Wow, May is almost over!
So much has happened & will happen! Naomi is now 9 months old! She'll be 1 before we know it! :)
She's standing by herself, she uses us/couch to walk. She takes just a couple steps with one of us holding her hands until she just stops and plops down! :)
She's eating mostly table food that we eat--mac & cheese, beans/rice, mashed potatoes, eggs. Mostly things she can eat. We still give her SOME baby food, but usually when our meals consist of things that we can't feed her yet.
She's getting TWO more teeth! On either side of her two front teeth. She's having a little trouble with them, giving her a little pain. Not too much because she's still very smiley most of the time ;)
Her hair has gotten so much longer! There's a little spot on top of her head where the hair is just long enough to clip a hair barrette to it! haha She's not too impressed when I do that, lol
She says mama, dada, baba... She tries to clap. But instead of using both hands, she slaps her leg. haha. It's cute. She loves when someone's clapping though. She LOVES one of the books Brodie got for his birthday, a Marvel one. Has Spiderman, Hulk, Captain America, Spidergirl... All those super heroes in it, and the pages give you pictures that you point out. She LOVES it though! She'll go to it all the time and open the book and just jabber at the pages! It's so cute! :)
She absolutely loves Brodie. Watches him, wants to play with him. He loves her too. He's tried to feed her. He kisses her, hugs her, pats her on the head, plays with her. It's very cute.
Yesterday we went and had our family pictures done (which the few I saw look totally amazing and I cannot wait to share!) and on the way back, both kids were in the backseat just talking to each other. Brodie was cracking Naomi up! It was hilarious!! And SO cute!! Best friends they are :)
Of course they do go off and do their own things too, but when they play with one another, it's amazing. Really fills your heart with joy.
Speaking of Brodie, he's doing just great. He's learning a lot! He tries to count to ten, but can't quite say some of the numbers--same with his ABC's. He knows how it goes and can say most letters but there are still some that he can't quite say.
He has a favorite song. Ben burned me the new Britney Spears album so on my way to work after dropping the kids off I listen to it--gets me pumped for the day. So it's playing when I pick the kids up from daycare and on our way home. He loves the song "Big Fat Bass" with Will.I.Am. Loves it. He asks for it. He'll point to the back speakers and say "bass! bass!" So of course we have to give in and let him listen to his song!! :) lol It's cute. He also sings a long to the beginning.
He also loves our iPad. It's his. He is on that thing way more than I'm even on it. I don't even fight him over it, it's not worth it. It entertains him and it's teaching him. He knows exactly what apps he likes, how to play the games, how to choose his shows on Netflix and the other kids show app thing we have on there.
He's going to be a little techie-kid like his daddy was :)
In 11 days the kids will be in Ellsworth & Salina while Ben and I go on vacation to Vegas. Everyone's very excited. The kids don't really know what's up yet, and I really hope they do well without us for awhile. We'll be back in Ellsworth/Salina the 10th-12th, right in time for the River Festival! I cannot wait to take them there! I loved going as a kid, and now I get to take them. :) I am pretty excited about it :)
Anyway, we are all well and doing great and in good health! Can't wait to see family & friends in a couple weeks!!

Mother's Day weekend
This past weekend was dedicated all to me :) It was such a nice weekend too. Ben didn't have to work and for the most part, the kids were very good!
Saturday morning we went to the City Market, the bigger farmer's market in KCMO. We got quite a bit of fresh produce and spices. I did get some amazing raspberry jalapeno dip, too! There were quite a bit of people there, but it was beautiful out and we were happy to be outside.
After lunch Saturday, we went to the mall to do some shopping. The family got me a couple dresses and a top for our vacation to Vegas (in about three weeks!!!). :)
We also participated in 'Free Comic-Book Day' on Saturday! Got Brodie (and Ben) some comics for their collections.
Sunday, on actual Mother's Day, it was again so beautiful outside! I went in the kids' room where Ben was too and was greeted with two lovely cards. :)
Sunday afternoon we went shopping again. We were going to go to the zoo yesterday, but Ben's knee was hurting him so I didn't want to him to be hurt more by walking around the zoo.
We got a few snacks and Naomi some shoes/tights. Nothing too special bought on Sunday :) It was just a really nice day that we spent together.
It was a really great weekend. We hope everyone else had a great Mother's Day weekend too! :)
