Look who's walking! Merry Christmas to us!

Quinn has finally decided to take this walking thing a little more seriously! I hope you enjoy the video! I can't wait to post some of him chasing his big brother around.

Two more teeth

Quinn has 6 teeth now. he just cut another top two and I need to log it since I have not yet! :)

He is walking more and more every day. He is taking about 10-12 steps at least 3-4 times a day and letting go between things for just a few steps every day.It is only a matter of time before he gets really motivated. He seems to do it for a bit and then do just fine with crawling whereas Asher was on the move as soon as he took those first steps. Don't get me wrong, Quinn has no problem getting on stuff. found him just this morning on Asher's drawing table that he used the small chairs to make his way up. Lord help me with these two boys who are nonstop! I love it though.

Happy 1st Birthday Aidan





We celebrated Aidan's first birthday last weekend and he had a great time! He is such a sweet and happy boy. I can't wait for him and Quinn to start playing together more. Next year, it will be a different story! :)

Quinn Dancing 2


He loves to dance like his brother did! He gets shaking while sitting just like in the video.

He is very close to walking these days but seems more interested in just crawling to get there. He has taken a few steps on several occasions but has not quite become determined enough to actual try to walk without motivation like a remote yet. I expect it will happen any day because just about every day he lets go of something and walks 2-3 steps to get somewhere else.

Quinny dancing

Here are a couple of videos of Quinn dancing. Turn your head since they are going sideways. A mom only has so much time to get this stuff done! :)

Asher is three!



We had Asher's birthday party at the Little Gym and here was the group of kids who joined us. There are his cousins, Aleah & Brie, along with some friends we play with regularly - Gigi, Carmina, Rene and Peyton. He even had his best buddy from preschool, Evan join him. He had a great time to say the least as did all the kids.

He had to have Uncle Adam sit next to him during the circle time. Adam was trying to lay low but Asher would have none of it. He sure does love his uncle Adam who plays "boy" stuff with him when he gets the chance!


All he wanted for his birthday was an excavator and an excavator cake. He has like 3 excavators! :)

Too sweet not to share!

Asher has had a handful of days thus far where he has gone without a nap. I know the days are numbered as far as nap time goes but quiet time is a different story. This was a day where he went without a nap and passed out on the couch next to Emerson around 7:30 which is super early for him. It was too sweet not to snap a picture.

Dragons! Roar!


I found Asher's costume a bit earlier and for a good price. I was glad he was excited about being a dragon because he is getting to that age where he will have an opinion. I think this is officially the last year I get to pick for him! After getting Asher's, it then occurred to me that most people pair the kids costumes. Whoops! Did not think of that when I got it so Quinn got to be a dragon as well because they don't make knight baby costumes. The costume is awesome and so we have the bigger, stronger dragon and the baby dragon as I told Asher.

The reason Asher is the "bigger, stronger" Dragon is because he is constantly telling me that he is a bigger, stronger boy and he can do XYZ now all on his own including cooking with fire, using knives and all kinds of things....some completely appropriate and others.... well, I think not. It is quite cute though nonetheless to hear him say it!
