Libertyland

So we are not the only ones who heard about the "pass of all passes," lol.

We went to Libertyland on Labor Day and it was incredibly crowded!!!

We were able to ride on the roller coaster, airplanes, carousel, pirate ship, and the frogger thing, but we didn't stay long. The lines were huge and it was too crowded.

We were glad that we hadn't gone there without a pass though!

I think we'll really enjoy using our passes, but we'll have to make sure to go on "off" days from now on!

I heard a clip of these songs a few years ago and I've been wanting a link to them ever since.

Enjoy!

5 months old

I can't believe that my baby is already 5 months old!
He is developing quite the little personality,
and it's so fun to see!

He absolutely adores Ethan and Julia,
and is so excited (sometimes squealing with delight)
when they get home from school.

His toes are one of his new favorite toys.
He loves rolling over from his back to his front
but sometimes gets frustrated
when he can't get his arm out from underneath him.

He definitely knows what he wants.
The other day I had a bag of potatoes on the floor
that still needed to be put away.
He was nearby in the bumbo seat
and was very frustrated that
he couldn't quite get the potatoes.

He is getting very good at holding onto his toys,
is an expert hair puller,
and is sticking everything in his mouth.

He just starting sleeping in his crib this past week.
The first few nights he did great
but then he got a little cold
and we didn't get much sleep for a few days.
Last night he seemed to be feeling better
and he slept much better, thankfully.

He smiles and laughs all the time,
and loves watching what his Dad is doing.

He will only tolerate the bumbo (or bouncer or jumeroo) for a short time,
and then he definitely lets us know when he's ready to get out.

He loves being held all the time!

He is so much fun!
