Things to remember

So, I've really just been loving EVERY little thing about my kids lately, and thought I better write them down soon, so when I have "one of those days" with the kids, I can remember the things that make it all worth it. One of my absolute favorite things about Lydia right now is how much she wants to be "big" and do everything that I do. An example that I just love is when I vacuum. As soon as she sees me taking it out, she RUNS to her stroller, and traces every inch of carpet I vacuum over- usually getting in my way a lot- because she wants to be like me. She also loves to do her makeup with me. She will take blush, mascara, powder, ANYTHING, and rub it on her lips, then smack them together. It is so
stinking cute!!!

Ben is getting more fun all of the time!! Oh, as a quick update, he just had his 4 month check up, and is just over 20 lbs, 27 inches, and I was so graciously told he has a big head. :) He was well of the charts with it all. I'm really not surprised. My back could have told the doctor that! Carrying him around is kind of taking it's toll on me, but he's worth it. :) He has discovered his tongue and making sounds with it. SO CUTE! He usually is so happy. He really brings sunshine to my life. He is starting to giggle more when I tickle him, and he also has the most girliest scream you will ever hear! I love him so much!
