Two "Firsts" in Edwardsville

On our second trip to the farm, the boys were able to experience two huge "Firsts" with the whole "S" family.

Daddy with Aidan, Grandma with Connor, and me with Liam.

Aidan, Connor and Liam just seconds before their first swimming pool experience.

Daddy with Aidan. Who looks more excited??? Me holding Connor, both of us trying to make sense of the whole experience.
Liam having fun with Aunt Kristi.
The boys 'relaxing' on the mattress with their cousins Ellie and Joey.

Switching gears now... Since Grandma Mary and Grandpa Ron live so far away, we thought it would be fun to have them present as we fed the babies real food for the first time. And as a bonus, their little cousin Sarah, didn't want to miss out on the action so she had her first bowl of rice at the same time. There is no way that any picture could capture the event, but we tried... enjoy :-).

All four babies lined up on the kitchen table, eating for the first time. It looks like Grandma Mary and I have the same approach 'to model' while Daddy is trying to copy Aunt Kristi and Ellie. Continue to see who had the most success...

Connor, Aidan, Liam, and Sarah taking their first bites.

Liam eating his first bowl of rice cereal. Big cousin Anna supporting him in the background.

Liam not happy that it's all gone... It appears that Liam loves rice cereal as much as he enjoys his bottles.

Unfortunately Aidan didn't enjoy the rice cereal.

Connor, not screaming, but now swallowing either.

Sarah looks to be enjoying her first bites of cereal. Look at those cheeks... too cute!!! Big cousins Ellie and Joey playing with all the babies.

Daddy and Aidan wiped out after all the fun on the farm. Just precious!!!
We hope to be back soon!!!
