Pictures from April

I need to stop starting my blog posts with an apology, but here it goes again… even though it's the middle of May, here are pictures from April, finally. Sorry for the wait! We didn't do too much this month, and most pictures are on my phone.

Isaac started going to t-ball. It's not like regular t-ball, with teams and playing against each other, it's mostly a bunch of 4yr olds (probably around 30-40), getting put into three groups and doing a round-robin type of deal, each part working on different things, like catching, throwing, batting, etc. The first day Isaac was all into it, but the other times he wouldn't do a thing unless I was right there beside me (not daddy, only mommy). It's fun though.

Rose is such a little 2yr old, complete with attitude, meltdowns, and being a drama queen. She is also really loving (she loves to just be held and cuddled while watching tv), she likes to sing songs from movies or shows, and she's talking in complete, comprehensive sentences now. It's crazy how fast she's growing.

As for Penny, she's also growing like a weed and has started smiling, cooing, and laughing all the time. She is such an easy baby most of the time (she does have her moments/days where she just wants to be held all day, which is expected). She's my first to already sleep through the night, even at this age (at this time she is 3.5m old, but in the month of April she was 2, going on 3 months, and was only waking once a night). Right now she goes to sleep around 9pm and sleeps until 8am. I know it won't last, so I'm enjoying the extra sleep I can get at the time.

Well, here are the pictures from the month of April, the first batch are from the camera, and some are from my cell phone.

From the camera:
