Molly is 6 months old!

It's hard to believe that Molly is half-way through her first year!  She is a happy little thing who loves to play with her brothers and bounce and roll and scoot and wiggle.  She's eating several types of food and her first tooth is just about to pop through.  She also just took her first airplane ride to Oklahoma to visit Aunt Lauren and Uncle Jerod.  She did really well on both flights.  She loved jumping in her bouncer at Lauren's house.
 It was insanely hot in Norman, but we managed to spend a little time on the hammock.
 Molly took a bath in the sink...
and spent some time swinging at the most adorable park.
 Before I left for Oklahoma, we met friends at the local splash park.  Owen was having so much fun running around that we did not get a single picture of him, but we got many of our littlest cuties.  Molly had a blast watching the big kids play.
 Our other big adventure this month was getting a swingset in our backyard.  Molly loves her baby swing...
 Wyatt loves the big boy swing...
 and Owen loves the glider.

Here's a little video of Molly's latest milestones....

Early June fun!

I found too many cute pictures this morning and just had to make a new post!  The boys were having fun playing outside while we worked on the yard.
 Molly is having fun in her high chair.  We just got it out for her last weekend and she really enjoys joining the family for meals.
 Wyatt offically moved into a big boy bed last weekend.  He's on the bottom bunk and Owen is up top.  They LOVE their new bunkbeds, which are actually the beds that Lauren and I slept in as children.  Wyatt is dressed up as Robin here.  He is a dress-up fanatic lately.
 We went on a beautiful and fun hike to Rock Ledge Ranch last week.  It's a living history museum, attached to Garden of the Gods (which you can see a little bit in the background).  All three kids had a blast watching animals, seeing a real blacksmith at work, and climbing on old farm equipment (Molly didn't actually participate in this part!)
 I thought this picture was so sweet.  All three kids playing together...it doesn't get better than that!

More May cuteness...

Before May is too far behind us, I wanted to include the last few notable moments from the month.  Molly started rice cereal over Memorial Day weekend.  She's doing a great job of eating several bites every day at lunch time.  I can't believe that she'll soon be eating 3 meals a day of solids...where did the time go??
Molly is also a crazy little roller.  She'll roll all over a room, so it's starting to become necessary to keep small toys/parts off the floor.  She's working on sitting up, too.  She can sit up for several seconds, sometimes even a minute, but if she sees a toy she wants, she'll just fall over and try to roll towards it.  She is always on the go!
Jazz hands in the swimming pool!  We recently had our first swim of the season at a friend's birthday party.  For the first time ever, Owen really enjoyed himself in the water, both in the kiddie pool and the spray park.  He's finally interested in learning to swim, so he'll start lessons in mid-June. 
 We also had time for a fun trip to the zoo with our friends, Maxwell and Finn.  Maxwell is almost 6 years old and Finn is 2 years old, so they match up with Owen and Wyatt perfectly!
 Molly had fun watching the boys tear around....
