Exploring and 5 Months

A few weekends ago we took Eli to a kid's museum here in town called the Exploration Place. It was a dreary Saturday and we needed to get him out of the house so this ended up being the perfect activity. I had never taken him before because I thought it would be too old for him, but there was a little activity and play area for his age group and he had a great time. I think he just loves exploring new surroundings.

Hailey was enjoying herself as well.

We were trying to bribe Eli with animal crackers for a sibling photo and this was the best one we got. :)

Hailey's eyes are still blue! Eli's started turning brown at this age.

This is a great picture showing the river downtown and the big Indian statue.

Marc was teaching Eli how to drive this tractor. I haven't ridden in a tractor since I was a little kid but this one was pretty comfortable!

And then, since Eli did so well with his first driving experience, Marc decided to let him fly a plane too. :)

It was a fun day and everyone had a great time including Hailey. She is such an easy baby for us. I really can't think of the last time she was difficult for us during an outing.  We try to just time things for when she is fed and rested and then we are good to go.

It is hard to believe that we have had Hailey with us for five months now. It has really just flown by. I think balancing two kids has something to do with that. :) Hailey has been sleeping so great this past week. I hope it sticks around for good this time. We started her on rice cereal this week which has been lots of fun. Eli enjoys watching her eat with a spoon. She is finally starting to fill out a little bit!

Happy 5 months Hailey June!
