Summer is here! Well its been here for almost a month now but now it really feels like summer to me. I can't wait to go camping Aug. long weekend! Aaron set up the tent last weekend just to air it out, since its been 2 years since we last used it. Lilah was thrilled and kept saying "I love it!" I've started making my lists of things we still need to buy, stuff we need to bring, and meal planning. Can never be too prepared;) We still don't know exactly where we are going but that can be decided pretty much last minute. I can't wait to see Katie, Ian and little Aaron again! (they're camping too)

Lilah has been hilarious lately. She doesn't ever stop talking and has a very distinctive way she talks. You have to listen very carefully if you don't hear it all the time. I have to laugh at her when she is really trying to get something out she stutters a lot and says the same thing like 10 times before she can continue. She is also very mischievous but plays well on her own. She is using her imagination more and more and its pretty incredible what she comes up with. She loves her movies and I love that she now has her own TV in the playroom so that we aren't fighting over who gets to watch what:) She sleeps so well in her new room too.

Declan is still such a joy! He loves his crib and usually naps so well. He still has 3 naps a day and is down for the night by 8:30pm. He's been waking up at around 5am for some milk than its right back to bed til about 8am. He isn't sleeping so well anymore in his car seat or stroller:( He falls asleep fine but will wake up after 20 minutes and be wide eyed. He doesn't really like being rocked to sleep either he just wants to be put in his bed with his soother and bear and he does the rest. Which is really nice but sometimes I would like a cuddle:( He LOVES his rice cereal! He knows when its coming and gets very excited. I can't spoon it fast enough into his little mouth. I think I will try giving him some veggies soon and giving him cereal in the morning instead of at dinnertime. I can't believe he's 5 months old already?:( The time has gone by so fast. It makes me kinda sad to think that this maybe is my last baby.
