Klompen Classic 2015

Brook and I did the Klompen Classic again this year, and actually were able to run it :).  Our time was so much better than we had planned, since having two kids we both were not in the best shape as we once were.  I am so proud of us!

Beau decided to come watch mommy run and had fun playing in the mean time :)

Videos of the Boys

Beau and Baine are definitely becoming best buds, and I love to see their relationship grow!  Beau is so conscious of Baine and his needs, and Baine loves to play with Beau.  Here are some videos of the boys playing/laughing :)

Baine's laugh is so adorable!  He is honestly THE happiest baby I have ever seen!!

Ornery Baby

Even though Baine is the "baby" of the family, for now, he is starting to act like he has middle-child syndrome----he loves attention!

His newest thing, sticking his tongue out at you!  What a little pistol :)

Sleepy Baby

The other day when Joe went to pick up Beau for pre-school at Mary's, he saw Baine swinging outside with all of the kids.  The closer he got, he realized little Baine-Joe was a little sleepy.  He ended up falling asleep in the swing and took his morning nap there :)

May Day

I was definitely spoiled on May Day this year.  First, Bond surprised me at school by delivering a tulip in a jar for my May basket...it was the cutest thing ever :).  Then when I came home from work, Joe had a May "basket", with a few of my favorite things, on the table for me.  I guess I really need to get it together with being more organized next year and return the gift of May baskets!

Baines "First" Word

Baine had three big "firsts" the other night!

1.  Starting to crawl
2.  Sitting up straight all by himself with NO support
3.  Said "Mama!"

Yes, I am aware that he probably didn't realize he said mama, but he did say it clear as day and kept saying it all night!  And he has said it frequently since when he looks my direction.  So it is going down in the books that he said "mama" as his first word :)

Beau's Quotables: Part III

Mommy: "Beau who is your best friend?"

Beau: "Banx, Banx is my only best friend."

Mommy and daddy: "Well Beau you can have more than one best friend if you want."

Beau: "I don't want more than one best friend!  I just want Banx as my only best friend!"

---sweetest conversation ever! :)

Beau: "Ahhh mommy!  Baine pooped and it's making my room smell really bad."

Mommy: "Well go change him then Beau." (joking obviously). 

Beau: "That's a big kids job.  And I'm no big kid yet."

Beau: "Mommy, Uncle Austin picked me up today from school!"

Mommy: "He did?!  Did you have fun?"

Beau: "yeah, except maybe next time Uncle Austin will take me to lunch"

hahahahaha
