A DAy Off ! !

So, It finally worked out for me. . . .There was a day (a Friday at that) that it all worked out for me to have NO daycare kids here!! I didn't find out 'til 7:40 that morning, but I'm not complaining. :) My mom is now on summer vacation so we planned a little field trip to McDonald's and Fun Run!!! We had a blast with the kids!!!

Abram still thinks Marlee is a little baby sometimes, he was helping her down the slide. At least that's what he said. I kinda think he was wanting her to hit him!!!

I love these 3 pics of Abe, expecially the one with him in the fireman's hat!! He is always just posing away!!

Water Fun ! !

Well, this last week has been too cold to participate in any water fun, but a couple weeks ago we got the little pool out and the sprinkler. Abram and Marlee had alot of fun! It took Abe awhile longer to warm up to the water, but Marlee loved it!!

I caved in and bought 'the kids' a pool this last weekend. The kids had a blast in the fill up stage, but Abram is really liery of the pool. I know that it's a stage that he is at, but hopefully he grows out of it soon!! Marlee took a little bit to finally 'trust me' in the water. Then she was all over the place!!

One of the cutest things that Abram says now is, "I'm takin' off my shirt to go to the beach!" Once his swim trunks are on that is the first thing he does!! Too Cute!!

Marlee Did It!!!

She finally did it!! She got up, walked over to me and said, "Mommy, Pee Pee in the Potty!" We ran to the bathroom and she went!!! Hip Hip Hooray!! She has been going on the potty sometimes like before her bath, but this is the first time she actually said she had to go and completed the task!!

Let's hope for smooth sailing on the potty training!!

I'm kickin' it to high gear!

Fingers Crossed Please

Marlee's 2nd Birthday! !

Jake was lucky enough to win our Farkle. . .So he got to help Marlee open her presents this year!!

Jake and I got Marlee this WAY COOL Trampoline!! She absolutely LOVES it and plays with it all the time!!

Marlee loved to let all the balloons go!

Making a 'WISH'!


Jake, Me, and Abram took Marlee to eat @ Red Robin on her actual Birthday. They sang to her and she got ice cream. . . She was in Heaven!!

Abram's Photo Shoot!

Abram is becoming quite the little model!! He actually came up with all of these posses!! Too Cute!!

Abram Can Write His Name!!

I recently bought the Hooked On Phonics Beginners pack. Abram and I had been working on it for about a week. After one of his 'lessons' he helped me pick everything up and said, "Mommy, I want to write my name." I was so excited, I got out the marker and paper and Abram DID IT!! This was the first one he did!! When we would go to restaurants he would write the letters of his name on the little color sheets that they give you, but I never made him write them in a straight line before now.

Jake and I are amazed at how fast Abram is catching on to everything!! Our Little Man is growing up so quick. We wonder what he will be doing next. . . . . . . . . . .
