All Schools Day 2013

Last Friday, we headed to Mcpherson with mom to meet Derek's family, Amy and the kiddos for All Schools Day. Here are pics from last year. We went to the parade, had a picnic in the park and then went to the carnival. I was so excited to ride rides since I was pregnant last year and didn't get to. Well I quickly learned that I can't ride rides like I used to. Me and Amy took the kids on the tilt a whirl and my lunch almost came back up. In my defense, our thing did not stop spinning! Amy and I thought Harper was going to lose it for sure. She was not too thrilled about that ride. Makes 2 of us kiddo. I felt so nauseous when we got off and didn't think I'd be able to put down that funnel cake I was looking forward to. I felt better after about an hour and was able to eat a funnel cake after all. phew!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Collins was such a trooper. She fell asleep during the parade and then took another nap during the first part of the carnival.  She can't wait to ride rides and eat funnel cake next year. I mean, that's what carnivals are all about, aren't they?

A few firsts

Well I'm slacking on posting these things so I'm just going to throw them all into one post.

 

First time rolling over (stomach to back). I just so happened so have my phone ready and could get pics. I don't have pictures of the first time she did back to stomach. I actually didn't even witness it. I run upstairs for 10 sec. and she did it for Derek. Go figure.

First time sitting up

 

First food (besides cereal)-squash

 

 

 

2nd food- sweet potatoes. And yes, I might just post a picture of every new food she tries. It's my blog and I'll do what I want.

 

 

 

3rd food-pears. I started making her food and it was pretty fun! I didn't do the squash but I plan on making everything from now on. She has loved everything so far!

 

 

First trip to the zoo. We went to the Wichita zoo with Derek's mom, sister and 2 of our nieces. Collins slept through most of it but it was perfect weather and we all had a good time.

 

 

 

 

Many more firsts to come!
