Chloe and the Boys

Thanks to Kelly, Pete, and Noah for making
the trip to visit us this past weekend! Here is
Pete and Noah and the picture below is Kelly
holding Caleb.

All of the sudden Chloe is picking
up words at an amazing rate and loves saying
Noah, Pete, Kelly (in that order by the way!!).
Her other new thing is that she has learned
how to pray (well, sort of) and she loves it!
She could teach us all a lesson as she is
constantly praying for people!!! (of course
she also wants to pray for her puppy and
for cookies but what can we expect from
an almost 2 year old?!?)

One more thing that is occupying her time...
the potty chair...yes, she wants to sit on it
constantly...and no she doesn't actually
do anything on it besides sit there and smile...
I guess it's a start!!

Caleb turned 2 months this week! At his appt

he weighed 14 pounds 2oz and was 24 1/2 in.

long!

Chloe has found a little boyfriend to take rides

with her in her car!!! Thanks Malik for coming

to play with us!!

That's all for now! I hope you enjoy the pictures!

Fun at home

Here are some of the newest pics of the kids.
Caleb is such a happy baby and loves
watching his older sister!

I put Chloe to work today cleaning the floors...

are there labor laws against this?!?

A Tribute To the Cutlass

Make a Smilebox slideshow

We say goodbye to you today,

you've been a faithful car for my Kyle Jay.

You've been with him since sophomore year,

so to our hearts you've become quite dear.

Cedar Rapids and Rochester were common places to go,

I'm so glad you brought him to me no matter rain or snow.

You kept on going and in our wedded bliss you shared,

you got me through grad school that's all we cared.

We kept you in Pella because gas was so high,

Kyle drove you to work--you never left him high and dry.

But a fire was too much for me to take,

I said "It's time for the Cutlass to go--this takes the cake!"

2 kids later and we've bought a minivan,

we have too many vehicles for just one man.

So you're being donated to a good cause today,

what a sad event for my Kyle Jay!!

Chloe's Birthday Wish List

When I asked Chloe what she wanted for her birthday yesterday she said that she wanted cookies...interesting...her second request was for "babies". I can't believe how many times during the day she asks for cookies...breakfast, bedtime, and all the time in between!! And to add to this unhealthy lifestyle all she wants to do is sit at the computer looking at our blog, our friends' blogs, and sesamestreet.org....what is this health conscience mom to do?!?

So I tried to upload the video of her stating she wanted cookies for her birthday but I'm having problems uploading videos lately...any suggestions from all of you experienced bloggers?

FUN!!
