Cottage Cheese

Claire is a little obsessed with cottage cheese....

Whatever makes her happy!!

Ball Boy

This little man is crazy about balls. He loves them! Last night I made the mistake  of putting a shirt on him with a basketball on it. As I was rocking him to sleep he realized what was on his shirt and he couldn't handle it. He was so happy. He kept point at his shirt saying "basketball, basketball!!!" It took a good 20 minutes to settle him down! I love that kid!

Best Buds

It seems like the older they get the better friends they are. Claire has always lived Oliver, but now Oliver is her best friend. She doesn't mind sharing with him because she tells me, "Sharing is caring". She also loves the idea that she can teach him through her example. 

Oliver is obsessed with Claire and will do anything that she is doing. He calls her Claire Bear but it sounds more like Lare beer. 

Now, nothing is more fun then to do something goofy together. Claire can get Oliver doing that deep belly baby laugh. 

They are both obsessed with baby dolls right now and will play baby dolls together. 

This is them wrestling. They love to do this before bed. 

There is nothing sweeter than sibling love. It definitely makes both of them better people!

Growing Up

This little girl is just growing up like crazy! The other night she was having a hard time going to sleep (which isn't unusual) so I jumped at the opportunity to rock her to sleep. 

It was just pure sweet joy. I know these moments are going to become fewer and fewer and I just eat I every last baby love I can give her. She is one remarkable girl! 

Family Date!

We went to a strawberry - asparagus festival today. Who has even heard of such a thing?!?! But seriously, it was awesome on so many different levels. It just may become a family tradition!

Our silly little strawberry! Man, we love her!

The kids loved the alpacas!  Oliver kept saying, "dog! Dog!" Claire just wanted to snuggle them and never leave. 

After we went to the farm we went to some ancient Indian mounds. It was a t a place called Fort Ancient. Some of the most beautiful land I've seen! I told Ryan we need to get some land there!

Claire and Oliver loved our "family date". Right now Ryan and I are a little too obsessed with our kids to leave them for regular dates so we just decided to turn our dates into family dates and we couldn't be happier!
