already

Mitchell is hungry all the time...

So finally Richard asked me, 

"Isn't it time for rice cereal?" 

"pah! he's much too young for that,"

was my response. 

"You dads!" I chuckled, 

"leave this to me please."

And then my maternal instincts inspired me, 

"Hey Mitchell is almost five months old, 

I wonder if he should try rice cereal?"

this boy is ready.

He nearly inhaled it.

Don't worry, he eventually swallowed it.

And then moved on to the next most delicious thing.

But I'm in awe that my "newborn" baby is eating rice cereal...

heartily laughing at all the attention we give him...

{mom, tell them about the rolling thing...}

Mitchell I'm getting to that...

He's rolling all over the floor like a fish out of water...

plus I've seen him put his own binky, ahem, I mean pacifier

back in his mouth on at least four occassions...

The rail in my kid's closet broke...

{I have a point}

we had to move all the kid's clothes into my closet on the bottom rack.

Which means, now they can reach them.

Parker has been dressing himself everyday.

{See below}

I know it's almost July and 

he's in a hoodie...

with a hat on top...

and, between you and me, no pants...

slightly embarassing...

But he's so proud of himself. 

In fact sometimes I wake up in the morning 

{this is going to make me look really lazy}

and Parker will be getting dressed in my bathroom,

wearing his shorts, 

with the shirt he picked out hanging up 

on the door of the shower,

and putting gel in his hair

while quoting movies he watched the day before.

I feel like I'm watching Home Alone.

I love those moments when your kids don't know you can see them.

it makes me laugh

and then I get out of bed. 

=)

What about Colette?

Still in diapers.

Quotes Nacho Libre everyday.

"Every.... day!"

she makes us laugh.

and that's all I have to say about that...
