Cute things about my kids

I plan to update this blog as often as I can with cute things about my kids as they occur.

Joshua
1) Joshua commented the other day "There are no birdies on the deck because they are in their birdhouses because of the rain" (3/26)
2) He says 'Oc-pus' for Octopus, 'otto' for Risotto
3) He worries alot about his baby brother when he's not the one torturing him.
4) He yells 'pee pee' in this raspy voice - his daddy taught him this!
5) He laughs hard when he 'toots'
6) He likes to share with his brother most of the time - ice cream, gold fish, etc. and feeds it to him

Aiden
1) He coughs twice then sneezes every time
2) We think he says 'aya' for yes
3) Aiden loves to scrunch his nose for pictures.
4) He says Nigh nigh... and blows kisses when you say kiss or love you!
5) Loves to steal joshua's food.
6) loves to wrestle

More to come...

Brotherly love...well most of the time

There's no denying that Joshua and Aiden love each other. Just today, Joshua wanted to go into Aiden's room before his nap and tell him he loves him. And he did. So sweet but then there are other times when his little brother is a little too pesty and the only course of action is to push, scream or cry at the thought of his beloved space being overcome by his little brother. Joshua likes to feed Aiden now either at the dinner table or in the car. It's also not too surprising to hear the laughter from the back seat between the two of them - over what, we do not know and probably do not want to know. I would say about 90% of the time, Joshua wants his brother to come along and hang out with him. I guess that's a good sign because Aiden isn't going anywhere.


Update on the boys - Joshua is talking up a storm and we're always amazed with how much he says and knows. He reads books to us now. Aiden isn't walking yet but is walking with our help more and more and cruising all furniture. His favorite past time is taking tupperware in and out of the drawer. We've been blessed with some good weather so we've been to the park a few times so that's been fun and something different to do. Aiden is quite the ham and one with the ladies. And apparently Joshua also likes the ladies. He has a new girlfriend at school - Fiona. Interesting... We've been attending some birthday parties and it's funny to notice the difference in personalities even so early in age - Aiden is the socializer, gets right in there while Joshua watches and waits to make sure it's ok to proceed. I guess that's a good combination. Enjoy the pictures!

March 15, 2009

It's been a while since I have had a chance to post pictures so I will write less and include more pictures. Grandma and Grandpa just left today and the kids were sad. We had another birthday celebration for Aiden's birthday and I think we're all done now with celebrations. Kids are doing well and we're getting geared up for Spring and ready to start some vacations. Enjoy the pictures! If you haven't checked out our blog then be sure and look at older posts for pictures and videos.


Aiden's and Joshua's new game of taking out the tupperware - many...many times... Here's Aiden being caught red handed.

Bath Fun!

Someone getting into the fridge - just like his brother did...

Aiden isn't so sure about this icing business - photo taken seconds before him throwing up the icing and his dinner!

Birthday cake #1 - Don't be fooled by the smiles - Aiden didn't like the consistency or the icing from his cake but he did like the cake part ok.

My turn, no...my turn!

Aiden's Birthday party Weekend

Well, it's snowing on this fine, March 1st. Today is Aiden's first birthday party!! The party will go on as scheduled since it's not much snow. Good thing it wasn't a pool party. The boys had a rough week as did the parents with lots of illness... nothing major but enough to keep them both out of daycare and to prompt us to move the party back one day. But everyone is healthy and ready to party! Aiden is walking with his walker now!!! He's getting better and better every day... just a matter of time now I guess. I'll post pictures after this party tonight - lots of new ones to see... so stay tuned!!

March 2nd - we got at least 4 inches of snow and maybe more!!!! Luckily, the party time worked out and the weather was fine for people to come over but now the boys are stuck in the house on a daycare day...ahhh.... Justin might try and get out later to the office with the boys. The main roads are always fine, it's the community roads that are usually the problem. With the boys being sick all last week, we have alot of work to catch up on this week.

The party went well - there were bubbles, a pinata filled with special treats, inflatable animals and lots of toys to play with and yummy cake and snacks at the end. We had 4 toddlers and 4 1 year olds! I will try and post pictures today or tonight sometime...
