My 22 month old loves

Avocado! We all know this ha! He calls them ADO and if we are out of them I'm in trouble! 

He has one for breakfast everyday! He also loves sweet pepper he eats a whole pepper on his own! I can't complain at all about him and eating other than,  I can barely keep up sometimes. 

When he sees me pull out food to cook he wants it now! So I need to hide certain things and only show him once it's cooked! The best line from him. "Mama cook" ha! 



I still can't believe how the time is just flying by and he'll be 2 in 2 months!!! 

His vocabulary is expanding learning at least 1 new word a day! Today it was 3! Chocolate (chacchac) , mess, and fly. He loves planes so today while we were at the toy store he spotted this helicopter fan at the checkout and wouldn't let it go. He keeps saying Aaapee flyyyy (airplane fly)

I don't want to forget a thing! I've been so blessed to have spent some extra time home with him. Seeing him and all his firsts. It's the most precious gift I've ever had. I get so much joy watching him learn and grow. This little boy just melts my heart!

Weekend fun

This weekend we had my nieces birthday party at a playland. The kids were crazy ha! Running all over, the parents were exhausted haha! 


Afterwards we had a BBQ party at my brothers house. Baby k fell asleep on the way down at 830. I put him in the stroller, covered him up and he was parked in the backyard noise and all and slept the whole time we were there. I actually was able to have a conversation, eat and have some wine! 

Sunday the fun continued when we had a family lunch with my inlaws. We had a delicious meal. Baby k enjoyed all the food too, minus the wine. Ha!

Yum! 

 
Today was my sisters birthday! I stopped over this afternoon with a treat. Mmm! 



Hope you all had a great Monday! 

Basement play area for baby k

We finally re-did the floors in the basement to make it more cozy for a play area for baby k.

We lived here for 4 years and rarely used the basement. But with a kid. I'm so glad we have that extra space.

Here are some before and after pics.

New floors 

Baby k loves the extra space to run and play. Even better when I get laundry done while we play too ha!

Baby k will be starting daycare next week and our plan is to play in the basement every day after dinner before bedtime so we get to play together everyday!

Our prayers were answered!

My aunt had her liver transplant and she's doing well! A long recovery ahead but we are all so positive and so happy it all went smooth! 

Just a reminder that signing that donor card saves lives. Just 1 donor can save 8 lives. 

I'm overwhelmed with emotions, my aunt gets that second chance and gets her life back after so many years of suffering. we are so blessed. 

Thank you for your prayers!

Yummy cookies and new shoes!?

Ohhhh yes I'm on a diet some what but these cookies are low in sugar and whole wheat! Sooooo. ;)!


Baby k isn't a milk drinker but with a cookie, a couple sips was needed. 


This cute little guy is getting ready for fall, yes fall! The leaves are already falling here. The weather is still great so we aren't complaining. We bought some new shoes. We found some great sales! 

How cute! 
And a new cars school bag with wheels! Ha! Seriously cute!

Summer days

A friend and I met up yesterday for a playdate with the kids. We enjoyed a nice breakfast. The kids were well behaved until the end when little K had enough and was anxious to run around, he threw his plate of food to the ground. Blueberries and bread all scattered all over the floor ha! 

We then headed to a park so the kids can get filthy haha yes playing in sand. Sand was everywhere!!!! I'm soooo not a fan of sand playgrounds. Sand is for the beach! 


My friend put together this picture of us and the kids growing up. They will be 2 soon! 2!!!!

Later in the evening we had a BBQ dinner outside. Summer feels like its slipping away too quickly! 

Little K and Zoe are best friends. They are adorable playing together. Yesterday it was hide and seek I think ha!! 

Summer is ending soon and little K will be starting a new daycare very soon! More about this later! 

Happy Friday! 

Long weekend outdoor fun

(Late post!) We had a long weekend! We spent most our time outdoors. Backyard bbq's and walks in the park. 

Saturday night we had a small BBQ at our house. We had a lot of left over food that we ate throughout the rest of the weekend! I ate way too many sweets and back on track today! 

The kids had so much fun playing together Saturday.

It's already August and I know it will just fly by! This coming weekend we have a wedding and my birthday is coming up too! Wha! Another year older!

Lets slow down time! 
Eek we saw a little snake at the park!

Little ones first haircut at the salon

My mother inlaw is a hairdresser and little K had his first haircut! My little guy's hair grew in pretty slow! But it's been getting out of control these days so it was time for a haircut! 



When we first got him to sit he refused and just yelled NO NO when we touched his hair. We thought we wouldn't be able to cut his hair today! He was just not having it! 


But the second time around we had the help of the iPad and blueberries ha! He ate and pretended to feed the bunny his blueberries and that kept him occupied! 

Mil had to work fast! 

I'm sooo happy he sat through it!! 

He looks sooo cute with his new haircut!!! 

Before and after 

Yay!!!!

My birthday weekend

Ahhh my birthday. Another year older. I'm not thrilled about it ha! 

The weekend started off with a friends wedding. I wore my new black dress with my new sparkly shoes but the shoes hurt my scrape on my ankle from last weeks fall so I ended up wearing my favorite heels at the end of the night. 

  
Then Saturday night we stayed in to have our own little family birthday dinner. We ordered Italian mmmm! 

Little K loved it.


I share my birthday with my mom. So on our birthday we got together for a bday breakfast. 

We had a great time!
