A Few New Things!

We bought the kids a few new things the other day! Callie loves to look at herself in the mirror so we got her a mirror cube toy. She absolutely loves it! She'll spin herself around to look in all the mirrors. She kicks her feet and giggles at herself. It so much fun to watch how excited she gets! Jakobe got some new furniture. He has his very own living room set now. He got 2 chairs and a couch. We have one chair in his room and the couch and chair in the living room. He loves to sit in his chair and watch Spongebob!

More!----Video

Jakobe does sign language for the word 'more', which is touching of all the fingers together with both hands. I tried to get him to do it twice but he thought once was enough :) Oh and he wanted more M&M's.

Go Jakobe, Go Jakobe, Go Go, Go Jakobe!----Video

Jakobe shows off some of his dance moves!

If We Only Knew What He Was Saying!-----Video

Jakobe shares some of his stories with us, before throwing one of David's protein containers at the cat :)

She's Such A Big Girl Now------Video

Our little peanut is growing up so fast. She can hold her own bottle now. At 5 1/2 months old.

A Few New Things.......

Callie managed to learn how to throw a fit in her Bumbo. Here she is throwing her fit :)

Callie also learned how to hold her own bottle :) 5 1/2 month old.

KIDS FEST!

We went to Kids Fest on Sunday with David's Aunt Leslie (Aunt Louy). Kids Fest is a popular kids convention at the fairgrounds once a year. Every thing is for kids. Jakobe had a blast this year. He was able to partcipate in numerous activities: basketball, soccer, throwing, spinning the wheel, got a tattoo, made an ID card, and got a ton of free food, candy and coupons! It was so much fun and both Callie and Jakobe were on their best behavior!!!

Mall Fun!

We went to the mall with my friend Taylor this weekend. Jakobe had a lot of fun playing in the play place at the mall. Some of his new phrases are: "I did it!" "You can't catch me!" and "We all fall down." One of his favorite things to do is play Ring Around the Rosie and he will say "We all fall down" when it's time to fall. Of course he falls along with myself!

Callie Jane is 5 Months Old!

I can't believe she is 5 months old already! Callie weighs 12 lbs 12 oz. She is long and lean. She's our little peanut. She is just so beautiful. Her big brown eyes just melt your heart. She is so pretty. She is doing very well eating. She'll eat 4-5 oz every 4 to 5 hours. We just started her on cereal this past weekend. She did really well eating. Jakobe even got to feed her. He was excited. She also sleeps well. She sleeps in her crib. Waking every 4 to 5 hours to eat. I'm definitely not complaining since she does MUCH better than Jakobe ever did! She smiles and giggles a lot. She will 'talk' to you. She says 'mama' but doesn't mean to. I don't mind though, she still says it :) She can move all over the place by rolling. She can get across the room. She loves to sit up with support. She has great neck control now. She babbles a lot. It's so cute. She is very tickleish, her armpits and feet are the best. She laughs when you take her shirt off, because you have to pull her arms out and she is so tickleish that she laughs. She is adorable! She is good at grabbing and holding onto toys. She is so close to being able to put her pacifier back into her mouth. She is working on holding her bottle but isn't quite strong enough to hold up up high. She loves to play in her exersaucer. She loves to lay on the floor and roll around. She can also push her entire chest off the floor. She likes to be told she is pretty, I think she already knows that she is. I call her 'pretties'. She is so laid back and loves to watch Bubbs. We are just so lucky to have such beautiful children. I couldn't imagine life without them! Just a smile from them every day makes motherhood and parenting beyond worth it! I love them so much!
