Yummy For My Tummy

So we decided to let Janeta try rice cereal. She got most of it on herself rather than in her mouth but it was sure cute to watch. Brother Mateo loved being my little helper and is always playing an active role in Janeta's care.

Because she already has 2 teeth coming in, chewing on the spoon was just the ticket!
What is this stuff and can someone get this crazy hair out of my eyes?

"Sister, do you want me to help you?"

Thumbs up mom! And it's off to the bath to clean up! I think I've used a whole bottle of baby shampoo on this girl's head!

Hairspray

Hey when you're born with this much hair, you're bound to have hairdays like this...have I told you how much I love this baby girl?? She already has 2 teeth coming in!

4 months and 2 1/2 years old!!

We took Janeta to her 4 month appointment on Tuesday and she weighs 13.1 pounds and is almost 25 inches long. I am in awe that my baby girl is 4 months old and my son will be 2 1/2 years old in a couple weeks! Wow how time flies! They are amazing and so I thought I would upload a couple of my flip videos for you to watch!
The first video is Mateo's classic stroll into mama and dada's room at 7 in the morning. He cracks me up! The second video is of Janeta playing in her crib after after she woke up in the morning. This is how this sweet girl wakes up all of the time now! It sure makes it hard to leave in the morning!

After a Long Day at Work...

I get to come home to this: My sweet baby boy passed out looking like such the perfect gentlemen. God I love this little boy. He is so sweet to his sister and he melts my heart.
It was so hot last week and today it was finally in the 80's. Tonight was actually a bit chilly so I bundled up my little Janeta for our nightly walk.

I think she's starting to get some teeth because she has had a cold, slobbers like crazy, and can't keep her hands or anything else out of her mouth. She also melts my heart. Just in the last couple weeks she has turned into the sweetest, happiest little cutie ever! We are adoring every interaction with this little girl!

Back to School

No pics this time so I will just have to give you a written visual....my house is in shambles, both my kiddos are sick, my blood sugars are all over the place, I'm working off of a couple hours of sleep, and I have 35 5th graders walking through my classroom door tomorrow.....does that spell it out clear enough....HA! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Washington Apples

We made it home to Washington after a 2 year absence and it was really nice. It's crazy how much things change when you're gone. We stayed with my best friend Shannon and I miss her already. Here are some pics from some of the things we did.... We visited my uncle James. He was able to play with us at the park, show us his beautiful house and garden and take us to a yummy dinner.
I was able to stop by my grandparents' house and take a pic with Mateo on the swing I grew up swinging on.


Of course we had to take the kiddos to Lattin's Country Cider Mill since it's across the street from my house and the cutest place ever!

Here's my besty Shannon and her adorable son Jayden. Seeing her makes me miss her even more. When I do see her it's as if time never passed! I thank my lucky stars I have her and hope everyone finds a friend like her sometime in their life!

Okay we went to the Great Wolf Lodge and those pictures will be next....(It was awesome!)
