Long Overdue

Well it's been almost 2 months since I have blogged. I can't do it when Ryan is awake and when he's asleep, so am I! Since he didn't have a nap today, he is in bed early. I am totally not ready to let him give up naps, but I kind of think I am losing the battle. Not a whole lot has happened since the last post. I feel like life is flying by though!

Chloe will be 5 months old in a little more than a week! Crazy, I know! She had a Dr.'s appointment a few weeks ago and she weighed 12lb 13oz. She is only in the 30th percentile, which is hard to believe with her cheeks and chins! (Yes, chin is plural, she has more than one.) Her eyes are still blue, and I kind of hope they stay that way. They are very pretty. She is getting really good at rolling to her tummy but most if the time she can't figure out how to roll back and it ticks her off! She loves to blow raspberries and talk really loud. She absolutely loves Ryan. Whenever he comes into view she just smiles and wiggles with excitement. He is getting better with her too. I love when he sits and talks to her and she just giggles.

Ryan is growing fast too. He is talking a lot more and he is the funniest kid. I wish I knew what was going on in that little head of his. The other day he was watching Curious George and when it ended the Brady Bunch came on. All of the sudden I realized he was singing the theme song! He was saying some of the words before they even sang it. Curious George is his favorite show so he usually sees the beginning of the Brady Bunch when it ends, I was laughing pretty hard. The kid remembers everything. He saw me once go into the games on my cell phone for him and now he does it by himself, and it's kind of a process to get to. I think he is going to be a computer genius. He is very much a Daddy's boy and copies everything Dax does.

Dax has a couple of more weeks until he has to start school again. But the little break has been nice. We all like having him home a little more. He is still working on a Biological Engineering degree and he is working really hard. Not too many people can go to school full time and work 40+ hours a weeks. Not to mention having to take care of a wife and kids at home. He is a great husband and dad and we are all proud of him.

As for me not much has happened. I'm still kind of adjusting to 2 kids. It's a lot harder to get things done, but I wouldn't have it any other way! Dax did buy me a juicer for a Mother's Day/Birthday Present and it's awesome. I have even lost some weight since I got it. I never knew we could go through fruits and veggies so fast. One day I was experimenting and juiced some spinach, carrots, and an apple just to see how is would taste. It wasn't too bad but the surprising thing was that Ryan drank a whole glass of it. The bad thing was the diaper the next day! I love that we are all eating healthier and hopefully I can keep losing weight!

Here are a few pictures of things from the past couple of months...ok maybe more than a few...

Just being cute

Ryan brought me Chloe's dress and cried for me to put it on...so I did. I love his little pose!

So happy to be at baby animal days!

He held her for 15 minutes straight and got mad when I tried to take her off of him. I'm going to remind him of that when they are older and fighting :)

I was experimenting and made this beanie. I wasn't sure how it would turn out but she sure makes it look good.

My little family...we wish dad could be here more!

My 2 cute boys!



Two cutest kids ever! Can you tell Chloe gets excited with the lights on the camera?

Apparently this picture took her by surprise!
