A Little Behind 8-28-07

It's been a while since I have posted - I am not sure what I was thinking when I decided to post every week. Did I forget I have two small children?

The kids have been keeping us busy, with tea parties, all nighters (my boy can eat), gymnastics, walks with babies, 4-month appointments, concerts (Sweet Pea, the solo two year-old wonder), starting cereal, the final steps of potty training, etc. But to add to that, I just started school and soccer again after a baby hiatus, just as my work schedule shifted into overdrive. Luckily I have the best husband and the kids have the best daddy in the world (I am open to debates on the subject, but I like my chances :-)).

We have been having a great time. I finally put Bear's bed together, with the help of my gracious sister-in-law. I feel better now that he has a place of his own, even if he has to share his room with my computer desk. Now, I just have to convince his daddy that we NEED to paint and decorate his room, even though we will be moving out in less than a year. It just isn't right that he won't have pictures of his nursery (I know, I know, boys don't care, but I have this need to keep things equal)! Bear also just had his 4 month appt and it went great! He weighs 16.5 lbs (80th%) and is 26.5 inches (95th%) long! He's rolling over both ways and eating cereal. Wow, next thing you know we'll be waltzing to "It's a Wonderful World" at his wedding! Speaking of weddings, Sweet Pea is already trying on veils. Hopefully her daddy won't have a heart attack when he sees those pictures. It's bad enough that I may have to sneak her out of the house next week when she starts school (MDO). He gets real jittery and starts sweating every time we talk about it. She is definitely Daddy's Girl.

Anyways, of course I have some cute pictures to share:

New Pictures 8/12/07

Well, I have finally added new pictures. We haven't been up to much lately, but the kiddos sure have been having fun.

In one of the pictures, Sweet Pea is sitting on my bathroom sink next to Bear in his Bumbo, both in sunglasses of course, while I fix my hair. Daddy thought that was pretty funny, so he took a picture. Another picture is of one morning when Bear was sitting in his bumbo in the living room and Sweet Pea pulled up his bouncy seat and sat next to him so she could hold his hand. It was the sweetest thing - we didn't have the heart to tell her she is too big for his seat. The "Rock Star" picture is from the other day when Sweet Pea was putting on a concert for me and Bear with a flashlight as her microphone. The singing and dancing wasn't enough - she had to dress the part too, by putting on sunglasses and Bear's shirt, backwards! She is quite the entertainer. She actually started her concert when Garth Brooks was on Oprah and she decided to sing along. She just happened to be playing with a flashlight at the time. I really think these are the moments that I will remember forever. I also got a couple of quick video clips I will try to post. We ended up going to a concert by the lake later that night and she had a blast singing and dancing along. And Bear had fun sitting with his Nana while enjoying the tunes.

I am having a blast with these two. There never seems to be a dull moment.

Hope you enjoy the pics!

These videos are funny...
