Such a Delinquent

Wow, I have become so lame with my blogging. I need to be doing this all the time! Like a couple times a month! If my friend Diana can do it, who has a 3 year old and 1 year old twins, I can do it too. I am over due for a lot, but hopefully I can get a few things in to slowly update. It's like a need a day with no Izzy (she's my trouble maker) to reorganize the house, deep clean it and update the family blog...enter Grandma!!! :)
OK, where to begin...So last update was announcing that Preston had arrived. Well, he will be 7 months on the 6th and is my chucky little gremlin man! He is so Roley poly, loves to growl and make noises with his mouth. He just started to say "Dada" (of course not knowing what he is really saying, but it still counts in our eyes), love to jump in his jumper, rolls all over the place (what else for a Roley poly to do?), loves to eat, and loves his mommy!






Our Izabella turned 2 in September and is our wild, independent little girl. She is talking up a storm, getting into everything, loves to make messes, loves to help clean and do the laundry, and is FINALLY off the bottle! Yes, she was addicted to bottles. Not so much where she had them all day long, but she felt she NEEDED one when it was time to sleep. She eats more now (go figure), loves rides in the stroller and be outside, and loves helping with "broder" (brother).
Some things that she says all the time are:
"huh"?- this is an all the time saying. Anytime you talk to her. No she's not deaf, she just has a weird habit of saying it and we have no idea where she even picked it up, because we don't say "huh".
"Cows eat grass. Cows nigh-night. NIGH-NIGHT COWS!"- She says this every time we go over Kirker Pass
"I poop!"-she says this whether she has or not or if she's talking about someone else.
"POOP"- she says this if we tell her not to touch something cause it's dirty or yucky.
"Pooping"- this is said when someone is in the bathroom or sometimes when she is actually do it.
Are you seeing a favorite word of hers yet? lol
"OHHHHH matter Brodher!?"- translation: Oh, what's the matter brother?!- said with real sympathy and concern when Preston is crying.
"I do it!!!!"- self explanatory, Ms. Independent just like her mommy was at her age...and now. lol
"toda!" -(soda)- thanks Papa.
"tookie"- cookie
"nack"- snack
"All done!"- with added hands up in the air for emphasis!
She knows when to say Please and Thank You. She can count to 10 and say all her ABC's, she's been able to do that since she was like 18 months. And she sings all kinds of songs!
She says a lot more than that and trys her hardest to say long sentences, but sometimes it comes out a little crazy.
She keeps me very busy, but she's a lot of fun!





Papa's glasses

Little miss curious got herself stuck on the sticky mouse trap. Good thing it was a sticky one.

Phone Pictures

Here are all the pictures that I have taken on my phone that I wasn't ever able to upload. So I figured I would just post them all in one post. They are in no order at all. In fact, somehow, they got all mixed up. So I will just put little captions for each one.

OK, this is where it totally jumps and is all over the timeline.

This picture cracks me up everytime I see it. Trying to take a cute brother and sister picture, might not happen for me for a while. It all happened a lot slower than it looks. But boy is it a priceless picture or what?!

We went to the ER cause Bud's back (kidney area) was hurting really bad. Turned out to just be a really cramped muscle.
