Weekend trip

Oops, so I haven't been too good with my New Year's resolution, which was to take more pictures and update the blog more. I cannot believe how busy we are these days with two kids. I'm still trying to figure how our workload expanded 10 times when Jackson arrived?

The kids are doing great. Haley is quite the talker these days and she amazes Matt and I with what she come up with sometimes. The other day she was playing "the princess game" on my phone and I was being silly singing. She told me, "Calm down Mommy. I'm playing." Matt and I laughed and her matter of fact approach. And yesterday when I told her at nighttime, "I love you," her response was "I love you too, dear." Then asked what that dear meant. She cracks us up.

Jackson is keeping us busy, to say the least. He is quite the crawler these days, and boy that little boy can move fast. The other day I was emptying the dishwasher and he crawled inside it, sat up and looked at me with a huge smile on his face. It was too cute. Then I tried to let him figure out how to get down but he would have tumbled on the tile so I caught him. He has also found the stairs. Today I was watching him and wanted to see how high he would go. He kept going up and looking back at me with belly laughs. He is going to be a trouble maker!!! Guess it's finally time to invest in a baby gate?

Jackson is really growing too. I don't know his official weight yet but he feels about as heavy as Haley! And no wonder why, he eats everything, and lots of it....
like penguins...

and whistles...

and the alphabet blocks!

Everything goes into the mouth. Still no teeth but I seriously think any day.
Haley, on the other hand, is shrinking. Look at how small she is getting....

She was having fun in the rain with Daddy's big umbrella. The other day she was splashing in a puddle having a good ole time and Jackson was watching her laughing up a storm. So I let him get in it too. Those are the best moments!

This weekend we made a trip up to Ft. Worth for our good friend's little girl's birthday. Kourtney turned 3 and her and Haley have so much fun playing together. Kourtney had a bouncy house and a beautiful cake. Haley was so excited and had a great time this weekend.
Jackson was enjoying the attention as well

The girls checking out the bouncy before the party officially began

Let's do it again...

Ok, wheeeeeee!!!!!

I had to capture this look. I have a feeling I will see this again during the teenage years :)

Haley was taking a little snoozer, recharging

You can always tell how humid it is by Haley's hair. As you can see, this day was REAL humid.

After a long day the girls had a snack and watched Dora before bed


Thanks Kourtney for the invite! We had a great time.
