Remembering

"I wish I wish with all my heart" , in the words of Parker, that I could remember every little thing. It is so important to me that I remember. I love so many moments in my life and it bothers me that I have a horrible memory. I think that is why I am obsessed with taking pictures and making notes. I only hope that it will help, some day when Shaun and I are old and gray, trigger visions of the past. I sort of wish somehow I could blink for T-VO in my brain and then play it back exactly as it were.
More things I want to remember some day...
Parker...
Makes up voices and words for Chandler
"I dont say scuze (excuse) me por (for) part (fart), just scuse me burp." (said at the dinner table)
told Brittany (hairdresser) "I want hair wike (like) daddies."
"My strong" "green beans make be strong and higher (taller) wike daddy. I have to pick the seeds out for him to eat them though. crazy.
The boys laugh and giggle together in the car. Chandler cracks Parker up and they are only 3 and 10 months old. It is the cutest bond ever.
Parker stapled his finger, but didn't cry til daddy took the staple out. Shaun checked and it seemed that all the staples were out, but...there was still one left. oops.
Parker says.. He (chandler) wuvs (loves) me.
Parker saw the space station fly over Owaso.. he waved and said..."Hi people"
Recites from DragonTales. I wish I wish with all my heart to fly with dragons in a land apart. (sound absolutly innocent.)

Chandler...
is so proud when he claps
likes to show his muscles and make you laugh and clap for him
loves peek a book. especially likes to duck behind the coffee table and pop up to scare you.
Still sweetly sings himself to sleep. adorable and precious.
sometimes has a machine gun laugh.
gives priceless, slobbery, open mouth kisses.
is a water baby, loves baths and anything to do with water.
plays with himself in the mirror
learnign to play catch with a ball
stands alone and is so close to taking a step by himself.
Gets so excited and giggly to play chase. He likes to get caught too.
pretends to cry. he even purposefully bonked his head on the coffee table and looked at me and tried to cry about it. Of course I scooped him up and babied him.

Moments with my boys that I would never trade or give up for the world. Every little thing... the looks, the fits even, tug my heart. Every minute with them is heaven to me. I love them with every little peice of my being. Truly, I wish, I wish with all my heart to always remember these precious moments vividly.

Falling Out

Yesterday I took Chandler to the Urgent Care. He was so happy but I just felt like something was wrong because he had an awful cough. He ended up having an ear infection and a sore throat. We got some antibiotics and stayed at home for the rest of the day. He ended up throwing up everywhere that evening, I guess because of all the drainage. Poor little guy, this is the sickest has ever been. I decided to stay home from work to take care of him today. I am hoping the antibiotics work fast. Anyway, I heard him about 2:00A.M. so I got up in a hurry and grabbed some Motrin to take to his room. When I got to his room, he was on the floor. OH MY GOSH, HE FELL OUT OF HIS BED. I hurried and flipped on the light. He was laying on his tummy crying. I cannot even believe this happened. I don't know how he did it. I picked him up and checked him out . He is perfectly okay. It really scared us both though. I woke up Shaun and he lowered his bed all the way to the bottom. Chandler ended up sleeping in between Shaun and I for the rest of the night though. Shaun said that his blanket was bundled up along the side of his bed, so maybe he stood on it and it gave him enough height to topple over. Who knows? One thing I am sure of, those angels I pray for every night to guard him, were watching over him.

Chandler walking

Chandler has been pulling up and walking along the furniture for a couple of weeks. It finally dawned on me to get out the push toys. He loves them and it is so cute to see his little chubby legs trotting along. I think he will walk before his birthday! yay!

Parker is Potty Trained

Yay! I am so excited. Parker may finally be potty trained. We have tried several times before, but he just wasn't ready. On Friday he acted like he needed to go poop so we asked him if he wanted to go in the potty. Every since he has been going all the time. Yay I am so happy. He looks so cute in his little big boy underwear! Also, he is so proud of himself. Oh, and he really loves that he gets bubble gum if he poops. 2 pieces!

Parker's Picture

Parker was drawing on his easel today, like he does often. He said... mommy, mommy look! I draw Daddy. I was amazed! This is his first drawing that actually looks like a person. He told me what everything was, his hair, eyes, nose. Then he said, oh, oh, I draw mouth. So he took the marker and added a mouth for Daddy. I love little kids pictures. This is so cute to me. What good detail for an almost 3 year old. To me anyways!

I drive him crazy

It all started last week when I put a sweatshirt on Parker that he didn't want to wear. He looked down at it, put his hands on his head and said... Oh Mo'om! You drivin me cwazy! Then he started saying it all the time, about Chandler, Aiden, me and more.

Other things he says...

He kicked Reese the other day. Shaun got on to him and said that he is going to get spankings if he kicks the dog. He teared up and came in to me. He told on himslef about kicking Reese and then put his right hand on his forehead and said... Daddy gonna pill (kill) me. I have no idea where he learned that one. The driving me crazy thing I'll take credit for but this...No idea,

He always asked to watch the tuby which means T.V. I think it's funny cause he has no idea they used to be called the tube. That is just how he says T.V.

The other day we had some country music playing on the T.V. and Parker started dancing. He loves to dance. Anyway, he really started shaking his bottom. All of the sudden he stopped and got a crazy look or a surprised look on his face. He smiled and said...My bottit (bottom) is going crazy!

The other day in the car on the way home Chandler kept talking to Parker. He was just saying na na naa naa na. Parker got the sweetest look on his face, reached out and held Chander's hand and said...I wu (love) you too bub. Ans he told me... aw mom, Chandwer (Chandler) so tute (cute) .

Chandler Waves Bye Bye

Chandler waved bye bye to Kristen last week. Shelly taught him how. It is so cute. Now he waves bye bye all the time to everyone. This was just for practice, but he waves really good to me in the mornings and to Daddy.



Chandler also started shaking his head no. I love the way he looks when he does this. It is so adorable. I like the way he looks at us when he does it. I love him so much. I love watching all the new things that he and Parker do and say.
