Pin It Now!
I decided to mix things up a bit for this month and capture things in a slightly different format: 

Currently
Jonah's version (@26 months): 
Watching: Lorax, Buzz and Woody, Dora. He also kind of likes Finding Nemo but I had no idea that it was sort of scary.

Loving: Building things.  Stacking blocks, legos, starting to get into imaginative play - it is really cute.  Chooses a different stuffy almost every morning to bring downstairs to come and have breakfast with us.  

Going: "Dee-ice" (downstairs) - always wants to go "dee-ice" and "play hockey", also always wants to go skating and sledding (MORE!) Truthfully he's going everywhere all the time.  Has started asking me "Doing Mommy?" when he wants to know what I'm doing.  

Making him happy: Helping out around the house (he helps make the beds by passing me the pillows), putting back food into the pantry after meals, mopping the floor.  


Liam's Version (@9 months):
Watching: Jonah and Ben.  

Loving: His newfound freedom of crawling! 

Going: To daycare!  Just one day a week so I can focus on school but I think he's ready for it and he seems to like it so far.  

Making him happy:  Food!  Finally.

My version: 
Watching: The Bachelor and Parenthood and that's pretty much  it.  Parenthood is seriously the best show ever.  If you haven't seen it you need to start watching it, it's like funny and serious and realistic all in one.  I just love how relatable all of the characters are.   

Loving: Stella & Dot.  When I started it was because I wasn't ready to go back to work full time but wanted something in the meantime to keep me connected with people.  I just love how surprised I've been with how much I've enjoyed it so far.  I've met some great people and I'm seriously in love with all of the jewelry.  

Going: On a date night once a week.  This is seriously the best decision we've made in a while.  It's been totally worth paying a sitter once a week to just have some time with Kirk and I just the two of us.  We're so lucky that we have so many great people in our lives but combine that with the kids and we just never really got time the two of us to hang out.  We're both liking our weekly pizza nights as just a casual and fun way to stay connected.  

Making me happy:  All of the exciting adventures coming up for me this year.  I cannot WAIT for all of the trips planned.  

Making me sad: I heard sad news that my mom's dog died last night - hurts my heart for my parents because they are such dog lovers and he was such a young dog.  So sad for them.
