After Alexa's gymnastics camp, we went to the Alum Creek beach with our friends Kara and Emme. The kids had so much fun filling the bucket with rocks and sand.

07/25/2011 Weekend Fun
Tysen loves Gabbi and Gabbi's pretty fond of him, too.
Tysen suddenly started taking lots of interest in standing this weekend. I swear, this little boy did not stay a baby for near long enough!
There's a pink ghost with 4 cute feet in my living room!
Today there was an event celebrating the 125th anniversary of my hospital. They had lots of fun things for the kids. Alexa and Gavin loved the balloons. Alexa asked for a flower and Gavin picked the monkey.
Another kid favorite was the bounce house. They played so hard and got very sweaty!
There was lots of good food, too. We enjoyed the ice cream. And the best part about the whole day? It was all free!
Here's Gavin's "Monkey on a tree." Unfortunately, it didn't make it out to the car. It was too tempting for him to whack things with it! Pop!

Tysen will be 7 months old tomorrow! He is amazing us everyday with all his new skills. Every time we turn around, he's doing something new! He's been able to sit unassisted for awhile now, but we would have to get him in the right position. He's just now figured out how to go from a crawling position to sitting on his bottom.
I have been making all of Tysen's baby foods. We recently discovered that he loves edamame, just like Alexa and Gavin! I've been slow-cooking vegetables in my crock pot and then blending them up. Then I scoop the vegetables into an ice cube tray and freeze them. Once frozen, I pop out all the cubes into a freezer bag. The cubes are a great serving size for Tysen. He typically eats 3-4 cubes for a meal plus a 6 ounce bottle. I usually make and freeze a month's worth of baby food on a weekend and then it makes it really easy to pack his food for daycare during the week. I make lots of fruit cubes, too, but they are a lot easier because I don't have to cook them first. Here are some of Tysen's favorite foods: edamame, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, yellow squash, fresh green beans, peas, carrots, avocado, strawberries, banana, peach, pear, blue berries, and apples. Actually, come to think of it...I can't think of any food that he doesn't like! Today after church, we went out to eat for breakfast. Daddy fed Tysen his first bites of pancake! He liked it, but he's still trying to figure out how to chew chunks of food. He likes to move it around in his mouth and get it all soggy, and then push it out his mouth instead of swallowing it!
Yesterday we met up with our friends at Easton to play in the water fountains.
Emme's having a blast in the water!
Alexa likes to sit on the water.
I don't even know what to say about this picture! It just makes me laugh! She put her goggles on herself and they are just a little crooked.
Alexa, Gavin, and Emme
Once they were done playing in the water, we changed their clothes and then went to see the trains. Gavin loves trains.
