Our 2+ week update

So we have been busy and I have been lazy on the photo uploads, so FINALLY am going to make an update post.  Lots has gone on since the kids are FINALLY better!  First we had friends in town! Went to the splash park, pool and regular park.  Then we had lots of play time.  Had to help Daddy hang curtains, went to a birthday party for a 5 year old and all Evin's friends were there. Played at the park with a kite!! And even started to get some birthday presents for Jax's birthday.  Evie and Jax have been super busy and having fun. 

 Here playing with Evin's toys!

Happy 11 Months Jaxin

WOW, only one more month because I have a 1 year old.  I can't believe it!  Jax is growing like a weed!!  He was riding the Quad like a champ until I came outside and started to take a video.  This is the best I could get.

Animal Crazy!

Since both of my kids are Animal crazy, I thought it was appropriate to document this play time.  Evin brought several out of her room and then asked Mommy to help bring out the rest.  They played with them for over an hour!  It was a great afternoon yesterday!!  Oh and this are ONLY Evin's Animals.  Jaxin doesn't have nearly as many, but I would hate to see this mess if his were out too.

How they spent most of their Animal time!

Interesting monkey

Watching some TV

Cheese!

"Mommy, I sleepin!" (closes eyes for a picture)

Just Mommy and the Kids

Matt is off on a business trip and I am home alone with the kiddos trying to work.  To top it off, I have had no voice all week.  I hope it returns tomorrow.  The kids have been having fun together.  Check it out!

Playing together in Evin's kitchen.

Evin had to get in on a picture because Mommy was taking one of Jax.
Look at those faces, I don't think they are related....HaHaHa

To top off this week, Jaxin now has 2 teeth (top and bottom left front tooth) and he is taking up to 5 steps at a time.  Yep, Daddy is missing lots from Jaxin and Daddy is very sad about it. I can't blame him. Daddy called Evin tonight and helped put her to bed while on the phone.  Let me tell you, Evin thought that was the coolest thing in the world.  She misses her Daddy!
