Warm weather

"Let us out!"

It has been beautiful the last couple of days and it is only getting better! Tomorrow and Friday we are suppose to be in the 80's! Landon and Jalen are enjoying the sunshine! They love taking walks and playing at the park. Jalen is obsessed with the swings. If you stop swinging, he gets upset and kicks his feet to make it go. Today we had a nice picnic with Grandma. Jordan is also on spring break and we get to spend all week with him. Here are some pics from today at the park.

Jalen is my fish

Every time we give Jalen a bath, he can not sit still. He moves all over the bath tub and splashes around. He has also learned to take a cup of water and spill it over the tub onto the bathroom floor. So now mommy has extra towels to clean it up. :-)

Play time!

Yesterday the boys had a play date. My friend Sarah that I have known since 5th grade had a baby boy 4 days after me. Her little one is named Landyn too, just spelled differently. She also has a 4 year old son who is so stinking cute! Yesterday we got the boys together and they had so much fun! We had fun playing the Wii and singing karaoke. Here are some pictures of the boys.

We tried blocking them into staying in the living room, but it was a FAIL! Jalen kept climbing over to the other side.

"We want a playroom, Mom!"

I have a project and I am hoping to get it done ASAP! I am going to turn our dining room into a playroom. Right now it is being used as Jeremy's "poker" room, but I think a playroom is a better idea. The thing I am having trouble with is finding a large enough gate to fit from wall to wall. It is one big square. I am thinking if maybe one of those play yard gates will work and just line them up straight. I will make this happen. The boys need a large space they can play in and I don't have to keep blocking off the kitchen like I am to try and keep them away from the dog food and water bowl. Below are some pictures doing what they love to do.

Reading "Brown Bear"

Playing with Elmo...Landon LOVES this toy!

Eating bones...I can't keep Jalen away.

The zoo!

Friday I took the boys to the zoo for the first time and they LOVED it! The weather was gorgeous outside! I didn't think how they would do for being only 10 months, but they enjoyed it! They had fun sitting in the wagon and looking at all the animals. Jalen laughed the whole time watching the goats eat. It was so funny watching him laugh at the goat. Here are some pictures from the zoo.












Jalen was sleepy :-)

Finally an update!

Hey there cyber world! It has been a while since I gave an update because I surrently have no wireless internet. U-Verse is sending me a new router and it is taking longer than expected because they never sent the order out the first time. Hopefully we will have it again soon. Right now we have the computer hooked up to our PS3 and using the flat screen as our monitor.

So what all have you missed in the week and a half? A lot! Landon and Jalen turned 10 months old! How can this happen already? I got emotional the other day watching them play together. They are developing at rapid speed and growing too big on me. Soon I won't be having babies anymore. I will have toddlers! However, they will always be my babies! It is so neat watching them grow up and learn new things. It is amazing how one day they are not doing something and the next...BAM! Something new! I can't believe I am already in the process planning their 1st birthday. I have the theme and date picked! Now the fun begins.

Last week, the boys had their NICU follow up appointment. It actually went really well. They were testing them at their adjusted age (8 months 9 days) and they were actually above the curve. They were testing in 9-10 month skills for about everything. Except my little Landon being the over achiever and was doing skills at the 11 month level. Landon also just got over an ear infection. Mommy and Landon did not sleep well last week for a few days because teething and ear infections do not go well. We still do not have any teeth. They have had swollen gums for a while now. One day their first tooth will come and then rapidly the others will follow. Jordan is loosing all his teeth right now.

Jordan will be playing little league baseball again this year. He will join the Marlins on the major league for the second year in a row. He loves baseball and is really excited to get out on the field again. Plus the boys will enjoy this year a lot better than last.

Here are some pictures! :-)

A day at the park

We have finally got some nice weather. We are having a few days in the 50's, so we are enjoying the sunshine and warmer weather. Today the boys went to the park for the first time. They LOVED it! The swings were their favorite part and then playing in the grass. Here are some pictures.
