What a great summer with these wonderful babies. I cant believe its already October. Time truly does fly. This summer we spent a lot of time swimming at Sequoia and Bitzy's pool. Mom took us to the playground at least 4 times a week and we had a great big birthday party. Kade learned to use the IPAD and LLLLOOOVVVEESSS music videos. His two favorite songs are Wagon Wheel by Darius Rucker and All I Want To Do by Sugarland. He also likes Justin Timberlake's Suit and Tie and Anna Kendrick's Cups. Maggie loves her Princess Dresses and her Blankies. She also loves to tackle her brothers. Larkin Loves Little Einsteins, Flooding the house and counting to 20. All three pretty much know the alphabet and can tell you what letter it is if you point to one and ask them what it is. Kade loves to jump off the bed and just about anything else he can climb on. Maggie is an escape artist and can get out of locked rooms without a problem. Larkin loves it when Mama or Daddy "Get You" and loves to wrestle. Maggie and Larkin are in their toddler beds and Kade could be if he just wanted to get out of the crib but he seems to be content just hanging out till someone comes to get him. Usually someone is up by 5:30 (And by someone I mean Larkin... However, its been Maggie a few time of late) They love to eat black beans and rice, pancakes, grilled cheese, pb&j, cupcakes, "beans" (Which we call jelly beans, skittles, m&m's, smarties and pretty much any other small candy), Hot dogs, scrambled eggs (Kade's Favorite) strawberries, watermelon, raspberries, grapes, cantaloupe, honeydew, crackers, chips, cheese, mac and cheese, noodles, apple juice, orange juice, chocolate milk, and pretty much anything any normal child likes. Kade is the pickiest eater but he's not bad or fussy if he doesn't get what he wants to eat. So far Maggie seems to have the most "tude". She doesn't take anything from anyone. If you combine that with her quickness and balance and I think she and her mama may in fact be twins born 32yrs apart. Larkin is the hugger. He loves to run up and hug a leg or anything on us he can get a hold of. He also loves for us to read books to him before bed time and for "dada lay down" before he will go to sleep. Basically I will lay with my head on his mattress (b/c that the only thing that can fit on it) and he proceeds to kick, jab, stomp, pull, push, tug, scratch, bite anything on me that he can as he fumbles around in bed to find the perfect position to fall asleep in. Kade too likes books but he gets really excited about cars, trucks, tractors and motorcycles. Basically anything that has an engine and moves. If a neighbor is mowing their grass and he hears it he wants you to take him outside so he can watch. Maggie is all girl. She loves mama's makeup, jewelry and dresses. If she had her way she would walk around all day with makeup on wearing a princess dress with her heals. She loves Cinderella, tinker bell and princess Sofia. She also loves her brothers. This is evident by how many times the tackles them while attempting a bear hug.
This has truly been a wonderful summer. Every day they learn something new and its an honor to be their parents. Katie and I just laugh and laugh at all the funny things they do on a daily basis. We are excited about the fall, have our Halloween outfits picked out and are already starting our Christmas shopping. Everyday we feel so lucky to be the parents of three wonderful little giggle boxes.
