6 months

Wow, it has been a busy month! As you can see from the previous posts we had Uncle Nate and Aunt Elizabeth come to visit this month. And we also had our first trip to the apple orchard. Kaelyn has been very busy this month. She has started rolling from her front to her back and then over again. There have been a few times when I have left her on the floor and come back into the room to find her on the opposite side of the room!!!! She has been sitting up by herself and getting a lot better at it! She has gotten a taste of baby apple sauce, pears, bananas, and peaches. None of which she seems to care too much for!!! But if we mix it in with the cereal she eats like a trooper!!! She has started saying some consonants such as "da da" and "blah blah" which Joe absolutely loves!! She sounds so different then just a month ago. Another thing she does is scoot. She gets her knees up underneath her and scoots her face across the floor and moves forward just a little bit. I keep thinking she is going to get some serious rug burn on her face!!! She also loves being thrown in the air, but not too high!! Joe swings her back and forth and even turns her upside down and she loves it!!! She always gets a big smile on her face. We have been loving watching her grow and figuring out the world around her. She keeps us busy but we are lucky to have her!!!!

Minnesota Fall

I love the fall time in Minnesota!!! It is the best and most beautiful time of year. This year we decided to take Kaelyn to the Minnetonka apple orchard. Grandma Faye and our neice Sera and nephew Noah came with us. It was a beautiful day, although it was a little chilly but we had a lot of fun!!!! Kaelyn experienced her first taste of an apple and loved it!!! She goobered and slobbered all over it!!! We went for a hayride and even did some off roading through a corn maze! She seemed to really enjoy herself!!! Everyday she finds something new and it's amazing to see it all connect in her head! Here are some pictures from our adventure....

I love my Uncle and Auntie!!!

This past weekend my brother Nate and his fiance Elizabeth were up to visit from Texas. Nate was here the weekend Kaelyn was born, but this was Elizabeth's first time meeting her. We had such a fun visit with them!!!! They gave us the night off on Friday so we went out to dinner, saw a movie and went to a bon fire. It was great to get out just the two of us!!!! Nate changed his first diaper and you can tell he loves being an uncle!!!! Of course Kaelyn seemed to love them both and had fun being smothered with love!!! Here are a few pics from the weekend!
