crazy
It has been crazy around here! The end of the school year, nice weather, Mother's Day...life is keeping us on our toes!
G & G Petersen and Great-Grandma Petersen came to Ames for Mother's Day weekend and we had such a nice time. The weather was gorgeous all weekend long and we enjoyed a wonderful brunch on Mother's Day at the Gateway Hotel. Josh and my dad went to a movie on Sunday afternoon, and my mom/grandma/I even got in a quick shopping trip to Target. Josh and Keatin/Will got me the sweetest cards and the best gift...ordering a double stroller!!! (Not here yet, but can't wait!) The grandmas and grandpa stayed an extra to watch the kids for us on Monday...I think they were all EXHAUSTED by the time they left...but we appreciated their help SO much! On Sunday afternoon, Keatin and I had a little "girl time" alone and headed to a small park by our house. We enjoyed the sunshine and played on the slide/swings together. She loved "helping" me go down the slide - ha!
Grandpa Barber having a little play time on the floor with Keatin and Will...
Tuesday...OMG - it was 97 degrees!!! After supper, Josh mowed the yard and Keatin was entertained by the sprinkler/played in the water for over an hour. Will and I came out later, but after about 5 minutes...we were both sweating!
So...remember these 3 cuties back in January...
...look at them now! Jack came over on Wednesday night for a few hours while his mom and dad went golfing...we had a great time all playing together! We even went for a quick walk before it started to rain and decided that all the people driving by probably thought we were CRAZY with 2 strollers and one baby in a baby carrier...ha!!!
Hope everyone has a nice weekend!

WILL, 5 months
Will - how can you be 5 MONTHS OLD today?????
At 5 months, you...
Wear size 2 diapers - I think we will be graduating to size 3 soon. :)
Wear 6, 6-9, or 9 month clothes...but let's be honest, mostly 9 month stuff. :)
Weigh around 16 pounds (mommy's guess). :)
Roll over from your tummy to back. I think you are close to figuring out how to go back to tummy...you get yourself up on your side sometimes.
Sit up with assistance. If I lean you against my chest when sitting on the floor, you try to sit yourself forward...your tummy is getting strong!
Like to pull your sister's hair.
Have discovered your feet...I have caught you grabbing them a few times, although I don't think you realize you can get them in your mouth.
"Eat" cereal 1-2 times a day...you aren't GREAT at it. I am thinking about just trying some fruit with you to see if you like that better.
Starting to understand a sippy cup - yeah!!! (See picture below.)
Like to play in your exersaucer and sit up in the high chair - you can see so much!
Sit like a "big boy" in the stroller - no more infant seat for walks. :)
Eat around 845-9 pm every night and go to bed...don't eat again until 6-630 am. Some nights you sleep pretty good, but lately you have been awake a few times in the middle of the night.
Say "MMMM" a lot...maybe "ma ma" is soon????? :)
Smile A LOT (especially for mommy, daddy, Keatin, and your other friends at Jessica's house). People comment about what a happy baby you are...and you really are for the most part!
Are very social.
Are SO, SO loved! I can't imagine my life without your smily, round face to look at every day!

in the last week...
...Keatin and Will have done a lot of reading and laying around! :) Check it out...
URGH...I have another cute video of Keatin reading to Will...but I think the file is too big. Oh well!
he rolls, I swear :)
Will has officially been rolling over for about a week now. Yeah for him!
However, whenever I get out the camera to get him in action, he just lays there...even if he had just rolled over 5 times! SO...here are 2 videos of Will when he is SUPPOSED to be rolling over. :)
