Fast Forward

Life with a toddler and a baby.
Makes me smile, laugh, and want to pull my hair out all at the exact same time. 

Each day is an adventure that is for sure. The past few weeks have just flown by and I'm sure the next 20 years will do the same. Sad. But for now we try to enjoy each and every moment with our sweet little blessings. 

So here's what has been going on in fast forward mode...

Emmett took the mouse to our computer awhile back and we couldn't find it anywhere.. for days. Until Nate tried to print something and found it jammed in the printer. Makes you just laugh. 

I'm pretty sure for the last entire month someone in our household has been sick. And now as I type this both babies have bad coughs and runny noses. I guess I should just prepare for sickie mc-sick babies for the next few months. Not fun. 

But aren't they so cute?! They sure love each other and are seriously looking more and more like each other everyday. 
Kamryn girl is now one happy baby. She is constantly smiling. (And mostly at Emmett).
She is now almost 6 months old. That's half a year. Where in the world has the time gone? What have I been doing? She now thinks she can sit up by herself. I'm not sure if I like this growing up so fast thing. 
And Emmett. Oh my goodness. Sometimes we wonder if he has Pediatric Bipolar Disorder. He is one crazy dude. 
Church is so hard these days and now I understand it when parents say they can't wait until Nursery. We may not make it until then. There was one Sunday where we barely made it through Sacrament and I told Nate, "We are leaving." I ended up taking the babies home so they could nap and be happier and feel better since they were both getting sick...again. The minute we walked through the door, Emmett tripped and fell and ended up getting this huge goose egg on his head. I watched it get bigger and bigger within seconds and I thought, "What if it explodes? Does that really happen?" But it didn't thank goodness and it went back down. He ended up getting a big bruise for awhile and I know it's because we left church early. 
Emmett is a character and getting anything done these days is at times a challenge to say the least. He is starting to climb on anything, open everything, destroy most things, etc, etc, etc. 
 I find him in lots of awkward positions and he usually doesn't mind it one bit. 
 And anything in a long cord form is considered a necklace which he has to put on. 
It is so fun watching our two babies interact more and more with one another.  There are so many things I am looking forward to but for now, I just need to enjoy where we are at. One moment at a time.
