Molly is 10 months

Molly now loves to wave! Our pretty little 10 month old baby girl! She is on the move now...crawling and pulling herself up on everything. She can let go and stand for about 2 seconds. But she gets so excited and proud of herself that she starts laughing so hard she falls. It is very entertaining.



Check out this expression...she was really getting into her jumps!!

Kittelson & Nelson Playdate

Gio & Bella Kittelson came over for dinner and some good ol' fashion floor time. The kids played together so well. Zach is not pictured but he was super active in running around with Bella. He also liked being the "entertainer" of all!

Our big girl is on the move

From crawling to pulling herself to standing...Molly is growing up and is on the move.
Pictures by Daddy while Mommy was out.

Mom's Day off

Mommy took a day off and left Daddy in charge...he did great. She went to Chicago for a quick (30 hour) trip to celebrate her friend, Kate's birthday. It was a surprise weekend for Kate. The big surprise was on Friday night...so when Marci & I walked into the store she was in on Saturday morning...she was so surprised...see the video below. I love surprises and love my girl friends...30 hours of much needed girl time!!Millenium Park

Marci, Koren & Kate


Here is the video of us surprising Kate. We had to literally run/walk into the store so she didn't see us first. It was perfect.

"Under Dog"

Grandpa & Daddy hung up our "baby" swing last weekend. Since then it has provided hours of entertainment for ALL the kids. Molly has probably been it the least. Zach and his neighbor buds have learned that "under dog" is the most fun ever...we have been swinging every day!!
The other fun activity for the kids is getting to push Molly:)

We are...Penn State

Though we love those Golden Gophers, they are not the only Big 10 (or 11 if you ask Mommy) school we love. Aunt Megan & Uncle Josh are Nittany Lions. They sent these adorable PSU shirts. Zach opened it yelling "my new football shirt" and demanded he wear it all night. Thanks Megan & Josh!!!
It is gettting a whole lot harder to capture these two sitting next to each other now that Molly is on the move. Zach wanted to have Molly in his lap...you can see how long that lasted.

Molly's first time in the Bike Trailer

Don't get too proud of me for taking them on a bike ride...we rode to the gas station a block away to get air in the tires and back home. I would LOVE to get them to enjoy riding so I could take them for longer rides. I loved looking back and seeing 2 little faces.

Mommy & Molly giggling


I love this picture! But not as much as I love to hear her giggle!! Mommy loves her Molly!

Grandpa & Grandma Hawk come to visit

We had a great weekend with Grandpa & Grandma Hawk in town. They got a chance to experience our "typical" weekend. Park, home to play, park...eat, sleep, play...repeat.
It was a busy weekend for Molly...she pulled herself up to standing today (on the bar stool).
We took them to Isles Buns & Coffee for some Puppy Dog Tails...and read the paper:) I didn't get a good picture but Molly crawled for the first time today!
Crawled trying to grab her diaper then to the grass...all to put in her mouth.
