Pooping like the doggies do

This photo will be best interpreted in the dialog prior to this event.  Gavin running is from outside "Mommy, I got to go potty. Go outside?" Me- "you can go potty outside G." Gavin- "I can go potty outside! Okay! Yeah! I go potty outside!"...Next thing I know we are cleaning poop off the patio with the hose.  Then he comes to me and says "I dont poop outside, only doggies poop outside."  Only a little too late.  Sorry for the nakedness of my child, but it was too funny not to post.  


Egg Carton Wormie

Today's craft was making a worm out of an egg carton!  We painted them, gave them googly eyes, and pipe cleaner legs.  Gavin was SET on his being all red.  Avery (AKA Lizard.) was playing on the floor, striking a pose,  and playing with tupperware. 





Cookie Time!

Alphabet sugar cookies!  Gavin is such a helper cleaning up those extra dough pieces! 



Baby Chicks

The Chicks!  We like to take them outside and play.  6 tiny little chicks!  We love them.





Diva Chick

She is always so happy when she wakes up from her nap!  Gavin always loves climbing up on the side of the crib to say hello.  yesterday I said "Talk to her honey..." he replied "mommy, she cant talk, she doesn't know how."



Haaaayyyy Girrrl. Wassuuup?

These kids! I love them!





Easter Eggs

Easter Eggs!  Gavin LOVED getting these ready for the Easter Bunny!  HE also loved finding them the next morning, and he OCD got the best of him (hence the line up)  Needless to say, Avery liked them too.





This Girl...

This girl...loves her food!  Also, she is really good at rocking leg warmers.  She has like 5 pair. 




Biker Mania

Gavin is a maniac on his bike.  He rides up a hill then comes down balancing with his feet up.  He has a training wheel bike, he just cant work the pedels yet.  but I think it will be sooooooon. 




Easter 2012

Our Easter project.  We made an Easter bunny and Easter chick out of paper bags! 





Better late than never...

I realize that it has been extremely long since my last post.  5 Months since new pictures, and I also realize how much kids change within a 5 month time frame.  My apologies. My kiddos are so fantastic!  Avery turns 9 months next week.  She has 2 teeth and she is changing everyday.  She has quite the personality, much different than Gavin was. She makes everything more dramatic, growls and screams at you when she wants something, and she knows she can milk it more with Daddy.  We just gave her her first mani/pedi today!  She is such a girl.  she will crawl crawl crawl and then stop to pose on her side and throw her shoulder back like a model!  She is a bossy sassy little girl!  We love her to pieces!
Gavin is 2 1/2...do i need to say anymore.  No seriously, he is still (for the most part) a good boy.  He is mostly potty trained (except for bedtime), still LOVES riding hid bike and playing outside.  He is talking so much better, and using full sentences and reasoning with us.  He is definitely Ren's child.  He is like the king of negotiation!  He loves Legos and Ren had most to do with that!  The best thing is...he LOVES playing with Avery,  now that she is in a more mobile and fun age.  He will cry at her door sometimes when I put her down for a nap.  I sure love my kids.  For Mother's Day Ren brought home baby chicks, and both the kids love playing with them.  Gavin is actually really gentle with them, and when he holds them he says "Hey chickies, its me! Its me chickies!" I will post a bunch of pictures.  just to get the most recent goodies.  I will try to get better at keeping this up.
