This month Dane hit the six month mark so I thought I'd take some new pics. He is getting to be so much fun and has the best laugh. He is a fabulous eater and he sits really well. Sleeping at night is not his thing but we are working on it. We just love him so much.




Ellie went through a hard boiled egg phase a couple months ago, and briefly relapsed the other night. This is how she likes to eat her eggs!


We had some rain a couple days ago and Ellie couldn't pass up the chance to mop the driveway. For some reason she likes to mop. She doesn't get that from me! She loves playing outside wether it is mopping or running around.


I gave Dane a strawberry and this was the end result. He loved it! The cleanup was fun too since he loves his baths.

We got some new jammies today and put on a little fashion show.  Dane hates fashion shows by the way.  I did get a smile though, which is hard to do behind a camera.  He's growing up so fast!  He can sit really well now and is a drool machine!  He had his six month checkup a few weeks ago and was 50% weight, 90% height, and 10% head.  Dane has also decided to give up his pacifier today and went to bed just fine without it.  Hooray!

Another long post!  It is kind of tradition to go to dinner for a six month birthday, so we went to Red Lobster for Dane's.  After crying and slobber and a small tantrum from Ellie, we remembered why we don't take them too many places together.  These pics are a little backwards, but this is Ellie with her Easter haul.  The play makeup was a huge hit and has kept her busy for days.  Also some new sunglasses that don't strap around her whole head.  Here is Ellie and Dane with all their Easter glory.  There was candy and toys everywhere but it was fun.  Do you like Ellie's cool shoes she got?  The Easter bunny has funky taste!  Notice another awkward pic of the two of them in their Easter clothes.  Someday we'll get a good one.Rockin out in dance class.  The dance school put an ad in the paper for this class so there are a jillion kids there.  Notice the lone boy by the window with his mom begging him to participate.  Poor kid.  Chris made me promise not to put Dane in dance.  Also notice how during "London Bridges" Ellie decided to keep the boy company because she hates that game.  

More progress with the motorcycle fear.  The girl actually got on one!  The pic before is of her standing outside her class after dance.  I changed my blog settings to make the pics bigger and I'm still figuring it out so my explanations are a little messed up.  Enjoy!
