Spring is in her hair...

...but not in today's air.  It was about 40 degrees at the playground this evening and Max kept his sweatshirt on for a full 40 seconds, too.

Full bloom hair do 

Top notch security over here 

Kira's messiest meal yet! She very literally tried to stuff her face.  Every time the spoon went in her mouth she immediately jammed her fist in to push the food down.  Pretty sure she is not allergic to sweet potatoes, time for a new food tomorrow!

Sleep opposites

Max slept until 8am!  May have something to do with the fact that he was WIDE awake from 2am to 4:30am.

On the other end of the sleep spectrum, Kira took a 4 hour morning nap!  

Rolling action all day long

Bowling with daddy 

Double the bubble fun

After the dinner, came the double bath.  Timmy asked if was going to sleep here, too.  The real question is- 'Is Max going to SLEEP here?'

Kira is ready for summer!! Mommy and her girl went thrifting (a real fancy way of saying that we went shopping at Goodwill) and found this adorable blankey, swim suit, hat, and lots more for a steal.  Second hand swimsuits are totally acceptable when you wear a diaper underneath.  

Now that she can roll over, this is Kira's new hangout position.  She has not learned how to roll back over yet, but this is a good angle for draining drool and spit-up.

Kira's new thing is sticking out her tongue and spitting. But always with an underlying smile :)

Car inspections are so fun!

Max woke up at 5am, so after a long two hours of waiting, he had to hold Kira the instant she woke up.  She was barely awake yet and was probably wondering where Max's pants (SHORTS!!!!!) were.

Sunday sleep over

Max and Kira woke up at the exact same time, 6 o'clock, this morning.  Kira chilled and cooed in her bed ("crib!!" as Max would swiftly correct) for a bit, while mommy tried to coax Max into snuggling for a while before beginning the day.  By 8:30am Kira was ready for nap, and Max found, and put on his old sack to match her.  He begged to go in her crib, and against mommy's better judgement she allowed him in.  "I'm tired, go out, I want to sleep with her," he lied.  The boy did not even take a nap at his actual nap time.  Instead, he pooped in his diaper and smeared it on the wall.  In his parents bedroom.  The ultimate slap in the face. 

Max was so excited to be in Kira's crib.  It is crazy to think he actually slept in here.  Or that he slept at all.  

Kira should be the Bumbo spokesmodel 

Shopping with mommy.  You can take this girl anywhere!

Max is ALMOST dressed appropriately, but he was still the only kid on the playground in shorts.

One of two playground stops on this beautiful afternoon 

Kira's first time in the swing!  She is definitely too little, but since big brother was swinging, why not?  Of course her head is looking to the side the whole time because she is looking at Max.  And probably because she is too little for the swing.  

This swing is silly!

Max desperately wanted to take a bath with Kira.  And than her tub floated away...

Spring is in the Saturday air

We are so happy that it looks like spring might be here to stay!

Max went to the kids club (babysitting!) at mommy's gym today for the first time since he was 3 months old (and sound asleep the whole time).  He did great and even asked to use the potty.  We celebrated with a lunch date.  Max squeezed his milk box all over mommy.  A few times.  That is what she gets for not pouring the milk in his sippy cup.  And taking pictures of the incident.

Dribbling the basketball he painted 

Playground selfie for three

Max ran around the playground for two hours while Kira (while strapped to mommy) chased after him.  

Max is obsessed with this life size maze.  As he flew around he noticed another boy had the same black sneakers as him (which he was not wearing) and he went up to the boy and said, "those are mine!"

Max had a blast on the tire swing.  Mommy only had about 1.5 million heart attacks as he was flung wildly in the air with two older/larger kids.

Max made the clubhouse disappear and then he said the magic words to make it come back!  He is a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse super fan.

This is the first time Max put his hand out the car window, and obviously the first time in a long time the windows were even down.  He insisted that the "noise" was a motorcycle.  But it was the wind.

Bag of bacon and Cheerios for the car ride to swim class

Good morning!

TGIF

Max told daddy, "Stop watching TV and look at Kira"

But of course Max wanted to watch March Madness, too

Waiting to watch Kira roll over 

The smile on Kira's face when she wakes up is almost too good to be true.

New favorite activity

Rocking and rolling

After many mornings of brotherly instruction, Kira rolled over today!  She was very proud of herself!  

"I want to hold her!!!"

"Come on Kira!"

"My mom is INSANE and changed me into this outfit because Max wore it the day he first rolled over.  Also daddy said this outfit was girly when Max wore it.  But now not so much." -Kira 

Like brother, like sister

If kids got ice cream for being good at night, then Max would not have any.  But since Avery got ice cream after school, Max wanted some, too.  And mommy is a sucker.

Huge fan of dinner!
