Rose is 4 months old! Plus parades, jumpers, and rolling over!

Yesterday, our little Rose turned 4 months old!


I have more pictures at the bottom of this post from this photo session, but first, pictures from last weekend leading up to yesterday :)

Last Saturday, we went to Washington DC and watched the Cherry Blossom Festival Parade with the Lings. The boys (Isaac and Noah) did really well and watched most of the parade :)

 The boys sitting next to each other

 Waving at the ladies...

 Waving at the motorcycles...

 Waving at the horsies....

 Liv with Noah and Liam

 Ooo a firetruck!

 Liv getting attacked by Isaac and Noah

 Wearing Medieval Times crowns that they gave out at the parade

 A cool robot walking in the parade

 Rose watching the parade too

Isaac and Matt on the Merry-Go-Round

During the week, we decided to bring out the jumper for Rose to use. Both she and Isaac get enjoyment from it haha

 Checking things out

 Trying to figure out how to get the lion to move like Isaac did

 Nomming on the teether

 Staring at the toys

 Playing with toys on the floor

 Helping daddy wash the cars. His job was to clean the tires.

Tired after helping daddy, so he relaxed in his chair and watched cartoons

 My girl

Silly cheese face

 Isaac was pretending to eat the banana

 She's so smiley now!

Is it just me.. or do they have the same exact expression??

 This is what happens the moment I set her in the bouncer seat

 Munching on fingers

 Smiles!

 Patting her head...

More hugs for Rose

Both watching cartoons in the morning

As I said at the beginning, Rose turned 4 months old yesterday. She also had her well-child check up and these are her stats:
Weight: 14lbs 5.8oz
Height: 25.25inches

She's doing very well :) She's working on rolling and for the first time today, she rolled from her belly to her back! She tried going from back to belly a few times but just cant quite get there (her arm gets in the way) Hopefully soon though!

Below are the rest of the pictures taken from the 4month photo session.


 She was staring very intently at her feet

 Look at those rollie-pollie legs! 



 Ike wanted in on the picture taking

 Hugs for Rose

 Now taking off the sticker...

 ...and placing it on his face. 

 At least he put it back after haha

Both on daddy's chair

As I said before, Rose is really close to rolling from back to belly... here is one video we have of her trying really hard!


And here is a video of her going from belly to her back!

That's all for now!

Easter Weekend

Easter weekend for us was pretty easy-going. We woke up and had Isaac open his (and Rose's) Easter baskets, then we went out and got new bushes for the front lawn. And.. that was it :) Below are pictures from that morning.

 Compilation of gifts from the Easter bunny, us, and grandparents. 

 Isaac checking out the goodies

 Kitty cat! (He loves Shrek 2 because of the cat so we figured he'd love this movie)

 Holding candy

 Opening one of his gifts from Grandma Deb

 Seeds and a planter to put them in

 Next gift from Grandma Deb

 New PJ's!

 Next gift from Grandma Jeannette and Papa Bob

 Ooo a new book!

 Checking out the "basket" from Grandma Jeannette and Papa Bob.. 
it's actually a sandcastle bucket filled with toys and candy

 Ooo Frisbee!

 Checking out the rest of his basket

 Rose watching Isaac open gifts

Isaac opening Rose's gifts now

 Working outside with daddy. 
You can also kind of see the new bushes. 
They have red leaves and little, white flowers

Happy First Easter, Rose!

The rest of these pictures were taken throughout the week:
 
 Wearing her Little Sister bib

Tummy time with both kids!

 She didn't want to be in her bouncer seat and got so upset 
that she flipped to her belly in it! Then she got even more 
upset because she was now stuck

 big, blue eyes

 He thought Matt's laptop case was a hat..

 Silly boy

 Munching on fingers

Her pupils are HUGE here!

 Got him some new rain boots (that are still too big)
 that he loves to wear around the house

 Checking up on his sister

 Awe

 Thought this picture came out neat

 Silly boy

 Getting good at holding her head up during tummy time

 Drooooool!

 She loves being held up to stand

Munching on a new rattle she got while in Susanville from Paez's :)

And here is a video of her trying to roll over.. she's getting really close too!

Well, that's about it for now! I will do a post later of all the gardening stuff we have been/will be doing this weekend. We're also going to DC tomorrow to watch the Cherry Blossom Festival Parade with the Lings. I'll try and remember to bring the camera AND take pictures!
