Excuse me

by stephanie | August 8th, 2010 | Posted in Ezra, Kid Stuff, Life, Noah | No Comments

We are working on the boys saying excuse me after they burp. When they burp we simply prompt them to say “excuse me.” Ezra says something that sorta sounds like excuse me. Noah on the other hand pats his chest and says what clearly sounds like “mommy.” Guess he is already blaming me?

My little guys are not wanting to be little anymore. They try so hard to do everything on their own. The new desire for independence is bittersweet. Hooray I don’t have to do everything for them, but oh is it so hard to wait and watch them do the little things for themselves! It can [...]

I finally have removed the Fathers’ Day pictures from Matt’s camera. Yes I am aware that was almost a month ago, but I don’t like to touch his camera. On Fathers’ Day we made waffles, went to my parents’ for lunch, and then napped! Here’s some pictures from our day.

Can you believe it? My babies graduated from the baby room at church. They are now in the toddler room. Which means they are starting to do crafts, sit at a table and have snack, and listen (hopefully) to a story. Here are some pics of their first crafts at church, crowns. Do you know [...]

Health Scare

by stephanie | June 22nd, 2010 | Posted in Ezra, Life, Noah | 3 Comments

The boys recently had a little health scare. Basically they had super high alkaline phosphatase levels (and some other numbers but that was the main one worrying the doctor) and have had on every test we’ve run since we have been home. The doctor wanted to run a few test to rule out things like [...]

Happy Father’s Day

Happy Father’s Day to my amazing husband. You are one awesome daddy. Always willing to change a disgusting diaper or clean-up a little spit-up. You get up in the middle of the night to tend to your babies never complaining. You are teaching our boys to be wonderful men of God, respectful of women, and [...]

We celebrated with Ethiopian food tonight, my first try at cooking it. One dish [...]

Last weekend we went to see my family in OKC. My grandparents had celebrated their 60th Anniversary and we were having a party to celebrate. Plus everyone needed to meet my little cuties! The trip was a lot of fun but exhausting. The boys did not take to sleeping in pack and plays very well. [...]

First D-Backs Game

For Grandma’s Birthday we decided to give her a d-backs game with the boys. The boys had a lot of fun and we hardly saw any baseball. Ezra sat and watched the big screen, clapped, and danced with Grandma and Daddy. Noah on the other hand wanted to run. Running and dragging Grandpa along with [...]
