Summer Lovin'

Haven't had much to report lately, but wanted to share a few pictures of Miss Jade!

Excited about her new picnic table that we snagged for free from a neighbor

Enjoying a freeze pop on a hot afternoon

Going down the big slide all by herself

Happy (almost) Friday! :)

Weekend Fun

We had a very busy but very fun Saturday! We started the day with Jade's class in the morning. We left directly from there to drop Jade off at my parents house so we could meet up with our friends Meagan and Blake in Lake Geneva for a day of boating! While we were enjoying the sun, water and time with friends, Jade was busy having a blast at the Thrivent picnic, playing bags, making friends and eating pizza with Grammy and Grampy! Here are a few pictures from our day!

There was no class the last two weeks due to Naperville's Rib Fest, and the week prior we missed class due to our extended family weekend celebration. I can't believe how much more Jade could do and understand since her last class! She is seeming so 'old' lately!

Jade's first time crawling through the tunnel

Also her first time jumping on the trampoline

Pizza for dinner

Doing a little reading before bed! Nate and I didn't think we would be sleeping at my mom and dad's so we didn't pack Jade any jammies. Good thing Grammy found these Carebear jammies that used to be mine!

15 Months

Jade had her 15 month check up today Apparently the doctor was taking too long for her, so she decided to rearrange the furniture and do headstands!


.

Jade weighed 26 lbs 6 oz (90th percentile) and measured 33 inches tall (above 97th percentile). She also had 3 shots today and did great, so we stopped at Culvers for ice cream (and cheese curds) on the way home!


Jade has learned so many new things this month including drinking out of a straw, eating with a fork and spoon, climbing up on the couch by herself, playing peek-a-boo by covering her face with her hands and riding her ride on toys correctly.


She's also big on tantrums these days when things don't go her way. Luckily she is easily distracted and the tantrums only last a few seconds.


She loves playing outside and is fearless in her pool. 



Happy 15 months Jade Marie, we couldn't love you more!
