First laughs

This week both Joe and Helen both did their first laugh out louds! I was so suprised at their little peels of laughter and of course LOL'd myself. Joe laughed when I was slobbering him with big slurpy kisses and Helen laughed when I put her feet up her nostrils haha! She spends most of the day holding her feet so she was in awe of her new found toe skills :-)

They are starting to be little humans now. They still have the same basic personalities that they were born with but they add layer upon layer of newness onto their little selfs. They are changing so fast now that I am trying to remember all the changes and hope that I do not forget them.

PLUS sleeping...Joe has been hard work since Munchy left with getting him to sleep. While Helen rolls over, sucks her thumb and goes off to nod, Joe screams for ever until we give up and bounce him. I know this is wrong and a potential bad habit but he disturbs Helen and then she cries and boom goes the next hour! We are thinking of separating their rooms so he cannot disturb her.

Joe talks!

So this evening I was talking to the juniors and I noticed Joebug watching my mouth closely and trying to repeat my words!

I said "mama"
Joe said "mmmmmammmmma"
I said "Helen"
Joe said "eeeeeeeeeeennnnn"
I said "hello"
Joe said "eeeeeeeeeooooooo"

Our new Chariot CX2

We finally purchased the best model of Chariots on the market! I am so excited about this marvellous buggy. It can run, ski, bike and hike on trails, it has full suspensions, disc brake, glides like a dream. the kiddoes love it and I can get out more. Cannot wait for snow now to x country ski some wide trails :-)

Chariot do a couple of dual models and they are made right here in Calgary.
