Olivia @ 6 months

April 30, 2011. Happy 6 months Baby O!
Olivia, O, O, Olivia...6 months old. She is able to sit up, loves her big brother....likes to put her fingers, toes and plush friends into her mouth. She drools like mad and loves to smile and giggle. Her hair is growing but she still has her signature style. We call it the peacock. She sleeps through the night and eats real well. She likes to fall asleep in the car and loves being carried facing forward. She loves the jumperoo, the saucer and just simply sitting in the highchair. She's full of personality, her little voice can make big sounds. Loves bath time, and the many smooches from her Mommy, Daddy and Big Brother Landon. Happy 6 month Baby Girl!

Landon @ 21 months

Landon turned 21 months on April 19th. I can't believe I missed the posting...life has certainly been busy. It's been just Norman and I with the kids lately...it takes all of our energy but it's all so worth it.

My baby boy really is a toddler now. He speaks a little bit more clearly, he says: Landon, yes, sit down, what's this?, bah-bah, buzz, hi, bye, ma...he says a whole mess of other words, but I haven't figured them out yet. He's still a mad drooler, loves to explore and is still very adventurous. He loves to watch: Cars, Handy Manny, Super Why, Toy Story 1, 2 & 3, Nemo...and the newest movie fav is Monsters, Inc. It is so funny to watch him crack up and smile. I love the sound of his little feet as he runs around the house...so cute.

His palette for food has not been as consistent as I like but he is eating and does have a few favorites. Loves yogurt, tangerines, oranges, grapes, strawberries, any kind of berry, watermelon, apples, bananas...basically, he hasn't rejected fruit. He also eats oatmeal, eggs, rice, tofu, noodles, pasta, chicken, cheerios,  & applesauce...and if he sees a chip or cookie, he'll ask for them. No veggies are part of his diet but I do try sneaking it in his food. If I can get him to eat his noodles or pasta with sauce, I could hide it in there, but the boy likes it plain.

He is not close to being completely potty trained but we are gettting there.

Happy 21 months Landon!

Our Sunday - April 17, 2011

 We tried rice cereal again...not sure if she actually swallowed any but she loved the spoon.

 They play together...Olivia loves it when Landon comes around.
 Olivia: I love playing with my toes.
Olivia is smiling for Daddy.
  
Olivia loves to watch the moving friends up above.
 The many faces of Landon.
Landon loves to run around with his two peas....
throws them and says "wo-wo" for his imaginery dogs to fetch them.
He's recreating a scene from Up. So cute.

L & O - Update April 14, 2011

Olivia:  My finger is in the gettin' ready position...
 because two fingers in the mouth is much better than the one.
Olivia:  I like to change it up. One finger in the mouth and 
I'm gonna use the other hand to hold onto my foot.
 Landon: no eating your finger.
 Landon: show me how a lion roars
 Olivia: I think I'm about ready for the jumper.
 Landon: I love bath time.
Landon: I'm sporting Olivia's hairstyle. Loving my new cup too.

The ducks were full at Almansor Park

 We went to Almansor Park last Sunday after Landon's nap to feed the ducks.
Only we think we got there too late in the day because we think that they were full.
So Landon decided to chase the pigeons.


Daddy and Landon just watched the bread float in the water...hoping the ducks would come.
Throw the bread into the water and they will come.
 After feeding the ducks we walked to the open field.
Landon doesn't quite get the concept of soccer...
...but it is just so cute to watch him run and throw the ball.
At moments, the leaf or twig on the grass was more interesting...
When Landon decides to lay on the grass...it means that he is out of gas and it's time to go. 
Olivia was there too...she slept in the stroller the whole time.
