Who Needs a Double Stroller??

Youc can spend a ton money to find the perfect double stroller and this is the way they like to travel....well not exactly this way, they sit together in the bigger stroller, but this would be cute!

Brianna's 18 mo Photos (click here)

We tried one more time and even though we didn't get a smile she sat there and played with some blocks, which was a huge improvement for her. She would get soo nervous, she was shaking, my poor baby. She's just not the center of attention lover that her big brother is...which is fine between Andrew and Brent I don't think I can handle another one!!

If you look real close you can see that I finally pierced her ears....AND without a single tear. She was more upset that I took away her fruit snacks than the sharp object piercing a hole in her. I think I was in way more pain that she ever was.

Our 5 Year Anniversary

Over the weekend Brent and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary! We were able to have one great baby free evening.

Five years in the making!!

Andrew's 3 year pictures (click here)

I took the kids to get Andrew's 3 year pictures and Brianna's 18 mo pictures....but it didn't work out soo good. We had to wait an extra hour, and Brianna didn't like the photographer....and to be honest I didn't either. Mom called her a moron...which must be pretty bad because mom never says anything bad about other people. She wasn't friendly at all, she almost seemed annoyed if they didn't listen. So it ended up as a HUGE waste of time. But I rescheduled in the hopes of a different photographer and more willing kids. Andrew was the HAM that he always is.

Pork Chops and Brownies!!

Brianna loves her meat. Made some pork chops and decided to give Brianna the bone, she loved it, looked like a little caveman eating for the first time. She sucked that bone clean...Finger lickin good

Andrew liked the idea of eating like a caveman but it was all show...nothing actually went into his stomach.

Where did my baby go?? Mr GQ

They love hugging but not at the same time!

Teething the last molars and i-teeth...its been really hard on her, my poor baby. Just bright red swollen gums and NO teeth!

Brownies made it all feel better

Andrew's got all his chompers as you can see!!

Cheese Face, she's actually saying cheese long and drawn out with her deep voice. I wish she wouldn't because she stopped smiling to say cheese, but it sounds soo cute!

Family Update!!

Baby Update...

Andrew: surprises me everyday with new things to say and he remembers everything, even those little things you want him to forget or not repeat. He tells Brent all when he gets home, good or bad....so now I've got to be careful, nothing passes him :) Still loves his tractor and is getting more and more adventurous after each ride. We've started a little homework session/quite time during Brianna's naps, where he's learning to write and color in the lines. His attention span isn't the greatest so it's pretty short lived. He suffers from what we call SOS: "shiny object syndrome" But he'll concentrate for hours pushing his cars, watching the wheels and how they turn, just not his ABC's or 123's.

Brianna: she continues to amaze me everyday...she's talking and repeating soo much. She walks around the house say "AAAANNDREWWW" she's even putting words together, she says Ni-Nite Go? or Andrew Go? Of course she got My Ni-Nite or Mine! down real good. And she is one tough little girl. She holds her own in combat with Andrew, actually she's more the bully, but she will always hug and kiss when the fighting is done. She likes to take things from Andrew to get a reaction the calmly hand them back....just like little girls should.

Andrew is 3!!!

My baby boy is growing up soo fast!!! Yesterday was all about him (as if every other day wasn't)....We spent the afternoon with his friends at McDonalds for hamburgers and ice cream. Then we went out to dinner with our neighbor and her kids. She was soo sweet and baked him a Huge race car cake!!

The Tractor!!! Just like daddy....he loves it.

Nana's CHEEEEEESE face!
