Flying Fun

I got to go with Lila's class to the park this morning for some kite flying.  It was a good windy day for kites.  The kids had a great time...

...and they had a picnic lunch, which is a big deal if you are 4.

My favorite part was getting to listen to their conversations.  The things they talk about and think are important are so innocent and cute at this age.  Here is how the lunch conversation between Lila and Jayden went.

Lila: (leaning over to whisper to Jayden as if she has a big secret)  I have a Sunny D in my lunch.

Then they both look in Lila's bag

Jayden:  Where did you get that?

Lila :  HEB...does your brother like fruit snacks? (random)

Jayden:  Hey look, I have lots of little sandwiches and gold fish

Lila:  I wish my Mom would buy gold fish

Growin' Girls

The baby girls turned 2 months old this past week.  It really is amazing how much babies grow and develop in such a short amount of time.   We love them so much, and are having a lot fun with them.  They are becoming more and more interactive and are starting to develop distinctive personalities.  Both girls are good sleepers and get up one time during the night, usually around 4:30 am.  We are going through about 12 bottles and 14 diapers a day

They are starting to track moving objects and people with their eyes.

and they are starting to notice each other.  Here they are talking and smiling at each other

Audrey weighs 9 lbs 12 oz and is 21.5 inches long.

We love to kiss those big cheeks.  She is a Daddy's girl.  She smiles and coos at him constantly(and mostly just for him) and seems to really notice Pete, our dog.  Audrey also seems to like music.  If she is fussy, music really catches her attention and calms her down.  She is a very calm baby; she has a very soft little voice and keeps her little arms and hands close to her body most of the time.  

Landry is 10 lbs 2 oz, and is 22 inches long

She is a go-gettter.  She is really "talking" and cooing, and has a very expressive little face and eyes.  She likes to sit up and look around, and be part of the action, and she is so strong.  She is a good, easy baby, but seems to have more of a quick temper.  It's like she doesn't really just get upset...she gets MAD.  She sleeps with her arms straight up in the air.
