Busy, busy!

It has been a very busy time at our house.  We move to our new home in North Liberty this coming Monday so our evenings and weekends have been spent purging, organizing, packing, and planning.  It seemed like the move was so far away when we made the offer on March 25, and here we are.  It's going to be miserably hot this weekend with highs in the mid to upper 90s.  Our hope is to have most everything loaded into the moving truck on Sunday morning before the heat of the day really hits. Thankfully we have great family support!

Even though we've been busy we make time for fun.  June is walking more and more confidently each day.  Her tantrums have gotten better for the most part.  She is banging her head into the floor and walls less frequently now which makes me very happy. She's in a phase where she wants to be picked up frequently.  She will stand in front of us, arms outstretched, waving her hands back and forth.  When she is picked up she usually tries to squirm out of our arms a few seconds later.  Then, when her feet touch the floor she whines to be picked back up.

Here are some pictures from the past few weeks:

Working on getting June to stand/walk in the grass.  She did NOT want to do either at first. 

She actually left this on her head for several minutes.  We were both amazed.  

June likes to look out the picture window while daddy mows the lawn and as he leaves for work in the morning.  She waves "bye-bye" to him. Melts my heart.  

She doesn't want to leave things on her head but she will put them around her neck and leave them there :)

June devoured some mac'n'cheese from Mosley's.  Removing the caked on cheese from her face was an interesting endeavor.
