Tonight we went to Grandma and Grandpa Durrant's house. While we were there Kelsie learned to ride her bike without training wheels! She is very excited and wants to practice all the time. She keeps telling us "this is really fun!" She's also excited for all the neighbor boys her age to see that she can ride a two wheeler too!

Day Off
John had the day off on Friday while his company moved to their new building. We enjoyed having an "extra" day and took the kids to check out the Children's Discovery Museum.
Our favorite part was the store. We had fun making sandwiches in the deli, grocery shopping, and playing cashier!
Emily was TERRIFIED of the life flight helicopter simulator. She wanted to check it out, but every time it starting revving up she would start panicking. She thought the helicopter was going to take off with her in it!
Carter was really good and tried to find new ways to entertain himself while confined to a stroller. I was really amused when I looked in and found he had completely scooted himself to the end of his seat and was desperately trying to get his feet to touch the top of the stroller. Maybe we should take that as a signal that he wants out!

Time to Eat
We were trying to delay starting Carter on solids until 6 months, but after three days of constant crying and grunting we decided he MUST be hungry. The way he was eyeing every bite we took and grabbing at our food was a pretty good indicator! The pictures are of his first try at solids. He was delighted by the rice cereal. He was opening his mouth wide between bites, kicking his legs with excitement, and grabbing the spoon to try to get it into his mouth. We just couldn't get it in there fast enough! Now he feels like the world of food has been opened up to him and tries to swipe at everything the girls are eating in hopes of getting a little taste.
