It has been sooooo hot and humid this week. We have had some bad storms as well. One night Joey, Ingrid, and I were up most of the night because the lightning was so intense and the thunder was so loud it literally shook the house. Miraculously Hayden didn't wake up.
We have been getting packed up and ready to head up to Cedar Falls this weekend. Ingrid, Hayden, and I leave tomorrow to help mom get ready for the reunion this weekend. I am really excited to see the Willems clan. I haven't seen a lot of my cousins since Hayden has been born so it will be nice to see them!
Tomorrow, we are going to the Amish to get some baked goods for the party. Then, Saturday we will be baking and getting everything set up for Sunday.
Hayden has been getting more daring at letting go of things and standing for a few seconds. He is also cruising the furniture and loves crawling over us to get what he wants. We installed a few gates to help keep Hayden out of trouble. He is eating about 3-4 bottles now and is getting a lot better with the sippy cup. He is liking real milk, more and more.
Hayden and Ingrid enjoy sitting out on the front steps to get fresh air. The neighbor kids love to come and chat when they see Hayden and Ingrid.
Have a great weekend.
