Growing Silly Love

Matthew's New Thing: Mr Matthew turned two months old yesterday. The little man was maxing out his 3 month onesie I dressed him in yesterday morning so we decided to change out his clothes. At two months old, he is now in 6 month clothes! Most his winter clothes are in the 6 month size. I am thinking I need to get the boy some 9 month winter clothes. aye. (Growing)

Grace's New Thing: Brian often tells Grace "you are silly". She has started saying "noooo Gracie not sigy. Daddy sigy!" She then bursts out into in a huge belly laugh. It is amusing but then when she gets to the belly laugh part, you can't help but laugh with her over her enjoyment of telling her dad that he is silly. (Silly)

Sophie's New Thing: Sophie has started to tell me "I luv you". It melts me heart every time. Often when I scoop her up for a hug I will whisper in her ear "I love you". For the first time this weekend, she told it back it to me. She has repeated the phrase in the past but never said it without being asked. Melts a mamma's heart, I tell ya! (Love)


My Mommy Thought: If all we are able to do with our kids is "Grow Silly Love" then we have done pretty darn good. I think that is a phrase I will have to keep on using to remind myself to enjoy how precious the days of childhood are and how blessed we are to have them times three!

I love you and kisses

Sophie's new thing: Sophie will offer up kisses if you ask her for them. You hear her little lips smack but she doesn't actually kiss most of the time. I have found her kissing her "bebe" and Grace too.

Grace's new thing: Brian tucked Grace in to bed last night. He told her he loved her and asked her if she could say I love you, daddy. To his surprise, Grace told her daddy "I love you, dada" in response. He must be a special to get his little girl's first ever "I love you!"

Our house continues to be as crazy as ever. Some random updates about what the girls are up to these days ...
Grace loves to grab my hand and drag me out to the kitchen to "d" ("d"=dance to the Leap Frog Fridge DJ). Grace loves reading her Elmo seek and find book and picking up objects off the pages. Grace still loves to "cook" stuff in her play kitchen so any snacks she is given becomes fair game to be added to the play pots and pans. The play pots and pans seem to end up in our kitchen sink to be cleaned out on a regular basis these days! I spotted one of Grace's two year old molars finally coming in the other day when I brushed her teeth!
Sophie desperately wants to jump at only 14 months of age. (Jumping is a skill generally learned at age 2 or so.) Sophie loves to read the animals book and has added "pig", "turtle", and "sheep" to her growing number of words. Any animal name that Sophie doesn't want to say becomes "sheep". I guess she likes sheep? Sophie has become attached to a blanket her Grandma Williams made for her baby cradle. She looks like a doll carrying it around. Sophie now has six teeth and will still eat anything you give her.
