Trains with Grandpa and Grandma


Trains are Kaelan's FAVORITE thing to do right now. He plays trains at home all day, watches Thomas and also youtube videos of real steam trains and pretty much makes a train out of anything he has in his hand.
So you can see how cool it was to take a train ride (and not just any train but that big black steam engine above!) with Grandpa and Grandma.

Grandpa and Grandma made it!


Kaelan was so exicted for G & G to arrive and had a lot of fun with them while they were here. They stayed with us for a week and then went on a 12 day Danube river cruise and then will come back here for a week. It is so nice having them here. We love you Grandpa and Grandma!





We gave them projects when they arrived! Grandma graciously hemmed our curtains from Singapore to fit our windows here and Grandpa was forced to hang all our pictures, lights and he even got lucky enough to put some IKEA pieces together. Our house looks so much better now that they have been here!

Coco is 5 months!








Can you believe it? I certainly can't. My sweet, little baby girl is growing up way to quickly! She is a wonderful baby. She hardly ever cries and is always ready to give anyone a huge smile. She loves to be part of the party when we read books, play trains, take a bath, and even cook. She is showing all signs of teething but there has yet to be any teeth popping through. Her least favorite part of the day is bed time. She naps great but seems to know that night is different and she likes to fight it every night! We are working on letting her cry it out but we have been doing it for a week now and she still cries at night for 10-30mins. I guess since she rarely cries any other time she has to get it out at night. Boy it hurts mommy and daddy too! I love this precious girl more than I ever knew I could.
