A Thousand Words!

Wednesday. August 15. 2012

Breakfast! 

The saying holds true that a picture is worth a thousand words - and with Ben, this picture literally does. I snapped this photo of him this morning after finally meeting ALL of his requests for breakfast. The second I lifted him out of his crib he exclaimed "water baba! oatmeal!" - We came downstairs and he demanded (in his oh so sweet Benjamin way) "Maggie's seat!" - "Place mat! Elmo Ernie! Bibbie!" He knows his routine and he likes to stick to it - which means I better be on my toes the minute he pops open those big blue eyes. 

2 of his greatest loves -
daddy and the garbage truck

Since today is Wednesday, that means garbage day - and for Ben, this is a BIG deal! He loves to watch the garbage truck and always has a wave and a smile for the garbage man as he says "Dank do!" This morning was an extra special Wednesday morning since Dan just happened to leave for work at the same time the garbage truck arrived. Two of his most favorite morning routines happening at the same time! Saying "Bye Bye!" to daddy and greeting the garbage truck :) Life is good! 

Reading his "Gaga Pop" book :)
and wearing Maggie's shoes (of course)

The rest of the early morning, Ben played quietly while he waited for Maggie to wake up. One of his favorite books  is"Gaga Pop" book. They recorded it for  the kids when they moved to Florida and Ben LOVES to listen to it :) 

Kathryn just rolled over for the first time!

 Sweet Kathryn rolled over for the first time today! And yesterday, I found her playing with her fingers. Having three little babies so close together, I am always worried about missing their "firsts" - or having enough time to give each one enough attention - I was so thrilled to actually witness 2 of her little milestones and be able to capture a photo as well!

A Few More Memorable Moments form the last few days :) ...

"Mother Earth" singing a happy song!

I snapped this photo as she
pretended to "color daddy green".  

The other night, Dan and I took the kids for a drive (We often do this when they are antsy or on the verge of a melt down and it's too early to put them to bed). This particular evening, just as we are about to leave, Maggie felt compelled to dress as a crayon - so why not?! Moo never fails to make us laugh. She is always up to something goofy! On our drive, Maggie requested we watch the "Planet DVD". There are no words to describe this show - except for that it is from Nonnie. Nonnie never ever fails to buy the most entertaining movies for our children. This particular one stars all nine planets (yes, Puto included) with talking/singing faces. Though a little obnoxious - it is educational! Maggie even stated "Nonnie buys the best shows!" - 
                                                                  and she does!! 

I'm enjoying capturing these simple moments - 

Love,

Mommy Myers

play time!
