Sunday Afternoon

Bella enjoying her lazy Sunday in the rocker

Daddy and his little man


Mommy and her sweet pea

Go Brody!!

Biggest hugs ever!!

Serious blackmail picture in his Sister's sequin shoes....Bella put these on Brody and then fussed until we made him stand up in them!! hahahaha

I had to take a picture! Sorry Brody.

Handsome little guy

Although we seem to go go go throughout the week, the best reward is spending lazy weekends with the family! The kids are cracking us up these days and they not only make each other laugh SO hard, they keep a constant grin on our faces that's for sure.

Brody is rolling rolling rolling and he is mesmerized by Isabella...and she knows it! She spins and jumps and hops through the air and he thinks it is the absolute funniest thing he has EVER seen. She is, of course, our girly girl and giving Matt nightmares of high school already! Everything we do these days has a tiny little voice instruction to it...We turn off the light...and Bella says,"Onnnnnn"....We open the door...and Bella says, "Cwose"...she walked by the TV yesterday and nonchalantly glanced at it and said, "Spudge Baaaa" (that's baby talk for Sponge Bob if you didn't know haha). She is signing so much and her sign for thank you looks like an Italian Guido gesture. She is trying to teach Brody to say thank you which is pretty comical. She is so sweet and twirls those little piggy tails constantly.

We LOVE them and can't get enough of them...but do they really have to grow up so fast!!!???? I need more time and I would like to make it stand still at their ages right now!

Love to you all!!!

Singing Rock-a-Bye to Bubba

We have really been wanting to take pictures of our new home but since I feel like we are STILL decorating and unpacking I at least walked around downtown of our new little town of Round Rock, TX and took some pictures so you can see a glimpse of where we now live! Round Rock is home to the headquarters of Dell and we have a lot of history too. It's funny because I feel like everything has a story in Texas...we live on A.W. Grimes who happens to be a man killed back in the war by another man named Sam Bass...another main drag of Round Rock. So, I guess even our street signs give a little history lesson...love the culture and American pride here in Texas though. The Southern feel is great and the hospitality and manners even at the grocery store are so refreshing. The hustle and bustle still happens like any other town but people just have a slower, less hurried way about them here.

The kids, as you see, are growing like beanstalks! Bella is speaking so wonderfully. She is a little parrot....attempting to repeat everything we say and doing everything we do! I love it because I know she is trying so hard to say words and phrases just right. We can point at pictures and ask her where the pig is, where the ball is, the frog, the shoes and she will point right at each of them and smile! I get this huge lump in my throat and become the proudest Mommy when she does it! Brody is rolling!! He is already on the move and I just can't believe it. I feel like we just brought him home from the hospital....time flies when you are having fun I guess. He laughs at us constantly and has the sweetest spirit. (I know he loves Mommy's voice the best because he giggles when I enter the room. Don't tell Matt hahaha)

We miss you and love you all. Hard knowing that it will be months before we see some of you but know we think of you every day!

Dramatic, movie star kisses from Bella...Slobbery kisses from Brody...and hugs from us! XOXO

It has been quite a busy week....a busy week of snapping shots of my two little munchkins! We've explored more of Austin, BBQd with some new friends including a new friend, Morgan, for Bella who signs with her, and we even rode the miniature train in Zilker Park. Much different experience from our days at Austin City Limits in Zilker Park in past years!

The kids are so busy these days I can't keep up and Miss Bella will be in therapy for all the shopping she's been doing with her baby doll :) haha

XOXO

Love you all!!
