Our days are full. Full of babies growing up! Each day is an emotional roller-coaster. One minute everyone is so happy and excited and the next minute someone is screaming very loudly. Just a typical day around here. Although we are exhausted by the end of the day, we wouldn't have it any other way.
Here is one example of a typical day. Bath-time. The babies love bath-time and I love that they can both bath at the same time these days. Well the other day as they are playing and having so much fun, Nate comes in to help and accidentally knocks down the shower curtain rod. Nobody was hurt but it made a pretty loud noise and both babies lost it. I mean they were literally screaming at the top of their lungs. In a small echoing bathroom it was quite the acoustic show. Nate and I couldn't even hear ourselves talk. We just looked at each other and laughed because what else were we to do? But since this experience Kay Kay has been traumatized and the moment we set her down in the bath she proceeds to scream. Let's just hope this is a phase.
Then there's a typical day with Emmett. Oh little Emmett man. You are stinking cute. Good thing too because you sure have your moods. Oh boy!
He loves his little Elmo. So soft and cuddly. I'll find him walking around the house with his little friend.
But most times I find him getting into EVERYTHING! He climbs on anything he can reach. I can't turn my back for a second. We are just waiting for the moment until he breaks a bone. I wish I had pictures of him climbing on top of things but I don't want him to get the idea that it's okay to do that.
Apparently he enjoys sitting up by the computer. I had run upstairs really fast to take a shower and this is what I find when I come down. (This was after he had already climbed on top of the desk).
And he thinks he is a big boy and is very possessive of his snacks. He wouldn't let me take a bite.
He sure helps us to remember to enjoy life. He loves to play and he plays hard.
So hard in fact that he falls asleep while eating and there are multiple times where I have to hold his head up.
And then there is a typical day with Kamryn. She is mostly happy which really helps with Emmett's moods at times. I love walking into her room because this is what I see...
But then there are a few moments where she is so mad at me and lets me know it. And you can tell by this picture she is starting to become a climber also. The gates are officially up on the stairs and her mattress is officially lowered.
She is crawling and standing up on things all over the place.
She's kind of a little monster.
Her hair is crazy and I don't know what to do with it most days. Plus her brother likes to attack it.
Most of my time is watching these two monkeys play together.
I have to constantly be on my guard because Emmett likes to attack when I'm not looking
I don't know what it is about laying on her but he loves it and she doesn't help the cause because she laughs and giggles when he does it.
We love our typical days. They are hard but they are rewarding that's for sure.
