Polka Fest 2016

This year's Polka Fest kicked off on Thursday night at the KJT.
My little guy wasn't too thrilled to take a picture with Mommy.
He got a bit more comfortable with Poppy, though.
He loved hanging out with his cousin
Finally, he warmed up to me.
My mother and I.
I'm looking more like her every day.
With our cousins, James and Debbie.
All ready to polka!
My sweet gal and I.
Eli loves being with his Poppy
We got a date night Saturday night to watch my brother's band play.
With my seester!
The next day I got to hold Mr. Levi.
Miss Andie pooped out early on.
Eli and his BFF, Grant/
My sis and I had onesies made similar to the ones that Marley and Eli wore two years ago.
Levi's says "Future Polka Fest King" and Andie's says "Future Polka Fest Queen".
We partied way too late.

Andie is Six Months Old

Our little sweetheart turned six months old on June 5, 2016.
Her sweet smile and fun personality make her such a joy in our lives.
She's such a mess.
Chris' mum and stepfather came to visit us at the beginning of the summer. They took us all to the Dallas Zoo. 
The kids loved riding the elephant.
And the armadillo.
We also took a train ride at the Fort Worth Stockyards.
I love these bath time pictures.
My sweet babies snoozing at the same time. This rarely happens.
Andie got her taste of cereal during this month and loved it.
Someone is getting too big for the pack 'n play. 
We are currently transitioning to her crib.
She loves her toes.
More sleepy time with cousin Levi.
Showing us that she can pull herself up. 
Such a big girl.
Hanging out with Mommy and Daddy.
She fell asleep like this.
The babies all set for a party.
Shes a little fish.
She's just a happy gal.
Selfie with Levi and Andie.
She loves to find the dog toys.
My sweet girl on July 4th.
My babies so excited for fireworks.
This little gal is now mobile.
She's crawling EVERYWHERE!!
She's pulling herself up into a standing position too!
She is also weighing in at 15 lbs.
We love this sunshine so much!

Andie is Five Months Old

Miss Andie turned 5 months on May 5. During this month she has reached some big milestones. 
She got acquainted with Mr. Bates. She loves the dogs and they are tolerating her and her pinching fingers.

That double chin.
She's always so happy to take her monthly pictures
This was her first Mother's Day, outside the womb, the celebrate with me.
Chris and Eli were in Spain during this time so we get some much needed girl time for 12 days.
We took my Grandma Mikula and mom out for Mother's Day lunch.
She loves her Gammy.
She also got to try out the "big" bath tub while big brother was gone.
Love that tooshie.
She played with Doris, too. But, Doris wasn't too excited.
On a road trip with her newest cousin, Levi.
We were waiting in the airport for Chris and Eli to come back from Spain.
Big brother reading to her.
She loves her Poppy.
How it usually goes in the grocery store.
A day at the lake while the boys went on the boat.
Riding the cars at the STJ festival. So many memories from my own childhood with those iconic cars.
Trying on her first kroj for Polka Fest.
She had no idea that she was about to get shots. But, those rolls.
My sweet little strawberry.
All dressed up for Polka Fest.
My sweet Czech babies.
We were enjoying her first Polka Fest.
This future Polka Fest Queen pooped out.
Future Polka Fest King and Queen, Levi and Andie.
This little chunk can sit up on her own now.
Sitting on her own in the little bath tub.
This little girl weighed 14 lbs at her check up. 
No teeth yet, but she's trying her hardest to crawl. 
It won't be too long...
