5 months and apples

Josiah is now five months old! As always, time is flying by. He is still a champion eater, has mastered rolling from stomach to back, and loves loves loves to put everything in his mouth. His favorites are paper, soft things, and anything that crinkles. He can't decide if he is going to be a thumb sucker or not- the jury is still out. He is absolutely massive compared to how big any of the girls were at his age. The girls are still so good to him and he gets so excited when he sees them.





So in my exhaustion I agreed to painting the driveway with washable paint. Turns out painting yourself was infinitely funner. The red around the mouths makes them look like something out of a scary movie and they were running around the front yard screaming "I'm a monster". We like to give the neighbors something to talk about. 






Last year we had to miss out on apple picking because of Jason's surgery so this year we made up for it and picked almost 19 pounds of apples. It was a tad warm outside but we tried really hard to pretend it was fall. Everyone had a good time and Josiah was a champ through the whole experience. 















Ballerina Party

This years birthday theme was..... ballerinas! On their actual birthday we were in Michigan with our dear friends the Machados and Hannah made the girls a delicious birthday cake. We had their St. Louis party the next weekend with our small group girls. I think it was a success and everyone had lots of fun.
