My sister in law put this article on Facebook and thank goodness I saw it because it is one of those days. Tomorrow is another day!

Charli month 9

Baby girl.... Where to begin...I took you to your 9 month check up and you weigh 17 lbs. 8 oz. (25 %) height 29 1/2 inches (97%) head 45 cm(78 %). So basically you are tall and skinny. Your hair is slowly coming in and it is brown. You have blue/ gray eyes. Your toenails are usually painted pink or red. You have 2 teeth on the bottom and working on your upper two front teeth. Probably the most comments we get about you are your eyes and how big and beautiful they are and how you take everything in. The second comment we get is how happy you are. You love new places and seeing new things. We decided you like to be the life of the party. If everyone is quiet you scream really and I mean really Loud and then laugh. Everyone says you are going to be a singer with the set of lungs that you have. I think you are trying to say mama and ball. Go figure your brother loves balls and so do you. You clap your hands and love rising songs. We love to read books, bounce in your bouncer and play trucks with your brother. You eat everything! There is nothing that you will turn down. You still won't crawl but I think you might walk first because you always want to stand. You my girl have been so much fun. I count my blessings every day that you are in my life. Thanks for all the excitement. Love you

Austin 2 year

Austin- you are now 2 years old. These last 2 years have been pretty amazing. I get to spend every day with you and your sister. We have become best of friends. You are my snuggler. I can get a kiss or a hug from you anytime of the days. I love at night when we snuggle and watch movies or read books. That is our time without your sister. You are learning to count... But really you just love the number 2 and you want me to do the rest. You are learning colors, animal sounds and working on your speech. You have added a few words to your vocabulary so we are getting there. You are my silent one kinda like your dad and grandpa Kinsey. You are a thinker. You think before you talk or do something new.. You have to process it all before you get to excited. You are so funny. I wish I would write things down that you do or say because you are always keeping us laughing. You little man are an amazing athlete.. Anything with a ball excites you and you are awesome! You love tractors and going to help dad or grandpa Wilde in the fields. Every sat or sun you take dad outside and make him pull his tool box off the shelf and you two will work on the jeep. Lately my car I have been driving is the jeep because that is the only car you will not throw a fit in. You love it. You and dad like to read jeep magazines together and you make me leave the room so you can have not time. Your a rockstar when it comes to the iPad. You have been teaching your grandma to use it. Your pretty amazing to watch run it. Little man thank you for being my best friend and for all the love you give and show me and our family. We love you .. Happy 2 years buddy!

Austin's second birthday

We celebrated Austin's 2nd birthday on sunday( where did the last 2 years go) the day before his real birthday so his cousins, aunts and uncles, grandparents and his dad could celebrate with him. In the morning we did presents with our little family. He got a huge train table ( he plays all day long) sandbox, some books and puzzles. We ate breakfast and then started to get the yard ready for the party. We had a ball theme birthday party. We had a concessions stand that had drinks, popcorn, cotton candy, chips, hot dogs and hamburgers. We played a couple games, opened presents and did cake and ice cream. Austin was pretty funny this year about blowing out the candles. (A week before his party we decided to teach him how to blow out the candles.) while we were singing to him he just watched the candles flicker when we were done singing he was in no hurry to blow them out he stopped took a drink and started to softly blow ... Instead of the candle he was blowing the cake... Well that was to much for him so he stopped and took another drink and repeated the process, by the third time everyone was laughing and he got so embarrassed that he was done and had his cousins all help him. He is to dang cute! What a fun day... Thanks to everyone who came and celebrated his day!

Summer fun

This summer has been so fun and so busy. We have had a lot of swim days, trips to the park, boating, zoo day, sandboxes, yard work, movie nights, horseback riding and play dates.

Austin months 22 & 23

Hi little man. You are 1 month from your 2nd birthday. I have no idea where the last 2 years have gone. You are so fun right now! You LOVE trains, trucks, balls, otter pops, jeeps, Thomas the train, caillou, and playing outside. You wake up every morning and the first thing you want is Charli. You two are best friends. You would do anything for her. My favorite thing that you guys do is when we are driving somewhere and you guys will just start laughing wars and laugh at each other. You my buddy... Are seriously amazing with any kind of ball. Dad showed you how to drop kick a soccer ball and you got it on the 2nd try and seriously amazing at it. I love you little man. Your my best friend. Love you!

Charli month 7&8

Baby girl you have gotten so big these last few weeks. You are 8 months old today. You seriously have the cutest laugh. When you get so excited you flap your arms, wiggle your toes, and get such big eyes. You are finally sitting up on your own... You have been able to do it for months but you would fight us and make your body completely stiff and you just want to stand or lay down. We finally are over that speed bump. You are starting to love food. Rice crispies, grapes, otter pops, and squash are your favorite. You have figured out your voice and you love it. You babble so loud that it makes you laugh. You are definitely a mamas girl. You are starting to notice when I leave the room and you want to go with. My favorite time of the day with you is in the morning.... You wake ups little bit before your brother so we snuggle in my bed and have our morning talk. You sleep in your own bedroom now and you love it. You dont have to hear your dad snore... I might be a little jealous. You love to go to the park and play in the sand. You still don't have any teeth but you have been teething for over a month... The dang these just love to bug you... Sorry baby girl. Your hair is starting to come in and when it's wet it goes curly... Love it! You are the longest skinniest baby girl. When you stand next to your brother you hit the bottom of his chin. You love your toes painted... You now know they are there and love to play with them. We finally got your stomach issues figured out and it has made you a happy baby... Which means a happy mom and dad.love you baby girl.... I can't imagine life without you!

Fathers day

This year we celebrates fathers two different weekends. The first fathers day we had two different parties. The first party we went to was at the wildes. Cindy's father and grandpa came up to. We ate dinner and just hung out with the family. We did get a 5 generation photo with Charli and her grandparents. We did one with Austin when he was a baby. They are so lucky to have so many grandparents who love them! The second party was at my house for my family's fathers day and my dads 50 th birthday party. We had BBQ and played minute to win it. It was so much fun! I tried to upload the videos because they are hilarious but blogger wouldn't work. I'm so grateful for all the father figures in our life! Happy 50yh dad!
