The Things Out of Ainsley's Mouth

Had to immediately write this down as I am sure I will forget.  Ainsley at the dinner table..."Braeden, Braeden, Braaeeeddennna...I'm talking to you".  Writing it doesn't do it justice but she has been on fire tonight.

Back in bed, back in bed

Moona = the book Good Night Moon
Shoowl = wants to stand on the stool and wash her hands
Fish = The Fish book grandma got her for Christmas
Barna = Little Red Barn book
Pop Pop = Cake Pop
Po Pup = Pull Up

Oh I could go on and on.  The screaming and whining that accompanies learning to speak I could do with out, but it is amazing to watch toddlers speech develop.  She gets so excited when I understand what she says.  One day it took me a while to figure out what she was saying and when I repeated back what she was trying to say she got a huge grin and started clapping. 

Braeden attended his first soccer practice today with Hudson.  Oh boy those two crack me up.  So fun to watch them both.  B was totally pooped when we came home as you can see below...
Car to couch without even blinking.  Ainsley had to get dozy(cozy) too!

Moments of Bliss

I was sitting at the computer just now working on Toddler Group stuff and noticed the fighting over toys had momentarily ceased.  There was a song playing on Sid the Science kid about exercising and I looked over to see Braeden and Ainsley both dancing around the room together.  Hilarious!  The last few weeks I have been pulling my hair out a lot, so had to take a few moments to write this down. 

Braeden and Ainsley seem like they have aged months in weeks for some reason.  I went to Palm Desert to visit Nina and Papa with Ainsley and Johnna.  So much fun enjoying the sun, over eating and catching up.  It was our first girls trip and the first boys weekend for Braeden and Dave.  When they picked us up at the airport Braeden looked like such a big boy.  Not a toddler anymore and it is crazy.

 Someone loved having all the attention for a whole weekend!
 Fun time with Auntie Johnna!
 Loved being in the pool.  Especially kicking and saying hi to Birdo(the owl on the side of the pool meant to scare away birds)
Sassy girl with her little sunglasses!
