Little Laps

Blogger has a new look and I'm trying to get the hang of it.  This is my first post using the new writing format.  Not sure how it will look on the other side. 

Saw this today while I was working on the laptop and thought it warranted a post.  Kaiya asked her brother if he wanted to sit on her lap while they watched tv.  And he did!  So cute when he is catching up to her size wise.  There isn't the size gap that there used to be.

I wish my name was...

Kaiya is on a name kick. Question asked at least once a day: "Mama, what do you wish your name was?" The following Kaiya statements are all said with a huge sigh prior to speaking.

Kaiya: *Sigh* I wish my name was Brooklynne.

I wish my name was Britney.

I wish my name was something that starts with the letter D. Guess what it is mama!

Mama, all of our names could have been spelled with the letter C. Caiya, Caleb & Cadence. *Sigh* I would have liked that so much better.

Well... my sweet Kaiya. When you give birth, you can name your child whatever you want!! :)

5 Things I love about Kadence

We're still getting to know Kadence around here. But it's true... I love her more and more each day. Since she is, with no question, the most neglected child when it comes to the blogosphere - I thought I would dedicate a few posts to the things I am loving and learning about Kadence.

1) She makes monster noises. The cutest, growliest, manliest little monster noises.

2) She is truly a happy happy baby. Very quick to smile.

3) She does this adorable little bashful thing. When I am holding her and people say hi to her she give a huge grin and then buries her little face in my neck. A.Dorable.

4) She holds her own. She will growl, shriek and pull hair when necessary. Particularly when her brother is all up in her space.

5) She's a mama's girl. Not gonna lie. She might be my last baby and I am not sad that she loves me and wants me. Makes me feel special.

Stickers & Sisters

Holy smokes. 2 months without a post on this poor neglected blog of mine. Moving right along...

Took a trip to Trader Joe's today and the kids got long strips of stickers. Kaiya happily decorated her sister with them on the car ride home. I went to get the carseat out and found this:

Both shoulders, both feet, both knees - and there were more under the blanket. After nap, found one on the little sweetie's tush.

I love both my girls. And that little boy in the middle.
