I'm struggling with posting lately as you can tell by my lack of posts. That is mainly because I have been slacking on my picture taking. But they have still been saying new funny stuff that I want to remember so I will write down a few here and update you on the rest of our life.
1. Our new nephew McKay was born on June 1st at a healthy 9 lbs. 1 oz. He is so adorable and most importantly healthy. We are so glad he is finally here!
3. Eric went on a 4 day boys trip to Lake Amistad which is right near Mexico. He says it was beautiful and wants to take us back there sometime. They spent the first day driving and stopping at a job and then the next few camping and boating. Here are some pics of Eric on the knee board enjoying the beautiful lake!
4. 12 weeks! I am 12 weeks pregnant now and starting to feel the morning sickness lift. It seemed to be gone for a week but then returned this week. Oh well, it is definitely getting better and on its way out. My belly is showing already but I just feel fat. I'll get a picture soon. Other than that everything is going great so far.
Now onto the girls. They are so funny and make me laugh constantly at their use of words.
Livy: It's not "yers," it's "mys"
That is her new favorite thing to say. Especially when I touch one of their toys or something like that. Her paci is the funniest because she tells me that and says "you a big girl" like I try to tell her in trying to get her not to use it.
Rachel: "not me"
Her new favorite thing to say. She uses it everywhere. When we were looking at the new house Eric tripped going down the stairs so we were talking about it and she had to keep saying, "not me". It's her new "no". Do you have poopy? Not me.
"Nin"
Now Rachel has shortened Niny (Livy) to Nin. It is pretty funny. She sounds so grown up. "Wheres Nin?" or "Here Nin".
They are starting to tell me things I tell them too. Like..."don't touch that mommy, it's not yers" and they like to put stuff in certain spots "to keep it safe" although I don't recall telling them that but whatever, it's funny. If they drop their snack or lollipop, they don't pick it up and eat it anymore, finally they say "it's dirty."
And I had to start using the guilt card on Livy. Every time we go out to the car she wants to run down the block. So now I say, "Livy don't go down there, you'll make me sad, I'll cry." And it works. She runs back and gives me a hug and tells me "It's OK mommy." So cute and so sweet, I almost feel bad doing it to her.
And I have to write how sweet they are most of the time. They say thank you for everything and it is adorable to hear them say "thank you mommy" even just for putting medicine on their boo boos. And they always ask if others are OK. If someone falls or coughs or anything they ask if they are OK. Sometimes there is even a pat on the back. They call me sweetie sometimes too, "hi sweetie", it's quiet funny. They are so adorable and I love being with them everyday to hear all this great stuff.
