Out on theTown!

We have been getting out of the house to go to doctors appointments, shopping trips, to see friends, and to church. It has been so nice to get out of the apartment...Joshua needed it and so did I! Here are some pics from the last few weeks...


Gabriel at 3 weeks...






Gabriel at 3 1/2 weeks...check out the shoes...I have decided that even boys need cute accessories!



My parents came in town to hang out with us while Peter was busy with our church's Tour weekend (like D-Now). Joshua and Gabriel got showered with early Valentine gifts from them and Auntie Alicia. Joshua loves his new doodle...

and his new monkey lunchkit from his Auntie Alicia!


We went to the park on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Joshua was actually able to hang on the rings...when his hands would start to slip, Grandpa caught him. He thought it was a pretty fun game.


Joshua and Laney have enjoyed some time together now that I'm on maternity leave and have some extra time during the day. This was Joshua's first experience in a sand box...

We went to the library for story time. Joshua and Laney were holding hands, walking up to the librarian to receive their Valentine gifts...so sweet!
They were a little overwhelmed by all of the other kids!


Thanks to Lori's blog, The Bargain Shopper Lady, we found out that IHOP was offering free shortstacks on Tuesday night for a donation to Shriner's Hospitals. I took that excuse to not have to cook, and we headed to IHOP. Gabriel enjoyed his first bottle while we ate...Peter was excited because this means we have some dates coming in the near future!

He is already a pro...holding the bottle all by himself!
Gabe chillin' in his bouncy seat and Pete...
