Pool Day

Yesterday, we went to the pool with our friends Lisa and David, and their son Everett.  The boys had a lot of fun playing in both the baby pool and the "big" pool, and we're pretty sure Andrew just thought that he was in some really big bath tubs!  He also seemed to think the water was for eating, because he kept trying to pick up a handful and put it in his mouth...

Mother's Day

For Mother's Day this year, we went out to dinner to celebrate.  For some reason, Andrew didn't seem to get "the memo" that it was Mother's Day because he spent the day saying only "Dadada".  Maybe he'll only say "Mamama" on Father's Day...  

Indianapolis Mini Marathon

The first weekend in May we made the trip up to Indianapolis for Josh to run in the mini marathon.  We went down to the race Saturday morning to see Daddy and Nana (who ran the 5K) cross the finish line.  We spent the rest of the weekend at Nartker and Jaclyn's beautiful new home in Carmel, and they were nice enough to host a post race barbecue for everyone.  Andrew got to meet Addison Pritchard, Brooklyn Winkler, and Everett Floyd.  He really enjoyed playing with his new buddies!  

Franklin Main Street Festival

On Sunday, we went to the Franklin Main Street Festival with Lindsay and Stefan.  It was a really hot day, and we got some frozen lemonade to help with the heat.  Andrew insisted on trying some and made a huge pucker face with each sip.  He kept wanting more though, so it must not have tasted too bad!  

Family Fellowship Festival

On Friday night we went to a family festival at my brother's church.  They had a great crawl zone with lots of mats and tunnels for the kids to play in.  Andrew had a blast climbing around and he thought he was being pretty sneaky going up the slide (instead of down it).

Andrew Standing in his Crib

Andrew pulled up in his crib for the first time this morning.  He was SO proud of himself!  I grabbed the camera as fast as I could and was able to get a couple shots of him.

March of Dimes Walk

As you all know, Andrew was was a preemie when he was born, so the March of Dimes is an organization that is close to our hearts.  We decided to do the March for Babies this year, and my mom, dad, and Stefan were able to join us as well.  It was a really rainy day, with predictions of hail and thunderstorms, but thankfully it only rained for the beginning of the walk.  We all wore Vanderbilt Children's Hospital shirts to honor the place that has become so special to our family.
