Photo dump

some pics of what we've been up to, which is not much. Mark works late hours, so the kids and I try to keep ourselves entertained with the gym, parks and pop corn movie time. We enjoy our time together, but looking forward to marks hours returning to normal.

a fun event at Lily's little gym, she loves it there!

cubs spring training game with marks work, we were an hour late, bit it was still fun. We got seats behind the home plate.

enjoying our sunny cool days

we went to the Toms warehouse sale, 37 bucks for three pairs!

these days we dont eat much sugar, so this was a very special treat for her

the ostrich festival in chandler. She was petting a sting ray.

its been windy, this is the path we take to our place, glad we were gone while it happened.

we got to go to a coyotes game with BDO, it was fun being in a suite, and lily made some new friends. At the end of the night, they even gave kisses goodbye. So cute!

9 Months Down

Mr. Man is now 9 months. It is definitely feeling a lot faster then with Lily. Our little guy is learning fast, crawling fast and wanting to know discover everything he can. He really badly wants to walk, he gets into standing position and puts one hand off to the sky.... and boom! Flat on his back! Poor little guy. He is still so little, he's got time. He's got four new teeth coming in, and bites! He got a good chunk of my arm the other day. He also tries to bite our feet when sitting on the couch little stinker. I love to watch him eat! He makes every bite look so succulent, he loves eating. Despite his love for eating, he is still such a little man. He'll have his 9 month apt next week, but he's about 18 labs right now. Still fitting in his 3-6 month clothing, but is growing tall so they don't fit as well length wise. He has the tiniest bum ever. I love it! He loves bath time, and playing wrestle with daddy and lily. Gives the sweetest hugs to everyone, but does not like to be baby sat, which makes me feel special. He makes my heart so happy. Love my little man!!

Jakey 8 months and other fun

Little man is 8 months as of the 19th. He is a wild man. He does not stop moving! When you hold him on your lap, he wants to jump, and he goes high. He's Crawling everywhere, and has now been trying to walk. He falls every time he tries taking a step and then cry about it. Not sure if they are tears of pain or disappointment. Luckily it has not stopped him. He is eating more solids, especially when he is with his amma, who feeds him like a baby bird. He loves to chew, though he has no teeth and is eating soft swallowing food. He had his first pool experience this week and loved it! Lily did not like her first swim as much, but Jake loves water. He laughs when others are laughing. He's mastered the fake laugh. He smiles anytime he sees I'm taking a picture of hom (most of the time). Its so cute. Ive noticed lately that he will crawl to his room when he's pooped... really helpful! He loves his sister, follows her everywhere and laughs when she is being silly. He likes to follow me into the kitchen to cook with me, and he responds to his name. I may have missed some things, but overall, he's amazing.

this one just made me laugh

 

we have been enjoying the nonce weather, February in Arizona is always nice, but this year its been warmer, so the nights feel great! We went to Tucson last week and spent sometime with Grammy at trail dust town. I love that place! Never took full advantage when we lived in Tucson, but now we have somewhere to visit when down there.

 

 

4 Year photo shoot

Each year I take pictures of lily for her birthday. This time I did it twice, one in Gilbert at discovery park and the other in Tucson this week visiting family. Its almost impossible to get her to look at the camera, but oh well. We had fun. Or, maybe I'm the one that had fun?

I took hundreds of photos, but these are the ones I like most, still need to edit.
