On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays while Teagan and Koren are both in school me and my littlest monkey just get to hang. I savor these mornings as I know all too well that soon I will be babeless and missing them all.
books.snacks. pretend play. more snacks. more books.climb.repeat.
that's how it went today.
This past weekend Koren participated in his first ever ski race. He has been skiing with the MRST Ski Stars for the past 8 weeks and to conclude the season they have a fun little race and awards barbeque. Since I grew up ski racing and was really really excited about Koren starting this year I'm not sure who was more excited about Saturday. I'm pretty positive it was me. He did awesome and had fun, which is what matters most!
I wonder how long I will continue to document Lachlan by the month. I guess I'm holding on to the fact that he could be the last babe and I never though of doing this with the other two.
Anyhoo.
Lockie is moving right along and entering the "terrible twos" I say that with a smile because all though he is VERY curious and tends to be way too indepenedant he's so damn cute while making trouble that it's hard to get mad at him. He loves markers and since we seem to have a house full of them he has no trouble finding them when i'm not looking. He will tell me, "me coloh, me coloh mark." Yes L you did color with the markers. Thanks.
He's putting 2 and 3 words togehter. Every morning he will tell Justin, "Tre food me!" He wants to go help feed Traeger. His hair is half way between a really cute head of curls and bedhead mullet. He loves animals and mimicking all the noises they make. He sleeps a ton! LOVES bathtime. Hates when he can't do exactly what he wants, when he wants. Thinks he can do whatever the bid kids can do. As I type this he is standing on a stool getting a cup of water from the dispenser in the fridge. Oh Lockie.
the sun was shining. the kids were tired of being indoors. so we went out and played. end of story.
Having 3 kids means not a lot of one-on-one time. Whenver I have the chance to steal a few moments with just one of the monkeys I try and cherish whatever it is we are doing.
Koren was supposed to be skiing today. He hasn't missed a day of his ski team program yet but had to stay home today because of a lingering fever that we've all been fighting. Little Lockie was down for a nap and Teag's and J were out running errands.
Koren asked if he could bake something together with me. Well we all know that I don't bake so I put him in charge of a box of brownie/cookies and let him have at it. It was awesome to see his ready skills take over and he did EVERYTHING except put the pan in the oven. I was such a proud mom and he I think was even more proud of himself. LOVE my oldest dude, even though he's not much for being in front of the camera I was able to capture him doing his thing today.
Playing with bubbles inside sounded like a fun idea. It was for a while, but then the invetiable happened. Luckly we teach our kids to "shake it off' and soon they were up and running again.
