"Cause, we're the Best of Friends

I love when these two can play together. One minute they are best friends and the other they are enemies. They are so sweet together when they want to be. As I talked to my beautiful mom the other day a little discouraged and holding back the tears as Sophie and MJ had been at war for what seemed like the whole day. She kindly and loving said to me "Well I hate to say this but payback is a (you all know what goes in the blank) All I can say is thank you mom for surviving it through Brigg and I. I've heard the stories and amazingly enough my mother is still alive to tell them. It will all work out in the end. I am living proof as my brother and I are best friends. He is an ultimate example to me and the best brother! While on this topic I also need to thank my sweet mother in law as I am sure, no I know that Mike and her boys put her through the ringer. Pretty sure it was mostly Mike! But Thank you to these amazing Mothers who did a great job and are still around to smile and laugh about it. I LOVE YOU!

I have learned that my little princess, amazing dancer, and perfect poser girl Sophie is a total beach babe, bum, surfer girl whatever you want to call it. She loves the beach and the pool like no other. She loves to crash into the waves and go out as far as she can by herself without even hesitating. She is a cautious girl but when it comes to water you can not stop her. I love this about her and the cutest comment after the beach while I am rinsing her down as she is a little concerned about the little sand in her tiny rump she says "mom I love Florida so much!"
Then I have MJ who looks more like a beach bum with his dark skin and he is o.k. with the beach and the pool but would do anything to throw, catch, or swing at any ball. For this I am so happy that I have a little energized athlete I couldn't love him more. I am continually amazed at how natural he is at everything and how he can pitch himself the ball and hit it for a home run. Although at times he is my trial I couldn't be more blessed. I love him dearly and I am so proud of him.

I have the most amazing children and love them so much that it's crazy. Where would I be without these little pieces of Heaven. That my Heavenly Father has entrusted me with.

Mom and Me

Today Sophie decided to bring Sadie with us to the pool so she could push her just like "how mom pushes MJ." I told her of course you can bring her but just remember Sadie can not go into the pool or she will get ruined. "Of course Mom" she says. So I had to snap this picture as we were walking it was so stinkin cute and of course my darling little girl posed. Now I know you are thinking with a son like mine Sadie had to of ended up in the pool. Believe it or not she didn't. I did have to save the doll and the stroller from going into the pool a couple of times but it was a huge success. Then classic little girl comment as we are walking home from the pool, Sophie gets about half way and "mom i can't push Sadie anymore, my hands hurt." So imagine me pushing the double stroller and the tiny stroller I am sure that was quite the picture! Then Sophie says "Mom pushing Sadie makes me nervous" Nervous! where did that come from big words for little girls. She obviously has heard that around. I can't tell you how many times I say that makes me nervous when MJ pulls out the Knifes to play swords or insists on standing on the ledge to jump off whatever possible.

Oh P.S.

If you are wondering why all of my pictures have a little blur. It would naturally be my almost 2 year old son who felt the need to dip my camera into a cup of water. Things like that are so fun!

BeSt FrIeNdS!

Here is Sophie with her best bud Jada. We went to our dear friends the Wernli's for a fun easter egg hunt and yummy brunch. It was so much fun and Sophie loved being with Jada. They played dress up in every different dress you can think of.

My lil Huckelberry Finn and DaVinci

I know, who knows if overalls are in anymore. But come on when you look this cute in them it is totally ok! And yes she is eating olives out of the can with a fork, I told ya a little huckleberry fin.
Don't worry it is just marker on his face. You will probably notice that their is obviously more marker on his body and my floor then even close to the amount of marker on the paper.
