1 Month Checkup

Well Samantha is one happy and very healthy little girl!  She is right on track with her brother with her statistics!  She is a great eater and getting her sleeping down!  She is starting to "talk" a lot more and she has already rolled over from her tummy to her back. 

Here are her stats from her one month check up:
Weight: 11 lbs and 9 ounces (95th percentile)
Height: 21 3/4 inches (90th percentile)
Head: 15 inches (90th percentile)

We are loving our time with both kids and the summer has been such a great time so far!  I will post some pictures once I get them uploaded!

Samantha's Baptism & Family Time

This past weekend Samantha was baptized and we were lucky enough to have most of our family here to celebrate this special time.  Benjamin was able to spend time with his cousins and both kiddos were able to spend time with grand parents and even great grandma Winkelman.  We loved spending time with everyone and so sad that it was such a quick weekend, but it was a great one and many memories were created!

Jiggle Jam and Summer Fun

Over Memorial Day weekened we went down to Crown Center for the Jiggle Jam concert and arts & crafts.  Benjamin had a blast playing in the fountains and doing the various arts & crafts activities.  It was a blast to get out side and enjoy watching him.  He continues to figure new things out and become more independent!  Then the past few weeks have consisted to some time at the zoo, park and anything outside.  Samantha has been along for the ride and she has been such a trooper! 

Hope everyone is having a great start to their summer!
Loving the fountains!
