Calling all American Idol Fans.....

 

Morgan has called it again! So Jake and I have noticed that when we watch American Idol, Morgan dances to the contestants who actually sound good. No Joke! Like tonight when Katie was kicked off the show. While she was singing both last night and the previous night Morgan furrowed his brow and kept shaking his head and saying "NO,No, no."

So anyway, so far Morgan has called on every vote off. We'll see if he keeps it up.

Winter blues.....


Well this winter has been exhausting with it's back and forth temperatures. Leaving everyone restless and longing for spring to arrive. I can't wait for picnics and trips to the canyon.


Does anyone else feel the same? I guess I'll have to get my warm fix from somewhere else. Jake and I are taking the kids to Tucson for Easter, where we will be greeted by the wonderful year round warmth of Arizona. 70 degree weather! I am so excited for sandals and capris.


In the meantime Morgan has found a way to get the exercise he so desperately needs. While I wait for it to warm up enough to take him to the playground, Morgan has found a new love of the treadmill. That's right Morgan loves the treadmill. He has even started to jog a little.
If he doesn't get his daily fix, mommy can count on a day full of tantrums. It has got to be the most hilarious thing I have ever seen.

Holy Cow! 2 months already......

So it's been a while and the kids are enormous. Eva just had her two month Doctor visit and she is in the 95th percentile. She's 24 in already and is still growing like a weed. Morgan is still growing just as fast and unbelievably will be having his second birthday in May.

Morgan has started to potty train is doing really well. He even wakes up in the morning takes his diaper off himself and sits on his little potty and pees.Hopefully it won't take much longer of being on top of him every ten minutes to " go potty."

Eva's blessing was 2 weeks ago and we are ever so glad to have that over with. There's something about the event of a blessing though that just really finalizes things. Do you know what I mean? She finally feels like an official member of the family.....here to stay.

Morgan LOVES being an older brother. Especially if he gets to pop Eva's toes when I am not looking. He's always trying to feed Eva and bring her a blanket when she cries. He really is adorable to watch with her. It's so neat to see how much they both really love one another. Eva's face just absolutely lights up when she sees Morgan, and if you ask her if she loves her big brother she grins from ear to ear and coos like crazy.

I always tell people one kid feels like playing house and two kids is a family. And you know what it's true. Jake and I really feel like a family now. Settled.
