August 20: Around

On Thursday Sara helped Kendra and Daniel de-stress by convincing them to color with her!



Mick is constantly babbling now. One of my favorite things is when he babbles in the car. Sometimes he even cracks himself up. Here is a video of him babbling while we're waiting to pick Sara up from dance.

August 19: Parrain and Dora

Mick FINALLY got to meet Uncle Landry!!

From August 2009

Parrain brought Sara a princess piano (as Sara calls the keyboard) which she really likes, but she was really more concerned with opening this turtle for Mick. She really loves her baby brother and tries hard to take care of him. I can only hope she'll be so sweet when she's about 16 or so!

Later on, Sara and I went to Dora the Explorer Live. It was a little overwhelming, but we had fun! Thanks Amie!

Silly Daddy feeding Mick

From August 2009

I left Mick on his play gym in his room for a minute while I was putting some stuff away. This is what happened before I got back! Silly boy :)

This is what happens when I leave the kids with Daddy:


Just looking cute:

Hope y'all are doing well! We're heading to Lafayette tomorrow for Kendra's wedding this weekend (YAY!) so I'll try to update when I can. Let's all hope Sara will be a good flower girl...

August 16: Ice cream and trains

We had a very relaxing Sunday. After naptime, we went to get some ice cream- it was yummy!

So yummy that Sara drank the melted ice cream... thank God for Oxi-Clean!

After ice cream we went to the bookstore for a little while and let Sara play with the train table. It was a nice way to end a great weekend :)

They were splashing around a lot, but apparently I missed it!

August 14: Castles and Papa

Sara loves to play with her castle and doll house. She particularly likes for all the people to go in and out the door and in and out and in and out...

Later on we went over to Aunt Connie's to visit with Maw-maw and Papa and Annabelle and JP and their parents and Allison and Hanna and Bruce and the Brouillette's and Amie and Paw-Paw and Nathan and Kristin. It was fun!! I didn't take too many pictures, but here are some:

August 13: 5 months and dancing

Can you believe that Mick is already 5 months old?!? Its just crazy to think so much time has passed since he was born. Of course, a lot has changed for us it that 5 months :) He is so big and rolling all over the place. He is trying to get up on his knees and can pretty much get himself anywhere in the room. He has 2 teeth on the bottom (the bottom right and the one next to it) and is growing like a worm! We sure do love him and I can barely remember what our lives were like without him.
He is also really good at getting things into his mouth (as are all babies...)





I often catch Mick talking to himself in his mirror when he wakes up. I thought that I would be sneaky and get it on video... of course he wasn't doing it!! He cracks me up because sometimes I'll go into his room and he'll be at the other end of his crib and 180 degrees from where I layed him down. This morning I went into his room and his pacifier was on the floor! Crazy boy :)

Sara said Mick wanted to watch a movie... looks like it to me! He's probably tired of princess movies...
It was also Sara's first dance class. She was so excited and we were excited for her!

This was the first thing she's done that we couldn't watch. It about broke my heart. She says she liked her class and her favorite thing was marching (I am assuming in her tap shoes!) She also really enjoyed the post-class Tootsie Roll!

After bath time, Mike and the kids enjoyed some quiet time together (and the TV...)

August 12 Mommy's Day Out

On Wedensday Mike watched the kids and I ran around with Kendra getting ready for the wedding. I can't believe it almost time for their wedding! It was nice to have a day away from the kids!
This is one of my favorite Mick faces- its his cheesy smile. I call it his "turtle face" because it reminds me of a turtle! What do you think?


Here is a video of Sara singing- she loves to make up songs!



Sara loves to play in the water hose in the yard!

Mick loves to talk to me- he is so funny!

August 11: Dance clothes

Sara is taking a dance class. On Tuesday we went to get her clothes and shoes and she just loves them!! She especially LOVES her tap shoes- we let her try them on when we got home, but I have since had to hide it all in her closet...
