Happy Birthday!!!!

Happy Birthday Mama Wonder!!!! We love you very much!!!! Have a great day!!!!

Did It Have to Happen So Soon?

Baby Wonder is officially crawling! Crawling?! Yes, crawling!

Why do my kids feel the need to be so mobile? Boy Wonder crawled at 6 1/2 months. If she keeps following in his footsteps, then she will be walking by Valentines day. Wasn't she just born? Oh, yeah, I guess that was 7 months ago.

I could see this happening and knew it was just a matter of time. She has been rocking on her hands and knees and scooting/flopping/wiggling all over for the place for a few weeks. Tonight was different. She spotted the her target and decided to go for it. As with any milestone I am so proud of her and excited to start the next chapter. What is really neat is that as she is getting older I can also see she is proud of herself too.

So if you don't have any plans this weekend, do you want to come and help us baby proof the house?

Sweet Talker

Mama: Something smells bad. Baby Wonder did you poop?
Boy Wonder: I want to smell her. (Sniffs her butt)
Mama: What does she smell like? (Knowing full well that she had a load full of poop in her pants)
Boy Wonder: She smells like a flower. (Smiling like Eddie Haskell)

Even at 3 1/2 he already knows what the ladies like to hear.

The Great Debate - Part II

Do they look a like?

Is There Anyone Reading Who...

Has woken up to find the Christmas tree laying across the floor, and shards of broken glass ornaments EVERYWHERE?

The real mystery is how did we not hear a 7 foot tree with all the fixings fall over and crash to the ground?!

I'm off to decorate the Christmas tree for the second time in 12 hours. Hopefully, this time is the last until next year.

A New Way To Tell Time

Boy Wonder was taking a bath and I gave the two minute warning that bath time was going to be coming to an end. Two minutes later, at 7:50, I announced it was time to get washed up. Boy Wonder looks at the clock, then with a very puzzled face says "But the big had isn't on the 2 yet, and you said two minutes."

I Guess It Does Look Like...

We have been working on letter recognition with Boy Wonder. We often ask him what letters he sees, and play I Spy looking for different letters. The other day we were driving by McDonald's and I asked Boy Wonder what he saw. He thought for a moment and then announced that the "Bent french fries look like an M."

Not sure I heard him right, I asked "what looks like an M?" Boy Wonder responds as though he is now for the first time seeing the sign as, dare I say, most of us do. "Mom, the two bent french fries look like just like an M!" Have I mentioned that Boy Wonder loves french fries? I think he sees the world through french fry glasses.
