Love these boys




Some videos of the boys.
Logan is attempting to howl like a wolf. I wasn't talking loud so you can't really hear my commentary, so to summarize, it's just a cute video of Logan trying to howl.


This is of Brenden imitating "Five Joeys jumping on the bed" (The Wiggle's rendition of Five Monkeys)
It just cracked me up every time they said 'One fell off and bumped his head' Brenden would say "OW!" and grab his head.

Visit to WV

My brother Tom came to Princeton, WV (the town we grew up in) for his 20yr high school reunion. He lives in Denver Colorado so I seized the opportunity to visit him while he was in a reasonable driving distance. Of course traveling with 2 kids ages 2 and under is always an adventure, but we did manage to get a few fun moments in between all of the chaos!

Hanging out in Geema's room playing with the Thomas table

Brenden had a sinus infection he was getting over and it made his eye water. He rubbed it so much he made it bleed :(  Luckily he's doing much better now.

Who needs a high chair. The tray can be both the seat and the tray!

We went to Tom's friend Wyatt's house for dinner one night. He had a little bounce house set up outside and Logan LOVED it! My little tackler!

Shhhhh.. don't tell him, but I'm pretty sure he's going to be getting one for his birthday next month!

Its an expensive gift for a 1-yr old, but LOOK how happy he is!

And if he shares it with big brother Brenden, then its double the fun!



A group shot of the whole family. Geema (that's what Brenden has decided we should say instead of Grandma) bought the boys matching shirts to wear. Needless to say Wyatt and his wife had no idea which kid has what name, we barely kept it straight!

From left to right -- Me, Logan, Will, Tom, Noah, Jen, Brenden, Mom (Geema)

Videos of the kids

I don't take enough video footage of the kids! I'm not crazy about my camcorder, and I never have my point-n-shoot camera, that has 3 minute video capability, charged. I tried to take some random videos of the boys the other night.

Here is one of Logan taking a few steps (yes that is a diaper on the floor, I was getting ready to change him)


Here is one of Brenden howling life a wolf. His "GeeMa" taught him how to do this at Great Wolf Lodge. There were images of wolves in the carpet and on the light fixtures so they went on a nature walk down the hallway and learned how to make wolf sounds. His little face just cracks me up




And finally here is one of Logan saying 'Thank you' and 'uh oh!'  I love how he's learning to use words. He also says mama, dada, no no, hello, yah!, tickle tickle. He's picking up on words faster than Brenden did, I guess having a chatty big brother is helping him learn.
