what's up with that?

What is going on with the whole Swine Flu and Measles outbreaks??  Pretty scary.  Although, I think the media just likes having something to talk about.  

We were at the grocery store the other day and a lady came right up to me and got right in Ryan's face.  He was in the Bjorn carrier.  It annoyed me so much.  Ryan was sleeping with his head on my chest and she was practically reaching in to try and turn his head.  I backed up and I think she got the hint - DON'T TOUCH MY KIDS!!.  I guess I can't blame her to much though.  They are the most beautiful children I have ever seen :)

Luke now calls for Ryan.  He calls him "Ba".  Its so cute.  He will name everyone in the room starting with "dada, mama, deu, mae mae, and ba".

Well, gotta run.  Luke is in his toy box throwing out every single toy.  I need to make sure no one is in the line of fire!

My Two Monkeys

Roll Over

Ryan rolled over for the first time at 8 weeks!  I am amazed at this.  The first roll we thought was just a fluke BUT Ryan managed to do it again several times and even switched sides :)  I'm a very proud momma!  We took some video to document the milestone :)  Ryan is such a great baby.  Very relaxed and LOVES to smile.  He thinks we are all very funny and has a sweet giggle.  I think he has inherited my incredible sense of humor :)

Luke has also made some important developments!  He can actually do the dance from Yo Gabagaba with Jack Black.  Its so cute!  He does that Staying Alive move - point up to the sky, point down to the ground, and roll you arms.  We have now watched that episode about 500 times but to be honest I sort of like watching it too!

The weather is sooo hot now but does not phase Luke at all.  He is so in love with the backyard and has the best time puttering around.  We put up a screen on the back door so he and the dogs can come in and out of the house when they please.   Luke is great at warning me when he sees a bug now.  I actually really appreciate that b/c I like to sit in the sun with Ryan.  Luke will yell "Bu, Bu, Bu" at the top of his lungs when there is an aunt or any other yucky thing crawling around.

Today is Monday so no more Daddy to help :(  Luke sometimes forgets that Scott is at work and will call out for him during the day.  Its so sweet :)  We all three miss Daddy when he is gone!

Well, my sweet Ryan just woke up so I'm going to give him some tummy time and see if I can get him to roll again.

Smile!

Ryan is smiling now all the time :)  Its so sweet to see his little face light up.  I think I have gotten him to laugh as well.  He gets up about 6am every minoring and this is when I get a lot of one on one time with him b/c no one else is awake (lucky them!).  I actually look forward to that time:)  He is so alert and really wants to be talked to and held.  Yesterday he was in his swing and Luke was watching him and both boys were just smiling at each other.  It was so cute to see that!  I think they will be great buddies.

My poor Luke is getting in his molars so he has been in a lot of pain recently.  But today (even with the rain!) he seems to be feeling better.  He is in a climbing phase now so we have to keep a constant eye on him.  He is still totally obsessed with going outside but I think that is a good thing.  I would rather that then have him watch TV all day.  He loves all his outside toys and also loves to hear all the noises of birds, plains, trucks, buses, etc.  It is so cute to watch him.  Luke also now knows the power of the word please.  He has figured out he gets pretty much anything he wants when he tilts his head and smiles and says "peas".  It is so precious and he knows it!

Scott is back to work today :(  All three of us miss him terribly!  I am looking forward to him having paternity leave again with #3 (ha ha, I hope you are reading this Scott!!!)
