Family Fun and Fitness Day

Which is just a fancy name for
FIELD DAY!Kinder was orange for the day -
we had fun traveling from station to station with her class.


Rope climb - I didn't know they still did this in schools!

Rock Wall - they even let Lincoln join the class for the day.

Leah's favorite was the Rope Wall -
she made it to the top in record time!

And we finished off the morning with a run around the track!

Of Ice Cream and Graham Crackers

Once we got home from our Utah trip, we decided it was time to start Eli on solids. It was either that or have him knock our plates off the table as he reached for our food. So, of course, being the good parents we are, we started with that nutritional essential... Blue Bell ice cream!




Just kidding... I think. So far he seems to like everything that we give him, except for bananas (the banana ice cream ruined it for him, I'm sure). His current favorite is graham crackers. So be sure to have some on hand in the unthinkable event that you run out of food before he's satisfied!


Now that he understands what this eating thing is all about, he gets very upset if we even think about sitting down at the table without him. And once he's in his chair he looks around expectantly for a tasty morsel to beg off of one of us.
