8 months

 
 
 
 
 
  
 8 months-WOW
2 teeth now, lots of snotty noses and red eyes due to this.
Pooping machine. It's an off day, if we don't have a blow out onesie, or two. 
Lots of chatter, non stop da da's, shrieking, and jabber.
Does the motions for So big, waving, shaking, tapping, and signs more.
Pivots around like the second hand on a clock.
Loves loves loves to be in her walker, exploring and chasing her sister around.
Sleep, meh that's hit or miss. This girl lately wants to move and groove.
Eats-broadening her palate to avocado, green beans, peas, carrots, kiwi, pears, in addition to her squashes, sweet potatoes, apple sauce, bananas 
And this easy going babe is definitely developing quite the personality. Still so happy, but becoming so much more animated and expressive. 
Love her to pieces.

Pt 3000

So after our special day, we headed over to the smiths for a very special evening. Remember me referencing our families as crazy, well this may be one of reasons we are so. 
 
 Leaf blower, paint roller handle, and a jumbo pack of tp.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
These smiles of 100% pure joy on our kids faces is so rewarding, and fulfilling. What a random, fun, and yes cray cray idea!! The kids loved it, and we loved watching kids big, and small enjoy. I'm sure this evening contributed to Everlee's best day ever;):) Thanks for making it so special Poppa k!!


Mommy, daddy and Everlee day

When you have kiddos that have been sick for a couple weeks, and your oldest says"why does Eden get all the attention?", you immediately plan a date with your eldest, and let her do all of the planning. 
 
Playing peek a boo with the red hatters:)
 
 And because they thought Evs was so polite and adorable, they gave her a cupcake:-P
 She had to take a pic of it,but not before sampling a bit of the red hat;)
 
I have said it before, and I'll say it again. There is a certain walk Evs gets when entering toys r us. It's a walk that I compare to my grandma Colleen's when she enters a casino. It is a walk that is focused, and  full of excitement and purpose. This girl is on a mission, and her mission is to look over every item, some numerous times, and to have fun. 
 
 
Everlee got gift card from grandma coco, and she was to also include a gift for Eden in her purchases. She was happy to do so, and chose a cell phone for Eden, and princess legos for herself.
Making a wish  
 
  
After toys r us, a trip to the mall to visit the Disney store was on the agenda. Well, there is no longer a Disney store at the mall. I don't know if it's been gone a year, five years, or 10 years. These are things you don't really pay attention to when you don't have kiddos, then when you do have them, you have no clue when things change :-O  Evs was bummed(not to mention no napping, so irritable) so instead of taking her to the germ infested play center, we went to Claire's and purchased splashlings for triple the price they usually are. Oh well, whatever avoids a major meltdown. 
 
Funny little story about this hat Evs is wearing. I made her put it on before leaving the mall, and I got a "mom, you are sooo ruuuuuude," comment. No nap=100% attitude.
 
Thank you gma coco and Poppa Rudy for having Evs overnight Friday, so we could catch up on some sleep. You know it's been a rough couple of  weeks, when mom and dad are both in bed at 8:30pm. Also thanks for watching Eden Saturday, so we could have an afternoon with Everlee. When putting her to bed that night, she was so tender, sweet, and loving. She said it was the best day ever, and to hear her say that, all was right in our sleep deprived world;)
