Feel good mommy moments

My friend posted some "mommy moments" on her blog and I thought it was a great idea, I have mommy moments every day where I want to remember them forever.

Here are a few from Taylor:

*She was going to sleep and saw the shadow on her wall and told me her wall said "boo" to her and then asked me to stay with her.

*When we hug she pats my back

*When we are snuggling she rubs my arms like she is petting me

*When we snuggle after nap time, she loves to cuddle at that time and that is about the only time I get to keep her in one place

Here are a few from Carter:

*When I walk into his room in the middle of the night and he smiles so big and kicks his legs like he is so happy to see me

*When I feed him and he holds my hand

*When I burp him and he lays his head on my shoulder

*When I tickle him or talk to him and he lets out a big laugh with a big gummy smile

I love being a mommy!!

Crown Center

Today we went to Crown Center for a fun day. We went to see the Legos, ate at a restaurant called Fritz's where they have a choo-choo train deliver your food, and we played at Kaliedoscope. There the kids could make different crafts and explore. Then after that we went to the water fountains to cool off. As you can see this is a nice water play place, there were lots of kids having a good time...and our daughter, well she is playing in the mud puddle. She played most of the time in the mud and sand. We finally made her get in the water to wash off. And Carter... he was all smiles, laughs, and sleeps the whole time.

Kids and the Bathroom

Before I had kids everyone would tell me that many things would change after they came along. One thing I always heard was you will never go to the bathroom again by yourself. This is a true statement. As you can see Taylor was trying to come into the bathroom and she was talking to me through the crack of the door telling me to let her in.

Swim lessons

Today was Taylor's first day of swimming lessons. I thought maybe she would be scared of the water since she really hasn't been in a big pool and because of the rain I thought it would be so cold she wouldn't like it. I was wrong. She was the last kid out of the pool! She loved it and can't wait to go tomorrow. She swam for a ball, sang songs, floated around, and played on the noodle. Her and daddy found another use for the noodle as well--a microphone. Carter slept soundly in his car seat. We go again every day for 2 weeks, it should be fun!

Kiss!!
