The Boys

These kids are so great and so hard all at the same time. Brody had been such a blast lately. His vocabulary has increased dramatically and he now talks to us in full sentences. He of course gets things a little mixed up and backwards at times but it's super cute. He also has been trying to push the boundaries quite a bit lately but is pretty easily redirected with counting to three or mentioning time out. He is crazy and adventurous,

Even going off the diving board at the pool. And no, he can't swim so Dave dives in to grab him. This hasn't stopped or detoured him one time. I have to tell myself all the time that this just is who Brody is and we not only have to watch him like a hawk but we have to let him learn his limits and just pray he stays safe. 

Potty training is still happening. Brody is pretty much lee trained but pooping on the potty is hit or miss. For awhile he insisted that he stand to poop and would poop right there on the floor in front of the potty. Now, he usually poops in his "nighttime underwear" but if he wants candy he occasionally will sit in the potty and poop. It's a process, and we are trying to stay patient. 

Jett, Shewwww buddy he is a bit challenging at time!  For started you don't nap during the day so by the evening when we get home from work you are cranky. You don't like to play on the floor by yourself much at all. You want to either be held and bounced or for someone to make silly faces at you so you laugh all day. That being said I do feel like you are getting a little better.    You eat a ton and sometimes it's hard but of Sara can get you to take your typical 7-9 oz at 2 then you are a much happier baby in the evening. Your laugh is ADORABLE and you have learned how to blow raspberries and soak your entire shirt with slobber. My weekend away was good for your fussiness was stressing me out but now that I've had a break I feel we have grown closer. You smile at me all the time and you always enjoy our snuggle time. I hope you get less needy at my workouts and you stop crying while in the car, but one step at a time right.

Love both you boys so much!!!
