Random Things





1. I found myself a personal trainer. The other day we went for a walk and Janey decided she wanted to run instead of ride in the stroller. When she got out she took off and said " Mama I fast!" She then preceeded to make me run with her and whenever I would stop to walk next to Kevin she would come and get me and yell "GO GO GO!" The sad thing is that she actually ran as fast as I do! She ended up running over a mile on that walk...I am not exaggerating!
2. I have found the joys of motherhood and 2 children! It is so much fun and yet so much work. Yesterday I changed about 5 diapers in 5 minutes (see picture of the culprits) Janey loves her baby brother and whenever he cries she thinks I need to hold him, and if he is not in the room with us she wanders around saying "baby baby" over and over until we go and get him. It is so adorable seeing them together and how much they love each other.
3. Janey learns a new word or phrase every day. Today she looked out the window while eating lunch and said "raining" I think that is a sign of what I will be hearing a lot of for the rest of the winter!
4. Russell is getting bigger and bigger everyday. It's sad that he is already almost out of the newborn phase, but he is still the cuddliest and sweetest baby ever. He rarely cries, he just grunts...He is an amazing baby!
5. I am putting some pictures on of when Russell was born...I know I'm a little slow but thats okay. And yes that is a pink binky in my little boys mouth...it was the only one we had that day so give me a break :)

Isn't being a mom so much fun (well except for that diaper thing)? And don't worry about the pink binky thing - Emily had tons of blue ones at first. . . until we lost them all and had to buy new ones. Can't wait to see more pictures!

I love the new look on your blog! It totally reminds me of your scrapbooking style! Cute pictures! It looks like I need to hurry and bring you the next size of clothes. I have no idea what ones I gave you, but I have lots more! I'll call you and we'll figure out a time this next week. Can't wait to see him again!
