up a storm! She's just as sassy as she is sweet and boy does she have a mind of her own! She adores her big brother and wants to do everything like him. She's fearless as well. Ethan was always so cautious, not her!! We took her pacifier away about a month ago and since then she has boycotted her afternoon naps....she actually does really well w/o one, but it was nice to have that down time in the afternoon. It's also so surprising b/c Ethan would still take naps up to 4! Oh well, guess our afternoons will be busy, busy, busy this summer!!
Derek and I just bought a camper and we couldn't be more excited! It's a 31' Jayco, with 2 slide outs and one set of bunk beds. The kids LOVE it! We did our first camping trip a couple weeks ago and everything went great! We can't wait to go again and are busy planning out the rest of the summer!! I hope to stay on top of our adventures this summer!
