It's Fair Time!

Look who is practicing to sit up!

...and rolling around like crazy!
 (Yes, she started on the blanket under the toy, and managed to get all the way to the couch;Then she got frustrated because she couldn't go any further!)

Haddie had her 4 month check up on Monday and her growth continues to be steady...Her height and weight are between the 75th-90th percentile at 15lbs. 9oz.  I can't remember her head circumference, but it's a little smaller than average in the 25th percentile. Otherwise Dr. Stevenson said she looks great and we can even start introducing some solids if we want and if she seems interested! We didn't start with Danika until 6 months and she really doesn't need anything besides breast milk until then, but we may just try a few in August.

Danika had a fun filled weekend with family. I wanted to go for a long run in the country so we went to hang out at the farm with Papa, Grandma, Lori and Dad who was there helping out. There always seems to be a 'big ticket' item that we want to get Danika that just can't wait until her birthday or Christmas...this summer it's been a bike. We finally got her one. She came with and picked it out...Although we tried to convince her to get the red one, she had her mind set on the pink one- there was NO talking her out of it:) So Daren put it together for her at the farm and she practiced riding around.
(Disclaimer: No, I will NOT be letting her ride on a regular basis barefoot AND without a helmet...both things will be enforced:)
There is also a video after the picture of her trying the bike out for the first time!




Haddie loved the fresh air and was such a happy, good girl...Grandma Dummer even got some cuddle time in:) 


Saturday night we ventured to the Dunn County Fair and low and behold as we pulled in to park, so did David, Stacy and Chloe. Danika was quite excited to see Chloe and enjoyed exploring the fair with her!  


Another pony ride! VERY hard to get her off. She kept saying "again? again? PLEASE AGAIN!?!?" 

And some fun rides! Chloe was a trooper to go on the little rides with her:)

Again, here's a little video of them on a ride...



Cruizin' so fast, I couldn't get a picture that wasn't blurry!


In the last two days we've managed to have cheese curds, funnel cake, puff corn, ice cream, chips and chocolate milk as meals...ugg! Let's hope to get back on track this week!

Until next week...
