Our Crazy Boys...

So one of our family New Year Resolution this year is to focus more on family time on Sunday's so this video is back in January when instead of trying to nap or watch TV we played with the boys. We all had so much fun, Kaleb loves to show us his "new moves" all the time and Jacob decided to join in on the fun. I apologize for my naked Jakey boy but he is too cute for clothes and also for the pant less Kaleb again just too cute for all of his clothes! Hope you enjoy the "SHOW"!

We have a Vampire...

So Jacob got his two bottom middle teeth at 10 months and then nothing until last month when these two came in we were quit surprised that he got these before his middle top ones he now has also broken a molar and one of his top middle with help from big bro's skateboard! Hopefully now we will get the rest so we can be done teething for a little while!

I am big BOY now!

It is official for over a month Kaleb is potty trained! We tried to potty train over Christmas break so that we would be able to devote the time to it, well it wasn't happening so we stopped and then the week that school started he started coming in our room telling us he had to pee so we would put him on the toilet and he would go, so after 2 days of that I decided to just potty train him and he only had 2 accidents one #1 and one #2. It is so nice having only ONE in diapers and we are so proud of Kaleb for being such a big Boy. It seems so weird that he is so grown up and will be THREE in just over a MONTH it is crazy how time flies!

Here are some funny conversations he had with his grandma JuJu:

Kaleb: I don't like showers
Gma: Why ?
Kaleb: I FREAK OUT!

Kaleb: is your pee yellow?
Gma: yes it is!
Kaleb: my pee is yellow!

We sure love our Kaleb! Life just wouldn't be the same without him!

A Much Needed Update...

Lets start with are wonderful Christmas we had. The boys were both so much fun this year. We got to go up north and spend it with my family. It was a little cramped in my mom's 2 bedroom duplex but it was so nice to be with family and let the kids play with their cousins. Kaleb asked Santa for 2 things a hoop and a skateboard(a Woody one of course), well Santa came through as well as some pads, a cabbage patch kid (he loved playing with cousin Alethia's baby so he know has his own that is a boy) He promptly named it BUG! Jacob got cars since he loves them as well as a cabbage patch for him so he wasn't left out! It was so fun and enjoyable to not got to crazy as much as I might have wanted to. Oh and Christmas Eve we did our family tradition of opening PJ's. Tim and I decided to get ourselves sweatsuits since neither of us wear PJ's to bed, The boys of course got Buzz and Woody Jammies since Kaleb is obsessed with Toy Story! Christmas Eve

Play Time with Daddy!

It snowed the day after Christmas! We have only had snow down here once and it melted by the afternoon!


So we had a pretty low key New Years, but glad to have a new year to look forward to! We had a month off of school and were back into the grind of school until I had my second surgery on my left knee. I had a harder time recovering so I have withdrawn from school for this semester, but Tim has only ONE more semester after this semester and then he will have his bachelors degree!!! We are both so excited! As for my surgery I am doing a ton better. I had issues with the anesthesia making me sick so I was in lots of pain the first few days since I couldn't keep anything down. Then it turned out they did stitches instead of staples and when they took the stitches out it was a very horrible feeling since it was a big long stitch through my leg knotted on both ends they cut one end and pulled it out the other end. Not fun! Then it ended up bleeding because some of the incision opened so they had to put me on antibiotics and my leg hurt a little more than normal. They also took out the screw out of my right knee. But March 3rd can't come fast enough so I can walk again! Tim has been a trooper and amazing juggling school and being mommy and daddy!

The boys are growing up so fast Kaleb is talking so much and loving to play pretend he also loves watching Backyardagains. He loves and hates his brother! They are so fun to watch play when they are getting along. Kaleb loves his sports of course it depends on the day what sport is his favorite. He loves to play with his daddy. Kaleb also loves to draw. Our Jacob is full on walking since his birthday! He tries to run with his brother. Jacob loves to give the best loves and he is still our chunky boy which I love, He wears all of the clothes Kaleb wore last year. Jacob loves his Alethia and babies, which he usually smothers with loves and his body! We sure love our boys!

Random pictures of Kaleb the last little bit

Random picture of Jacob!

Kaleb wanted to make a tent so they got creative and took advantage of the fact that I have crutches and used them to make the tent taller!

4 Years

Happy 4 year Anniversary Tim! I can't believe that it has already been FOUR years it seems like just yesterday we were meeting. I am such a lucky lady to have such a wonderful MAN, HUSBAND, & FATHER ! Love you so much Tim here to another amazing year and then some!

Jakey's Party...and Stats

We had some friends and family over for a little party for Jacob it was lots of fun and a little crazy since I had only been able to walk on my leg for 3 days, but we survived and enjoyed having everyone come! Here are some pictures and a video from the PARTY!

And Jacob's ONE year stats are:
Weight 25lbs (95%)
Height 31 inches (81%)

We sure love our chunky boy!

We got lots of help with opening presents

Jacob actually enjoyed helping open his presents

Especially when it had wheels

Blowing out his candle, he actually tried and almost got it!

He loved the frosting

The clean-up wasn't too bad!

Happy 1st Birthday Jacob!!!!

Just the many faces we love from our Jakey boy! I can't believe that he is ONE, it is amazing that a year ago we were in the hospital waiting to meet him and figure out his name. Jacob has been the greatest addition to our little family. He sure was my hardest deliveries in that my epidural didn't work and then he came out with the cord around his neck and the nurses having to do CPR for a minute, but he was perfect and wanted to make a statement that he was a fighter! We have loved having our chunky little boy who has the best smile that just melts your heart, he is our snuggler, he will play and then come give a hug or just put his head on my lap then go play more, we love it. Jacob is also our jabber boy he can say Mama which usually comes when he is crying, Dadda, and whats that, at least those are the words we can understand. He is a funny lovable boy with a bit of a temper (the nurses pointed it out in the hospital) which usually only shows when he is hungry or upset at his brother lets hope it stays that way! Jakey loves his brother although sometimes he likes seeing what he can do to make Kaleb go crazy! I love seeing my boys play or hear them in the morning playing with each other on Jacob's bed. It is one of the sweetest sounds in the world. We love you Jacob and can't imagine our family with out you!
