Skills Son!


 Well Kaj is learning the "dark art"- as Sam would say- of making cookies. Though this particular day was actually loads of...not so fun.. moments, I was bounnd and determine to do the "fun mom" things I had planned. Did I do them? Yes. Did I enjoy them as much as I hoped? Ha! Well...

We made the classic, of course, chocolate chip cookies- though just a chocolate chip, we sisters know that this recipe when we start the family cookie business this is a gold mine recipe! Ha! I scooped the ingredients and Kaj poured them in the bowl, and watched with his nose pressed up to the machine to get the best seat in house as we mixed them, of course. And, I thought 'I remember making cookies with mom, and we loved to lick the bowl' so I handed him the mixer, and let him have at it, I turned to see his face covered in cookie dough. Love it!!


On a more serious note, moving on to the constructional genius side of Kaj. Yes, he spent time on this lovely block design that is one of the most complex and fascinating designs to date. He is calling it the "Kaj Scraper"

Very proud of his work :)

3 months

3 months and already in a big kid bed!
We had Josh's 3 month appointment yesterday, and he is doing great! The stats are 24 inches and 12lbs 6oz. Now that it has been officially been a few months I have gotten to know him, ha, and one of my favorite things about Josh at this stage is he loves everyone. He has the biggest smiles, and the happiest noises, he is trying so hard to laugh, but it comes out in the short little squeals, and he is already making Kaj and I laugh when we're around him. He really is such a delightful little baby! I am a big fan!

Father's Day Photo Shoot

For Father's day I am attempting to put together  a little homemade card- nothing special- but hope it will include a cute picture of the 2 sweetest boys
 I wanted to take them outside, but knew the chances of getting Kaj not running around like a crazy person and take a picture as well as act as a prop for Josh were slim to none

They went through waves of emotions
 Silly
 Helpful
 Thoughtful
 and not on speaking terms...HA
Still very fun and funny to get some pictures with these two clowns together!
