Harrison's escaping skills...

He can officially get out of his crib, open his door, open the top of the stairs babygate, and open the front door.

Mom and dad need a new plan. Fast.

"I'm so happy, mommy"

My favorite phrase for the past week by Harrison.

1,2,3

One, two, cwee

Baby Chase

Max is learning to be gentle with those smaller than him! Harrison has always been a sweetie to babies. The boys love having Baby Chase over.

Things to miss

It sometimes brings me to tears thinking about the things that I will miss as our little boys grow so quickly. When Harrison used to say, "kicks" for "six," "beven..." "Pick YOU up!!" Me and You's can be so confusing.

I can't wait til the boys share a room.

Water Fountain at the Spectrum

Max loved it!

Cheerios Face

Dada sure knows how to make eating fun... Funny

Mothers Day

The kids are getting quite used to be the center of attention. But how can we resist??

Miss Grandma

Soooo cute...

Self Portraits

Auntie Moni might have had something to do with this...

A budding photographer. I'm pretty sure he learned these self portrait techniques from his mom and Auntie Moni.

Max Down

So, I did it. It finally happened to me, every moms' worst nightmare. I dropped Maxton. Tried to save Harrison from a bike falling on him, and dropped the other kid. People told me this would someday happen but I was hoping it wouldn't.

I think he's ok, he has a little scratch and not much bruising. My bruise is bigger so I feel better (from the bike falling on me).

Any of Max's shortcomings can be blamed on Saturday, "when my mom dropped me on my head..."

:(

A nice post Easter lunch

Max is 9 months...Harrison is counting...

Maxton update: He has six teeth already. (Harrison got his first at nine months.) He can stand up, crawl, sit down, clap his hands, and carry a full conversation with you, drool and all.

Harrison update: he can count to 20 and knows a few colors. He's slowly piecing together sentences. My favorite so far is when Max cries he says "Max...Mama..." sniff sniff (he knows that Max needs me) I guess that isn't really a sentence...

Oh, if you're surprised about the counting it might mean he plays with our phone/his iPod too much. We have an app that teaches counting.

Auntie Moni's Ukulele lessons

And Moni thought Boogie didn't like them...

Morning Breakfast

Potty time

HH peed for the first time last Sunday. We are still working in pulling up our pants after. 

Morning Milk

Daddy quote of yesterday

"Being parents is hard." JT

Then we fell asleep at 7pm.

Craft time

Max really loved "participating" with glueing shapes (eating rather) yesterday. Harrison always insists Max wears a smock also.

Mr. Cool with Lu Lu

Harrison and Max really like Marilou, and I'm so glad and lucky things are working out. I hope she likes us too, and stays with us for a while.

Apple Juice

Harrison said "aaah aaah juisssss" today...

Happy 6 month bday Maxton!!

Time goes so fast, and slow at the same.
