Blogging again!

I'm back!!! It's been way to long since I have blogged. Well I'm repenting and I'm going to start a new. Where should I start. The kids are getting bigger and funnier by each passing moment. Liam is 16 months and he is really starting to talk. I love it! So does Kai, he is alway trying to get Liam to say new words. Kai is so nurturing towards his little brother, I love it. Don't get me wrong, he still makes him cry (he smoothers him w/ love). Kai is a very passionate 3 yr old. He love dinosaurs, animals, insects and dirty jobs. He is a big help around the house, his new thing is he like to clean his room.....yes you heard me right, he likes to clean his room.

I have started working again. I work 4 hrs a day and I love getting out of the house. It's like a paid vacation...ha ha. I think the kids and Daddy are enjoying the alone time together too.

I'm liking this whole blogging thing again. This should be fun. :)

Liam - Almost 5 months

1. Liam is really starting to be fun. He starting to show off his personality. He loves to cuddle w/ me on the floor and giggle.
2. He really wants to stand up and see things. Tomorrow I'm going to go and buy him an exersaucer.
3. He is taking better naps during the day...the night not so much. He still wake up 2-4 times a night.
4. I need to start pulling out the 6-9 month clothes for him. He is getting really big. He weight 16.5 at his 4 mo doctors visit. (He is big, but Kai was bigger at 4mos. -- 17.3).

Liam (will be 4 months next week)

1. Is 15 pounds.
2. Grabbed his first toy today and broke it.
3. Loves to giggle.
4. Has rolled over once.
5. Not sleeping through the night yet....
6. Is a drooler
7. Is very good at his baby talk (especially at 6am)

Funny things Kai says to me....(btw he is 2 1/2 now).

1. Crazy Mama...get me some chocolate milk!
2. Aaron asked Kai, do you want insurance? Kai says, "for the doctors" (how many 2yr olds know that insurance is for the doctors).
3. I put a blanket on Kai in the middle of the night so he wouldn't get cold...and he says "MATER". (It's on Cars, you have to see it!)

Liam R. Simon is Here!

Liam R. Simon was born September 14, 2008 at 4:51 Am. I thought he would never come, however he finally did. He was 22 inches long and weight 8.6 pounds. It was a great delivery, Aaron and I were shocked at how fast it went. Much different from our first born. Liam has tons of black hair and he is a good baby. Kai loves Liam tremendously! I was really worried about Kai and how he would handle this new person in our family. Here are some picture to look at. Enjoy!

Summer Time

This summer has been so much fun. We bought a membership to the Zoo and we have gone almost every Saturday. Everyone in our family absolutley loves going there...especially Kai. Kai turned 2 in June and you would not believe how much he is talking. This kid is amazing. I'm finally on maternity leave from work. I am so glad. I am just so tired during this pregnancy, I need a break. I think we have decided on a name for the new baby. (It's always subject to change...until it's on the birth certificate). Liam Patrick Simon. Yes, like the actor. Don't ask me where it came from, I just like to pull these things out of a hat.

I could go on and on about Kai and how much he is growing and developing but I'm sure that would bore you. So here are some pictures from this summer.

Feeding the ducks at Liberty Park.

Swimming at Nanna Marilyn's house on the 24th.

Day Care and all of his friends.

Our favorite place in the whole world...the Zoo.

Kai's first Ice Cream Cone. Life is good. :-)

Kai is 2

I use to be afraid of 2 yr olds. Now they are they are my most favorite thing in the world. Kai turns two on June 18th. We are having so much fun w/ him. He is talking a ton. We go to the Zoo every Saturday and we ALL love it. I love that we can go and do thing w/ Kai now and we have so much fun. We just got his pictures done for his 2nd birthday. Enjoy!
