What can I say?? April was ROUGH with all the wind, but God has been ohh soo good to us here in the Panhandle of Texas with lots and lots of much needed moisture and cooler summer temps! Thank you God!
I just want to say how much I love being a mom, sure some days are hard, but wow, every day is beautiful with two perfect little guys! I've been trying so hard to just live in the moment with them each and every day and have not been so good at recording those memorable moments, even when I write them down, it just can not do the real moment justice. But here are some adorable happenings in my life right now:
- June 7--Eli loves his books! Some of his favorites are "la, la, la" -- 'moo, baa, la, la, la' ,"beep, beep, beep"-- 'little blue truck", and "Goodnight Gorilla" he loves the "eyes"!
- 9--I put a pillow in bed with Eli for the first time and laid him down for his nap and he just giggled and giggled!
- Eli LOVES trains! LOVES them!
- 20--Edward rode "tractor" with Daddy and here is what he told me when he came inside "Eli wave at me" and " Daddy lost my hat" because his hat blew off :)
- "Big poop, no corn in it"-- oh he doesn't miss a thing
- On the days that Edward decides to have a no-nap day, when I come in to get him, he always has the cutest smile and says the cutest things....sigh....
- 25--Edward can dress himself completely and loves to demonstrate his independence!
- "two minutes" is what Edward says when he wants to do something
- Edward always tries to make a trade with Eli, of course, he's on the good end of the trade
- The first thing Eli ask for when he wakes up is "broder"--'brother'
- on July 4th, Edward hated when we tried to do a few small fireworks with him "this no be scary" and none of us appreciated the late night fireworks that went on for more than a week! Edward would wake up, sit up in bed and cover his ears with his hands, poor guy...
- We all loved the 4th of July parade!!
- Edward loves to ENCOURAGE! And I love that about him! I love to see him working with Eli on something and saying "good job Eli". Definitely a proud mommy moment!
- Eli is a hoarder--he always has a handful of something--cars, trains, trucks, bread for ducks, something!!
- July10, Eli must have been really tired around 11, I was out pulling weeds in the garden and Eli was trying to fall asleep in the sand box. He was literally laying down with half his face in the sand, covered with sand, it was so cute!
- This summer we've been trying to go swimming about 2 times a week. Edward loves the water and Eli is liking it more and more each time :)
- We also took the boys to Wonderland Park (Eli's first time, Edward's second time) on June 27th. It was so much fun, they loved the toy boats, cars and Edward got to do a few of the bigger rides. I rode the log ride with him the first time and I will never forget that little laugh when we got to the bottom of the drop, pure joy!
