Living in the moment

So i'm not big on posting on my blog without pictures cause Pictures make things interesting, but i unfortunately can't capture every moment on film. I had the best time last night with Josh. I love how he makes me laugh. We were up for hours last night cracking our own personally made up knock knock jokes. They were so terrible but we couldn't stop laughing. What a perfect way to end a long day. Especially cause i've been feeling so crummy lately, so forgetting it all feels so good. The other day we were driving in the car and we were eating sugar snap peas. I made a joke about a pea shooter and started shooting peas out of the pod at Josh. Then he retaliated by putting peas in his mouth and shooting them back at me. After awhile Josh started to choke on a pea and with a big cough it came shooting out. We were laughing so hard. I guess I love these moments cause with the little time we seem to get to spend together sometimes we really do make the best of it.

Fathers Day





I realize I didn't get any pics of Josh in these, but it was my duty to give Josh a break on his big day so it just so happened he missed out. Molly and Ben ate watermelon, Molly seemed to like it and Ben seemed to eat it regardless.

So big

Look how big he's getting. When he stands up like this he looks like he's a year old!

Musically talented

Ben is learning the piano!! He takes his finger and will press the same key over and over, like he's actually playing. Then he gets crazy and just starts banging.

Josh and I are learning to play the guitar. Josh is really good but very self-conscious about his singing. I keep telling him he sounds good, but of all the things he isn't afraid to do around me, he's totally embarrassed to sing. I've put a lot of effort in helping to build his self esteem in this area, but when Josh was playing the guitar and singing for Ben the other day Ben started to cry. I think he thought Josh was yelling at him or something. Anyway, this was not good for Josh. I think it's pretty funny!

Ben loves to brush his teeth. I gave him Josh's toothbrush and Josh didn't even notice until a few days later so he obviously didn't learn to brush from his daddy. Guess he learned that one from me.




We decided to try and teach Ben how to crawl since he hasn't figured it out on his own. I don't think he really gets it still. Oh well, we'll just keep waiting. I guess I should be grateful he's not all over the place, but I just get excited for him to learn new things.
During this event Spud came up to Ben and started to cuddle with him and Ben started to cuddle back. It was pretty cute. Then after Ben tried to roll on top of Spud cause he only knows how to go one direction.
