3 months

Happy 3 month birthday to our little Emmett James!  New this month is that Emmett is really starting to smile back at people and react with giggling and laughing when you tickle him.  Caleb & him continue to be best friends and get along great!

Camping

I took Caleb on his first camping trip last night!  We went to the secluded, beautiful location of OUR BACKYARD!!!  I wanted to take him to our farm, but Trish said we better try it out in the backyard first in case it didn't go well!

Camp.

Enjoying the campfire.

This is what I woke up to this morning.  Actually I woke up about a hundred times throughout the night to him ramming his legs into my ribs!

To say he enjoyed it would be an understatement!  Normal bedtime in our house is 8:00pm and I was still up at 10:30 listening to his stories and questions!  Finally when I thought he was getting tired and falling asleep I would hear "Pssst, Daaad?!?!"  And it would start all over again!  He had a great time camping and threw a fit this morning when we had to come back in the house because Mommy was leaving for work and somebody had to watch baby Emmett! 

The next goal will be tearing the tent down today without another giant meltdown. 

Zoo Trip

It's been just over a week since we went, but last Tuesday we took the boys to the Blank Park Zoo in Des Moines.  Caleb had a great time, Emmett just sat there in his stroller or strapped in Mommy's carrier! 

We were surprised Caleb actually wanted to go into the bird cage and feed the birds!

The carousel was a HUGE hit.  He wanted to ride the zebra SOOOO bad, but some other kid took it the first time around, so we had to ride it again!
