Sort of like blah, blah, blah...
Sarah and I have been discussing blogging this week...and the fact that we don't do enough of it! So we are going to try to step it up and write more often. We love the blogs that update often and make you want to go back day after day...I keep thinking I don't have enough to write about, or I get too busy, but I will make a conscious effort to give anybody who's interested more to read.
That said, I have some videos to share. Willa & Peyton spent the weekend here last weekend while Sarah & James went up north to celebrate their 6th Anniversary! I can't believe it's been 6 years, but it has!!! Let's just say this house was transformed in a very short amount of time. Thursdays are cleaning days around here, and the kids came on Friday...by Saturday we were in full baby/toddler mode with a high chair, 2 cribs, swing, toys, sippee cups, baby bottles, snack traps, 2 sizes of diapers, clothes, blankets, pj's, diaper bags...and 2 smiling kids that warm your heart till you think it's going to boil over. By Sunday, the house was not recognizable and it has taken me until this Thursday to get it back to 'normal' if there is such a thing around here. Whew! What a busy week!!
It was so fun to watch Willa follow her Papa around; she was his shadow the whole weekend! I went outside to check on them and Papa had her washing her Barbie car with a bucket of soap and water...omg, if you could have seen the cute little pink pants I had on her and what had become of them! Surprisingly, I got it all out in the wash!! And her feet (yes, she was barefoot) they were black...let's just say she had numerous baths while she was here! And she was all smiles the whole time!
The night feedings for Peyton were not as bad as I thought they would be...how can they be when you look down at that little face - eyes trying so hard to stay shut, mouth open - just wanting to be fed and put back to bed! That was the 1:30 AM feedings...5:30 AM was a different story, he wanted to smile and coo and just spend some time being cute! And cute he was! We did some real Nana/Peyton bonding time during those night feedings, no sissy to contend with!
So, here are a few videos from the weekend...we were trying hard to capture some of the funny faces that Willa makes...she is a crack up!
This is after arrival on Friday afternoon...Willa made it real clear, she is the little mother here!
on to bath time and then a little Barnie...itsy bitsy spider, her favorite!!!
Willa is obsessed with the phone...talking away - let's just say she has the 'jeffrey' gift of gab!
Willa loved playing outdoors with the ball...she always made sure it went in the street, then would act so suprised :) She has Papa well trained!
a flower for Nana...or not...
Willa wants to 'hold' Peyton every chance she gets...here she tries to show him how to walk, which is just so cute! I think she's anxious for him to play with her :)
Sorry for the long post, I have a lot more if that isn't enough for you :) It was a great weekend, felt like a free bird on Monday though, and oh so quiet around here!!!
