Wow, it has been a very long time since we last updated.  Sorry!  It has been a busy month.  Michaela is getting so big.  She has her 4 month well check tomorrow with her doctor so we will know for sure then just how big she has grown in the last 2 months.  Felicity continues to be a very helpful and loving big sister, but does have her moments where her 2-year-old side comes out and comes out BIG!!!

IMG_6378Michaela has hit a couple of major developmental milestones and has had a bunch of “1st’s”.  Around the end of June she found her toes.  Now she plays with them all the time.  When you lay her down on her back the first thing she does is play with her feet.  Shortly after discovering her feet she learned to roll over from her back to her tummy.  Now she goes in both directions.  The day she learned she could roll herself over she was so proud.  She would roll from her back to her tummy and then from her tummy to her back.  That is how she spent her day, rolling back and forth!

Her first for this month were the first time swimming, her first time in the big bath tub and her first bowling trip!  On July 4th we went over to Randy’s sister’s house (Aunt Jane and Uncle Peter’s house) to go swimming.  Michaela loved the water and thanks to Auntie Margaret for the bathing suit small enough to fit her.  She had fun, but also knew her limits.  When she was done swimming she let us know.

We decided a few days ago that she was just getting to big for her tub that fit into the sink.  That and she was splashing and kicking and getting everything soaking wet!  So, we started giving her a bath in the big tub.  She is still taking a bath by herself though.  She is not quite big enough to take a bath with big sis yet.  Now she has tons of room to kick and splash around!  Although we have pictures of this event, they may not be internet publishable.  :)

Her last “1st” just happened on Friday.  Friday the 25th was Randy’s 31st birthday.  We went swimming in the morning and then went bowling in the afternoon.  It was also Felicity’s first time bowling.  We had a great time and both girls were so good!  Felicity did very good bowling.  She even beat her dad!!  She did have the assistance of a ramp and the gutter bumpers.  I took a pictures of the scoreboard at the end of the game, but since Randy came in last on his birthday, I won’t post it . . . out of respect for my elders!!  :)   Just kidding babe.  I love you.  Anyway, we had a great time!
