Just a little journal entry so to say . . . My life is so blessed as I have my best friend as my husband. We spend a lot of time laughing. Especially lately. Having our newest addition to our family has brought us all closer together. We have a tradition of riding our bikes on the greenbelt every Saturday. Today Jara and Rhett rode together. They enjoyed going "off road" and getting stuck in a sand bar. Jara loves the bike rides and is always telling dad, "go fast" - "dirt road" - "c'mon Mom" or mimicking a man on his cell phone as they ride by, "uh huh oh, O-K by!" Rhett didn't know what she was talking about at first! Boy is she an observant little stinker! Jara is attemping potty training again - this time instead of Poo stars to work for, she earns potty crackers. So far she is motivated - sort-of. Often times I have to PUT her on the potty. Jara is into "The Little Mermaid". She loves to sing with her - which is very interresting. I am afraid to say she has picked up on how to sing from her dad. Of all the times I have sung to her or sing around her, she chooses to sing like her dad. I have some work to do later on!!
Little Rhett has acquired a nickname. "Rock" is now 14.3 pounds!! He has almost doubled his weight! There's no trouble eating for sure! He loves to smile, coos and laughs with ease. He has this amazing 1/2 smile that cracks me up. I think he uses it after he knows his pants are full and will send the rest up his back so he can get another bath. He loves it!! I didn't know there could be such a talent but Rock can do it almost on command.
He's getting good at flirting allready - So proud he is my handsome son!!! Jara's smile and laugh gets us all going every time. I know Jara and Dallin are meant to be bro and sis - just today at dinner Jara was singing some song she made up and Lil' Dallin was laughing the cutest chuckle. It was great. We LOVE Christmastime. We can't wait for all the MAGIC we will have in our home with the kids. Afterall, we are just big kids ourselves!
