Tummy time.

I almost can't handle the cuteness. 

Can I say that about my own child?

Scootin'

All about the candy for going on the potty!

Way to go Gray!

Let's do this!

And he's off!

Grandpa Jim and Gray.

go!go!go!

Taking a shady break!

Scootin' in his undies.

No pants, no shoes, no helmet. Must have been Dad who was in charge! :)

Gray got a Micro Scooter as his potty training present. His friend Desi has one and Gray loved it so much that we decided if he filled up his sticker chart for potty training it would be his "special prize!" Well, I thought it would take weeks if not months to fill up the chart. I was wrong. He would have filled it up in a 2 or 3 days had I kept reminding him to put his stickers on. The minute I realized he was going to be quick to get potty training down, we slowed down with the stickers to drag it out. Ha. Anyway, he is doing great with his potty training and is loving his scooter so much!

Father's Day 2013.

Super Dad

She looks so much like Drew!

Love this.

So stinkin' cute.

Look at Gray in the back. I'm not sure why he was covering his ears, but it made for a great picture!

This may be our first family photo since Lou was born. Yikes.

Grandpa Jim on Father's Day.

Lou loved listening to my dad sing songs.

Look at her brow.

Grandma Neetie and Lou Bear. Although I think Lou looks like Drew mostly, sometimes I see my mom.

Cute.

A little late on the Father's Day weekend post, but better late than never.

Hope it was a great day for all of you dad's!

Happy Father's Day!

My favorite part is when I ask Gray what his Daddy does for fun and he says "He loves Gray!" 

So sweet!

Happy Father's Day to all of the wonderful Dad's out there! 

TWO.

I love this one. Looks like she's jumping rope or something.

Yo!Yo!Yo!

I had to put a picture of Gray when he was 2 months. It is amazing how much older Lou looks than Gray. Look at his skinny little legs. If you could see her thighs, you would laugh at the difference. 

Really, they look nothing alike! 

Messing up letters again!

ohhhhhhh.

Lou now has her own big blabla (thanks to Nanny Toni and Grandpa Mike) so we can measure her every month. This one is Pumpkin Girl, she is adorable!

 

Hey!

Happy Girl!

Loves.

HAPPY 2 MONTHS LOU BEAR! 

What a rock star baby! Seriously. So happy! So sweet! So independent! So smiley! This girl sleeps like it's nobody's business. I'm still hesitant to brag about just how long, because it really is unbelievable and I'm still afraid of jinxing it. :) She is enjoying tummy time a little more and really loves it when I sing songs to Gray or Gray sings songs to her.

Gray love, love, loves Lou. His Nanny Toni called Lou "Miss America," so now Gray likes to pat her on the head and say "Hi, Miss America!" It's pretty cute. He has little chats with her all of the time. He loves to hug her and kiss her and help give her baths. He really has become very helpful and seems to have adjusted to having a new addition to our family. He seems to be back to his old self, which I am so grateful for! 

Last day (a little late).

Not too much has changed in 9 months, although I can tell you that shirt doesn't fit him anymore!

Showing me the chalk on his hands.

Gray finished his first year of pre-school last week. It was such an amazing experience for him and for us. He made some great friends and loved every second. 

Now we are on to summer school starting next week! His school breaks it up into two sessions. The first session is gardening and the second is the circus. Not sure what will be happening, I just know that we have been encouraged to dress them in swim trunks every class. Sounds fun to me!

Bring on the ruffles.

It doesn't get much sweeter than this.

Love Lou's face.

She's either bothered by the skirt or her brother.

Hysterical.

ruffles.

Someone looks JUST like her daddy. Woah. 

 

 

Lou's Nanny Toni sent this skirt and top out for her. We had to have a photo shoot in it. 

So funny. Ever since I took these pictures, Gray keeps pulling the skirt out of the drawer wanting her to wear it on our errands, which are usually to the grocery store. You know...Mom in her workout clothes (without a shower), Gray in his funny t-shirt  (uncombed hair and food on his face) and Lou in her prom gown. What would they say at Whole Foods?:)

Can you believe that last picture? Drew and Lou look just alike. Pretty crazy. I'm gonna start calling them Drewise or Drewlou. ha.

Mother's Day.

My two loves.

My newest reason to celebrate Mother's Day.

I can't get enough of this kid.

Gray and Willa having a chat about something important, I'm sure.

Super fly Willa and her Gigi.

Sweet Tabitha.

Halley and Zoey. Sisters.

Little Miss Zoey.

Teething Tabitha.

Jon, Willa, Drew and Gray. Two amazing Dad's.

Happy (belated) Mother's Day!

I had typed up a really long post about being a mother to two kids and it was deleted when I tried to post it. So, because I limited on time and would like to take a nap while both of my kiddos are sleeping, I won't be re-typing it. :)

Instead, I just want to thank my husband for making Mother's Day so amazing for me and for always making me feel loved and special. I couldn't do my "job" without you. 

Hope you all had a super duper day!!!
