A day at the lake


We've been trying to go to the lake for awhile now, the first time we went it was closed for a triathlon, and then a random lightening storm appeared out of nowhere once we got there the next time.
But this weekend, we finally made it! 
We got there and had a nice little picnic and then played in the water.
EmmaLee played hard for about an hour and a half, and then fell fast asleep in my arms. She hasn't done that in a loooong time. I loved it!
AddiLyn splashed in the water a little bit too but slept most of the time in her car seat that was mounted on the stroller. So Ryan and I switched off going on swims. I needed the practice! Doggy paddle is the only thing I do when it comes to swimming, so I practiced the different strokes. It was quite the workout. 
Here are some pictures








We went home and ate German pancakes for dinner. I'd say it was a Saturday well spent :)

AddiLyn is 4 months

My tiny chunk is 4 months old! 
Where did the time go? It seems like it was just yesterday that I was looking at her as a tiny scrawny baby, wishing she would stay awake for more than 10 minutes. Now I can't ever get her to sleep! ;) 

Stats: 14 lbs and 26 inches (75% for both)

-Wears 0-3 month clothes still but their starting to get a little snug, so she's finally fitting into 3-6 month clothes!

- Wears size 2 diapers

- Smiles A LOT. She's such a happy baby. ( She even smiled at the nurse after she gave her the shots... After she screamed at her of course.)

- Doesn't take bottles very easy. 

-Takes a binky at night 

- Hand eye coordination is developing great. Reaches and grabs on to things.

- Fights nap time just like her sister. Stinkers.

- Has rolled over once. Hates tummy time.

- Loves being in her car seat. We can get her to sleep easiest by walking around with her in her car seat.

- Sucks on her hands and is a little drooly

- Still has blue eyes and still has her dark hair

- Loves watching EmmaLee play

- Sleeps through the night! 

- Nurses exclusively, about 8-10 times a day

We love our sweet little AddiLyn Mae!!!
