So Marissa is facinated with trains. She loves to watch them drive by, especially "racing" them to see who wins as we drive past them on the freeway. One day, we decided Jeremy could drive to my parent's house with Tyler and Marissa and I rode the train. She had a blast! We rode on the upper level so we could see more. She didn't want to get off :)
When we got to my parent's house, she invented this GREAT game. She would toss us the ball, and then we had to hit the target....... remember - this was her invention!
DIRECT HIT!!!
Proof that they love each other
Tyler is typically a happy, easy-going kid. He's super mellow, he just entertains himself. He moves all around. He loves to stand, but still is pretty hesitant to walk on his own. He loves to stand up in his crib, and this is the sight I get to see when I go get him in the mornings!
HOWEVER.............
When he tries to climb out of his crib and succeeds, it's a totally different story. Now, the great mom that I am, I decide to take pictures instead of consoling him right away.... I know, I'm so mean!
It does make for some nice cuddling time afterwards though!!
Ok, I love to look at people's blogs. A friend from high school has a daughter a few days younger than Tyler. She had posted a bunch of pictures and I thought it was the funniest thing that her daughter loved the dishwasher. We don't use ours very often. (maybe a handful of times in the eight years we've lived in our house) Our friends have been coming over more often, so when we do that, we actually use our dishwasher!!! Tyler is just as facinated with dishwashers!!! He loved it. He tried to help me put things in there too.
Marissa was invited to her friend's birthday party. She was so excited, it's the first one she's been to. They had lunch, painted fingernails, decorated cupcakes, and "stuck a tail on a horse that didn't have one" :) She wanted to make Aubrey a mirror and buy her some earrings. She dressed herself, and did her own hair for the party. She had a blast!
We went and got haircuts this week too. It's Tyler's first haircut, and he did SO good. He sat so still! Just a trim, but it was so exciting for me since Marissa's first haircut wasn't until she was about two and a half!!!

Marissa got her hair cut too. She's so pretty!!!
