BABIES!!!

This past Saturday Joseph and I traveled to Oregon, Wisconsin to visit with Troy, Michelle and her twins Ada and Emmet, and Andee and her son Diego. The babies are all around the same age, Diego is the oldest born in January and Michelle's kids were born three days before Joseph. I had such a great time getting to talk to my friends and hang out for a few hours without worrying what the girls were getting into. The babies were not sure what to make of one another at first but shortly after meeting one another they seemed to really enjoy each other. We did have a few times when all 4 babies would cry, one would start and the others would join in, I was laughing so hard! Poor Troy when they would all get going needless to say the conversation would stop and we would have to get everyone quiet again, he is so patient.
Diego is the only one walking right now and he is so proud of himself, he just beams every time he stands up to walk (he is too cute with all that hair!). Ada and Joseph are crawling and thus were able to move out of "Baby Land" without too much effort, though they seemed fairly content to just sit and play there. Emmet is army crawling and it is so funny to watch him, he puts so much effort into it and throws his head from side to side with every move. The kids did really well, I think this is the first time we have had all 4 together at once, and the last time they did meet they were very young and oblivious to what or who was around them other than mom and food.

The babies meeting for the first time, Diego is at the top with his back to the camera, then coming down the right side is Emmet, Ada and Joseph.
Andee was reading a book to Emmet, see how nicely he sits to listen to a story. Diego came over to see what his mom was up to and Joseph was happy to play with Tupperware.

While we were gone the girls had "Daddy Daughter Day"! Bryan and the girls went out to lunch (to watch the Badger game) and shopping (at Home Depo) and he bought them each a new outfit for spring. They are having a hard time waiting for warm weather to come and just had to try on their new outfits!
