Jack 1st year of Preschool

My big boy

Jack is growing up so fast I can hardly stand it. He has officially completed his 

first year of school 

and he couldn't have loved it more! We feel so lucky that he likes school so much and practically begs to go every day! Lucky for us there is no break between school and summer school...thank goodness! We are going to miss his teacher Miss Marj soooo much she was great and Jack talks about her non stop!

Oh Boy Oh Boy

Everyone is pretty excited about adding another boy to the family but no one as much as Jane.

She hasn't stopped smiling since hearing the news

she knows it sealed the deal for her to stay the most spoiled one in the family!

other funny pictures...Dan takes random pictures in the morning while I'm still trying to catch a few more minutes of beauty rest. Here is our little goof ball!

she likes to party...

Every time my mom asks me how Jane is,  I always reply... 

"wacky"

Monkeying around

The other day we took the kids to Wat Phnom, a park in the city, that has 

Sambo the Elephant. 

You can feed Sambo bananas for just one dollar and if you ask me it's the best deal around...I mean who doesn't want to feed an elephant young or old, right? In the park there are also monkeys cruising around and on this particular day they were every where! The monkeys are known to be a little naughty so you try to keep your distance but at one point we had a monkey so close that even I got a little nervous and I've never seen Jack climb up my shoulders so fast! 

The only downer...it was HOT. I mean hot like I've never been hot before! 110 degrees with 80% humidity, we were all dripping with sweat! In the end it was worth it, Jack hasn't stopped talking about it and it helps remind me of all the cool things there are here!

Crazy kiddos

Can't get enough of these two...they are just so much fun!

Jacks groovy new homemade glasses

Janes new "CHEESE" smile for the camera

Wacky Baby

Jane Taylor

My Wacky Wild Funny baby

Ever since posting the pictures of her in her pigtails everyone has mentioned how big she is and it dawned on me that she is getting big and has changed so much and I have done a horrible job of documenting it...SO here are some JANE updates.

Jane is FUNNY! She loves to do silly things to make us laugh and if we aren't laughing at what she is doing then she is laughing at herself

Jane knows lots of animal noises but her favorite is a dinosaur...ROAR!

She talks all day long and although we don't understand much she knows exactly what she is saying

Jane loves school, she takes off running everyday we drop Jack off and cries when we leave

Jane is a total nightmare at church and makes my life really difficult on Sundays

Jane loves to color and will sit and color longer then Jack will

Jane dances to anything that resembles music

Jane loves showing her daddy how cute she looks and will even do a little spin to show him the whole pictures

Jane wants to wear her swimsuit all day everyday and I have to hide it or she whines until it's on

Jane is still our baby for at least a couple more months and I am loving this stage right now. I would freeze time if I could!

Her new "oh my...don't I look cute!" face
