Hannah Rolls Over!

Hannah ROLLED OVER!! It was from back to front, which is awesome! I checked Kayden's book and he rolled over from front to back first - so way to go Hannah! The Friday before she was sooo close to rolling over for my mom. And then all weekend too! And then on Tuesday night, the 27th she was just about there. I typed on facebook how close she was to rolling over, shut the lap top and laid down next to her. I was like "whoah - she's close," and went and got the video camera. As you can she - I hit record and over she went!! Good thing I have cat-like reflexes! :) So proud of our little girl!!

Here's what she thinks of the video camera!!

Getting the hang of making the roll on those chubby lil' legs!

Update

So I have a million different posts to put on here, hopefully tonight a few, otherwise I work the weekend - so I'll be sure to do some then. Just make sure to check back and then scroll b/c I'll back date them.

I am back to work - good and bad. I miss my babies when I am there, but love being back to a routine and having fun. I work w/ some crazy people so they keep me laughing!

Eric is working on staining the deck - that will be a chore.

Hannah ROLLED OVER LAST NIGHT!!! And it just so happened I got it on video! So I should be able to put it on here fro everyone to see!!

Kayden is insane. :) His new thing is holding Hannah...here's a brief summary of a Kayden request. "Hannah....mere (with hand motions)....Hannah I said MERE....I hold my Hannah...ohhh HANNAH." He runs around like a crazy man and we are always laughing. Since Hannah is rolling over, I am assuming its only a matter of time before they are both equally crazy and making my hair fall out!!

Not much else is new, the kids are each in their own rooms and doing well there through the night. We switched Hannah's formula on Monday, and hoping for it to help with the spitting and throwing up. Cross your fingers.
More Later - everyone take care!

Happy 2nd Birthday Kayden

Our big guys is 2 years old!! Happy 2nd Birthday Kayden! Here are a couple quick pictures, I have a lot to go through before posting for his birthday party - so I'll do that in the next day or two!

Kayden 7/10/08 - 9:04 am! The beginning...

7/10/09 9:04am, the morning of his 1st birthday

7/10/10 8:00am, the morning of his 2nd birthday!

Roughly 9:04am, 2 years later, hello Terrible Two's...we're officially HERE! lol

Kayden and Hannah riding horse on his birthday. He's such a proud big brother! That is why he is sobbing in the previous picture, we took Hannah off the horse. He apparently wanted to ride horsey w/ his sister ALL DAY!

I love Hannah's little smirk in this picture.

Kayden's Busy Week

Kayden has had some big accomplishments these past couple weeks!! He is now in HIS room, in the basement, in a BIG BOY BED! We put him in there a month or so ago for a night and decided to wait. So Friday, June 25th was the BIG DAY! He did awesome that weekend, but that Sunday was he**. He cries a bit - but its definately a job for Dad. He knows he can just ask me to cuddle and I will. So night-time w/ K is Daddy's job! :)

Kayden also started swimming lessons. Its a "Mommy (or Daddy) and Me" class, at the Stew. Pool. Its a brand new pool that just opened last year. It is so nice!! He does really good. Last week was his 1st week and he wasn't scared at all - even blowing bubbles, floating on his back, kicking, putting his face in the water, etc. The teacher even used him as an example for a few things!! I am super proud of him considering I am not the best in water.


The 1st morning after sleeping in his Big Boy Bed!



Napping in his bed, refuses to lay on his pillows or cover up!


So one afternoon I went in to wake him up from his nap and I couldn't get the door open...I pushed it open only to find K, sleeping up against the door. I pushed it open, ran upstairs to get the camera and came back down to take the picture. He had nuk, bankie, bear, and cookie.
PS - he ALWAYS crosses his feet. Cutest little dude in the world.


"I COOKIE MONSTER Mommy!!!"


YEAHHHH! We went to our neighbor Cooper's t-ball game! K had a ball!


The Cheese Master

Kayden and our neighbors Cooper and Kenzie. They were enjoying juice boxes while watching Eric wax the truck.

4th of July 2010

Hannah's 1st 4th of July & the 1st 4th of July that Kayden "realized" what was going on! He even got to stay up late to watch the fireworks. We had 35 JFK dancers walking in the Stewartville Parade. It had rained / down poured ALL day, we didn't even go down to the park to enjoy the festivities - hopefully next year. The parade started at 6:30, right as we were preparing to head out on the route...IT STOPPED!!! Thank goodness, we had so much fun! The girls all walked, and had to walk fast! Eric & Steve got to cruise in the Denali while my Dad and Kayden sat in the backseat and watched CARS. Kayden was oblivious to the parade he was in! He did get to watch the most important parts when we were done. He went down and watch the tractors, horses, and WEEOHHWEEOOO's (firetrucks) with Auntie Holly and Kailee and Auntie Erin and Uncle Steve-o. Dad and I waited w/ a few girls who's parents forgot them!! Here are some pictures of the day!!

Look at the pretty girl!!! In her little 4th outfit!


Kayden in his 4th t-shirt, before his outfit change! :)
