Baylor's GF

My favorite girlfriend moved last week. Abbey and I have been GF/BF pretty much since birth. I'm handling it pretty well, but have to find new friends to collect leaves, eat popsicles, play cars, and chase with my school bus. I have high hopes our long distant relationship will work out. I hope we can make it through this rough challenge. Here are some pictures to remind Abbey what a fun time we had together.

Miss ya, Babe!

Love, Baylor

Look What I Can Do

My little munchkin is growing up. He's movin'-n-goovin' now. He can't crawl very far yet but is still able to get to where he wants to be. He does a lot of backwards crawling and booty scooting. He is pulling himself up onto everything and thinks it's hilarious. Once he is standing he is giggling the whole time. It won't be long before he takes off and gets into all kinds of mischief.

2 going on 7

Baylor is still only 2, but I'm convinced he thinks he's closer to 7. There have been multiple times at parks and other places when he tries to hangout with the big kids instead of kids his age. Today I went to the gym to workout, and I put the kiddos in the childcare area. After my workout I went to go get Chase and Baylor. They put the babies in one area, the toddlers in another, and the big kids in a separate area. I knew Baylor wouldn't be with the babies or toddlers, because that's not how he rolls, but I didn't expect to find him just chillin' at a table with a bunch of 7 year old kids playing the game LIFE. LIFE...What?!? How old does this kid think he is? I'm sure the 7 year old kids were wondering the same thing.

Not only does he think he is older than he really is. He is starting to act like one of those teenagers who think they are smarter than their parents. We've been having a lot of people we know move, so I've been explaining where everyone is moving to, and where everyone lives. I'll ask, "where does Nana live?" and he'll say, "Texas." Then I'll ask, "where does Grandma live?" and he'll say, "Idaho." I'll ask him, "where is Abbey moving?" and he'll say, "Wisconsin." But, when I ask him where he lives, he always answers, "home." I'll tell him, "yeah, but you also live in Ohio." He then looks at me like I'm crazy and say, "no, I live in a house". I can tell he is thinking something like; What is that woman talking about? I don't know what this Ohio place is, but I know I live in a house, and there's nothing she can say to make me believe I live in Ohio. He apparently doesn't believe me, and thinks he is smarter than me. I'm sure it won't be the last time he thinks this.

Family Pics

Our good neighbor and friend Leesa took some family pictures of us recently. She of course did a fabulous job. We on the other hand were not a very photogenic family. There were lots of double chins (my personal favorite), awkward faces, kicking feet, hands in mouths, and so on. Leesa still did a great job with what we had to offer. Thanks Leesa.
