Father's Day 2009 - What a wonderful day to celebrate the wonderful men in my life. My husband ROCKS as a daddy. His boys think he hung the moon and I think he is kinda great too! The three of us are sooo lucky to have him. Brian works so hard to ensure that we are well taken care of. Happy Daddy's Day to my babies' daddy! XOXOXO Happy Father's Day to my dad of course as well as to Brian's dad. We are so lucky to live so close to our families that we are able to spend the day with everyone!
Brian slept in on father's day morning until 9am! Wow BK (before kids) sleeping in was like until 2pm! Anyway we woke him up with his presents!
Then we got dressed and headed to Brian's dad for a steak lunch - I made Brian's favorite dip as well as the corn. It was yummy. We did presents and visited for a bit before getting in the car and going to spend the rest of the day with my dad. There we had a steak dinner. Again it was yummy and we definitely got our protein grams in that day! More gifts, awesome dessert, and some board games was the way we finished the evening. A great day to celebrate and honor some WONDERFUL men!
The boys have been enjoying going to the pool and lounging in their own backyard pool - with popsciles of course (or as Logan calls them ipops). Look at Austin climbing out. He is turning into a wild man keeping up with his big brother. I think Logan could live off of Popsicles (my favorite and his too are the Mighty Miget Slow Melts - No dripping, SERIOUSLY!)
Something else Logan really loves is Peanutbutter and Jelly sandwiches. He would eat one at every meal if he could. This one paticular morning I gave him ceral with milk, but he insisted on having a peanutbutter and jelly sandwich. He calls them peanubutter and hearing a 2 year-old scream that word 20 times in a row,well, I didn't care that it was only 8am - peanutbutter and jelly it was!
Logan loves to point out what things are while we are reading books (in education terms this is called a picture walk - looking and talking about the pictures, but to him I am mommy so we call this pointing and naming pictures). So I found these great window clings at the dollar store and we have lots of fun (and learning) talking about the animals, the sounds the animals make, the color of the animals, etc - great one dollar purchase!
We celebrated Grandpa Harris'(brian's dad) birthday last week. What fun it was to take two sleepy babies to eat Mexican where they must have went south of the boarder to get the food because the waiting seemed to never end! After eating so quickly that we all left there with indegestion (except for Logan who inbetween throwing objects and stating continuosly that he wanted to leave munched on chips and cheese dip and cheese quesidilla and Austin ate two jars of baby food during the wait to Mexico for our food). Ahh fun times eating out with babies. After dinner we headed back to the Harris house and had YUMO Carvel cake and opened gifts. Happy Birthday Paca (that is what Logan calls Grandpa and he calls Grandma Maca - very cute even when he is screaming "I want paca I want maca I want mimi I want papa" over and over whenever I do something that he doesn't like or want to do.
This week has been busy as I prepare for Brian's 30th birthday this weekend. I will take lots of pictures and be sure to post them quickly.
Oh and we officially have another mover in our house! Austin mastered crawling this week and he is E.V.E.R.Y.W.H.E.R.E, eating A.N.Y.T.H.I.N.G AND E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G he finds on the floor. It doesn't matter that I vacuum daily, his older brother leaves a taril of crumbs from snacks, dog sheds in this 1,000 degree heat, and just the daily tracking across the carpet has led me to do what only a girl that is a cleanfreak by hereditary nature would do - I bought a Dyson. It's a vacuum cleaner that is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.
So that is what we have been up to. July is here, Brian turns 30, I will be working on my tan, saving money, playing with my kids, enjoying ALONE time with my husband, and losing the last 4 lbs from having two kids (I lost 6 inches in 4 weeks during the month of June)! As for the kids, Austin will turn 9 months, 3 months away from turning 1 and I am sure he will master standing up, Logan will continue to grow, learn how to do new things and learn new things to say (oh I forgot to mention that he dropped something on the ground recently and LOUDLY said "oh crap!" On one hand at least it wasn't "oh shit" but on the other hand he heard that from me - Mother of the Year!"
