"Baby It's Cold Outside"

We sure are liking this cold weather!!

PuMpKiNs!!

A few weeks ago we discovered this cute little family farm by the house that we're building. So today we decided to go and get some pumpkins! It is such a cute place! They had goats for the kids to pet, tractor rides, and you could take a cart to go pick your own pumpkins! Ko was so excited to pick his pumkpin out! He helped pick out mom's and Landon's pumpkins too! It took him like 10 minutes to finally pick his pumkin...he actually picked out some pretty nice ones! And he chose about 5 different pumpkins for Landon. He'd put it in the cart and about 2 seconds later he decided that he found a better one. It was too cute!

He was so excited to get on all the tractors! It took a lot of persuading to finally get him off!

Landon loved hangin' out in the sling! He gets the biggest grins when he watches his big brother! We can't wait until both of these little munchkins are running around picking out pumpkins together!!

So It's Been Awhile...

I don't even know where these last couple of months have gone! Things have been a little crazy around here and I really haven't even had time to get on my computer! So here's a summary of what we have been up to....

Landon just turned 4 months old!!! I can't believe how fast the last few months has gone by! He's definately not a newborn anymore, and it makes me a little sad :(! He is a super happy baby pretty much all the time and we just can't seem to get enough of him! He is smiling, giggling, rolling over, and discovering new things every day! He officially weighs 15.5 pounds and is 25.5 inches long! He's our little chubba bug! He loves to sit in his bumbo, eat rice cereal, and one of his favorite times of the day is when his daddy gets home :)! He gets a huge grin from ear to ear when he hears his dad's voice!

Our little Kohen has grown up so much since we brought his little "brudder" home! His vocabulary went from about 100 words to saying just about everything in the last 2 months! He comes up with some pretty funny stuff sometimes! He'll open up the fridge and stand there with his hands on his hips and say "hmm...". When Landon starts crying he says "Oh Landon, please stop crying baby brudder!". And of course now that I am trying to think of all the funny things he says, I can't come up with anything :)! But he can come up with some pretty funny stuff! He is obsessed with helmets, or as he would say, "pelmet", both of his grandpa's, and of course his baby brudder!

So that's what's going on with us. I'll get a lot better at doing more posts once the weather starts to get cooler :)

This Summer...

Well it sure has been a busy couple of months! Our summer has been full of camping trips, boating trips and plenty of swimming outings!

Our little Landon is growing like a weed! He is officially two months old today! He's been such a joy and we love him to pieces!! He loves to eat...he is our little chubbers! I can't wait to see what he weighs next week! He also still loves to sleet a lot! In fact, he's been sleeping through the night for about 2 weeks now! So exciting!! He usually goes down at about 11:00 or 11:30 and doesn't wake up until about 6:30! He is such a talker! He loves to talk to us and loves it even more when we talk back to him! He smiles like crazy and I just love every minute of it!

Kohen is my little buddy! He is such a good helper! He absolutely adores his little brother and he always wants Landon to be happy! He's always trying to love him and give him his binki when Landon's upset. It's so cute! He's gotten a lot better at not smothering him so much, but we still have to tell him to stop laying on top of him and to stop poking him in the eye! He's been without a binki for about 2 1/2 months now and he acted like such a good boy when we got rid of it! We've had such a great summer! Ko loves to go swimming and we try to go at least 2 or 3 times a week!

Here are just some random pics of all the fun stuff we have done over the summer...

This little guy slept till 9:00 am!!

And this little guy slept through the night for the 6th night in a row!!!

I was able to have some alone time with Landon, shower and eat breakfast all before Kohen woke up this morning! I knew I had to document this because it will probably NEVER happen again! I was in HEAVEN!!!

Our Newest Little Guy

My wonderful sister-in-law took some pictures of Landon a few weeks ago. A lot of them turned out really cute, but we had kind of a hard time taking them...apparently he doesn't like to be naked! He cried most of the time and peed and pooped on Dustin (twice!). So a lot of them are of him crying or on the verge of crying. We tried to take some of with Ko, but we were at thier house and all he wanted to do was play with his cousin and all of his cousin's cool toys!

Life with two is definately different than life with one...but so far it's been great! I was so worried that I wasn't going to be able to give Ko or Landon the attention that they need. I was worried that Ko was going to hate me or that he was going to totally act out when we brought Landon home. But he's actually been really great! He's OBSESSED with his little brother...seriously obsessed! He loves to give Landon hugs and kisses all the time, and I usually only have to yell at him one or two times a day to leave his brother alone :)! He is such a good little helper and usually does anything I ask him to to help out with Landon. Landon so far has been a pretty good baby. He has some belly issues, so he usually cries pretty loud for a few minutes before he poops, but other than that he has been great! I'll be honest...at first I was really nervous to be left home alone with these two! The first day Dustin had to go back to work, I begged him not to!! But I have really loved being home with these two boys! I really never knew that I could love someone as much as I love my little Ko Man, but I am finding myself falling more and more in love with Landon and also Kohen every day! My guys are the loves of my life and I couldn't ask for anything more!

All You Need is LOVE

Happy Anniversary to my wonderful hubby Dustin! Thank you for all the happiness that you bring to my life. Thank you for giving me two handsome little boys! Thank you for helping me realize the important things in life. Thank you for supporting me in everything I do. Thank you for being the most amazing father to our children! I know we have our trials, but I just want you to know that I love you more each day! We have been through a lot together over the years and I can't wait to share many more memories together with you!
