Happy 1/2 Birthday!!!!

18 MONTHS! My littles aren't so little anymore!

I made the kids a cake today and only Addie would eat it. Really boys? They didn't inherit my sweet tooth apparently. We didn't do anything exciting today as it was raining out. Just played in the house all day. We had our friend Laura come for a visit. She was in my 5th grade class this last year and LOVES the kids. She will be our babysitter in a few years for sure.

Nothing really all that exciting going on. Spent 4 days in Marcus at my parent's house this past week/weekend. My sister was home and it's just so fun to play at gram's house! They love playing on their porch, going on bike rides and going to the park across the street. We also went to my cousin's baseball game. We pulled up to the fence and we all sat in the back of dad's pickup. Worked pretty well! For some reason, we have a lot of mosquitos at our house so playing outside here hasn't been so fun. The kids get eaten alive. We would have made a trip to the pool but the boys have ear infections--again. I think they are both up to 3 a piece.

We've had to reschedule 18 month pictures 3 times now. Either weather, snotty noses and sick kids have been the problem. Check back for those soon :) 

Many people ask me if they are talking much yet and my answer is not really! Addie says 18 words, Brady says 12 and Colin about 9. I'm sure they will start soon and then I'll want them to stop! They understand everything...especially Addie. We like to throw a fit or 2 or 10 each day but it's not too bad yet! Loving watching them play and interact with each other. Can't believe how old they are...

18 month check-up July 6th! Always anxious for those appointments!

Good Morning. Notice the boys and their blankets...they walk around with them on their shoulders all day long! Usually I don't let them in their high chairs but it's their birthday so I had to!

Brady

This game is called Diaper Head. She thinks it's hysterical.



Notice the size difference! Colin isn't even standing up straight..



Cute! Brady was not cooperating with my photo shoot.

Cute piggy!

Our friend Laura. The kids read books on the floor all afternoon with her.

Wanted to see the size difference. Colin isn't standing up straight.

Get back here Brady.

This is what she does when you say, "Addie, your baby is crying!"
