Songs they sing:
Jesus Loves Me
Jesus Love the Little Children
Glory to God
Old McDonald
Ring Around the Rosie
Patty Cake
Itsy Bitsy Spider
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (mostly Luke, Tinkle Tinkle lol)
ABC Song

On the way home from church yesterday I asked them in the car when they did in church and Taylor says: "I had a SNACK! crackers and pretzels and juice!" The Luke says, "I played with train." and Taylor says, "I colored!" They are talking so much!

Grandma and Grandpa Bair took them to the park and they told me they went on a walk and found acorns, rocks and sticks! It's so cute to see them talking so much.

Taylor has been lining up her stuffed animals and dolls in her crib all sitting up around her and she covers a baby with a blanket. Luke the other night tucked in his basketball under a blanket. lol

They are wanting BIG hugs and BIG kisses from me all the time.

We were watch a photo DVD from our wedding and they jumped up and down screaming MOMMY, DADDY KISSING! lol They got all excited naming people...jumping up and down and screaming the whole time. :)

Pool

potty progressions....Snippets

So Luke spilled a full potty ALL over the carpet. So last night I was renting a steamer and steaming at midnight. :)

Today I moved the potties into the bathroom. Taylor didn't ask at all to go because she wasn't reminded by seeing it. :(

Luke however went into the bathroom and stood by his potty and waited for me.

Taylor said she had to go later and she was in there by herself...

Taylor: {sitting on potty} MOOOOOMMMMMMMMYYYYY C'MERE!
Then she says: DIS SONG! ....Like DIS SONG! {She wanted to tell me she liked the song on the radio} Then I go to leave and she says, STAY MOMMY!

This morning when they woke up I took Taylor out of her crib and she threw herself on me and said......LOVE YOU MOMMY. She was so dramatic about it. :)

Taylor LOVES cooked broccoli with a little bit of cheese and milk. Luke hates it. :/

Everything according to Taylor is FUNNY right now. :) Like this pic.
