Rub a dub dub...

...we love splashing in our tub!

Maggie and William LOVE bath time! They kick and splash and coo. I just love it!



There's been a lot going on the bathroom at our house...Kirby has Tee Tee'd on the potty several times this week! She has a "Dora-Tee-Tee-on-the-Pottyer" (a mini potty seat that sits on the regular seat, and yes, she came up with that name herself) We have had so much fun doing the tee tee on the potty dance and singing the tee tee on the potty song and eating m&m's. She gets really freaked out when she sits on the potty and tells us that her tee tee and hiney don't work, but when she finally goes, her face lights up and she says, "You hear that?"

Happy Friday!

Kirby was the flower girl in my cousin, Hannah's wedding over Labor Day weekend. She did great job! The wedding was so fun, and Hannah was beautiful!!

Kirby told us that she had to go pump her boobies...

2 months...well 2 1/2 now!

Maggie and William are now 10 weeks old (poor babies didn't get a 2 month old post - I guess that's what happens with the second child...or children!) At their 8 week appointment, Maggie weighed 9 lb. 3 oz. and William weighed 10 lb. 4 oz. They are sleeping great at night - about 8 or 9 hours straight!

We are seeing more and more of their personalities emerge each day - Maggie is so laid back. She just sits and takes it all in with her bright, twinkling eyes. I wish I could capture that twinkle in a picture for you to see! She is just precious!

William is a little more high maintenance - he is content when he is being held and still spends most of the day wide awake. He's super snuggly, and I can somehow already tell that he's going to be all boy. We are convinced that any weight he's gained in the last couple of weeks has gone straight to his cheeks! The pic below doesn't do them justice!

Both M & W are full of smiles and coos these days! I hate that there aren't more hours in the day to sit and talk to those smiling faces - it's hard splitting your time 3 ways - there just aren't enough hours in the day!!!

1st Day of School!!

I'm such a big girl - I went to school today! I didn't even cry when Mommy and Daddy left me - I was too busy playing with play dough. When Mommy said, Bye, I love you!" I said, "I love you, too" without even looking up!

I put my snack in the basket all by myself and played in the kitchen and with the blocks. I had so much fun on the playground, too! When Mrs. Hagler and Mrs. Chakravarti opened the door to let our parents in, I got so excited to see my Mommy waiting for me that I got tears in my eyes. Just Like Mama Llama, she came back!!!

I can't wait to go back tomorrow!!




Thanks, Annie, for the precious apple bubble suit - you're a great smocker!!!

Kirby Konversations

- At the park last week, Kirby exclaimed, "this horse is my favorite - he match my shoes!!"

- While rock-a-bying tonight, she said, "You boobies is soooo big! My boobies is little."

-Kirby and I ran a few errands today. She wanted to show me something in the store and rubbed my leg and said, "Come here, sweetie."

- As well as Kirby is adjusting to our family of 5, every once in a while the toll it's taken on her shows through - like when I'm feeding babies or changing diapers and she yells, "Mommy, Mommy, I'm right here." Breaks my heart.

- She taps her finger on her lips and says, "Hmmmm...what have we here?"

- It seems that more and more often I have to use "my ugly voice" before Kirby will do what I ask. After she finally obeys, she tilts her head to the side and says, "are you happy now?"

- Kirby: What color is my hair?
Daddy: Brown.
Kirby: I knew that.

- Mommy: What are you doing?
Kirby: Nuffing.

- Mommy: What are you doing?
Kirby: Pooping.
