Just Like Mom

Your kids always want to be just like you. All they see is that you hold this thing to your ear and you laugh and talk and have fun. Looks pretty cool I guess. You are their complete role model. They try to do everything that you do whether it is good or bad. I am always worried about the bad. I always think oh I hope she doesn't learn that. I am sure you all know what I mean.

Isn't it amazing how she already looks like a teenager talking her life away on the phone!

3 Months!

The time sure does fly by when you have kids. It has gone by a lot faster having two kids. Landon is already 3 months old. He has already rolled over from his back to his stomach! He is getting so wiggly now. We moved him in with Brooke which is going a whole lot better than I ever thought it would. She sleeps right through him crying, and I think she actually likes having someone in there with her. This morning when they woke up they were both just chattering back and forth. They sure know how to melt your heart. Brooke has been so amazing with him. She is so caring towards him. Whenever he cries she runs to the rescue. We had him in his car seat when we were getting ready to leave and he was crying so she went over and handed him his blanket, he kept crying so she gave him his elephant, he was still crying so she tried giving him his binky. She is such a sweetie to him!

Mom's Little Helper

Brooke just can't resit to copy everything I do whether it is good or bad. Luckily she loves to try and help me clean. Since she saw me dusting she just had to give it a try. She is totally obsessed with our mop. She helps me burp Landon and wipe his face and she has even picked up the O.C.D. passed on from my mom of having to pick everything, if there is lint on her sheets she has to get it, if i am picking at my foot she is there to help me!

Splash Park

We went to the water park with Megan and Mckade. It has been so warm lately it was nice to let the kids get out of the house and not get too hot. Mckade played with Brooke as long as he could handle but since she didn't really play back with him he decided to find some more friends.

Brooke had fun just playing by herself.
She totally loved these waterfalls. She would stick her belly under them or just sit under them.
And a little heads up for all the Moms, wading pools are a good way to pick up some cool stuff like the Coxsackie virus, so beware.

Swimming

Justin and I took Brooke swimming for the first time. She used to hate the water when she was younger. She has been absolutley loving her baths and when we went to California she had a blast plaiyng the freezing cold ocean. She had no fear of water and would just try and jump in. She loved it so much even with the neck squeezing life jacket on.

Landon enjoyed watching us from above on the chair.

Grandma & Grandpas

I took the kids to my Grandparents house for a surprise visit a couple weeks ago. It was so much fun. Brooke was very well behaved and had fun playing with the blocks with Grandpa instead of playing with all of their decorations!

I wish I had a back yard that I could let my kids go and play in.

Brooke helped Grandma water her flowers and I guess got a little to excited and decided to water her hair too.
