Play date Wednesday!

The boys started off today with a play date of their own.  Wyatt and Owen love playing with each other as you can see in their faces:


After a quick morning nap (still working on the new schedule), we headed out to meet up with Tessa and Charlie, Kate and Trevor, Meg and Myah, and Katie, Josh, and Nick.  As always we took over a large piece of property near the splash pad and had a great morning!  Wyatt was a funny one, while laying looking at the trees, he decided to "talk" to the trees.  He would yell, laugh, smile and yell again over and over.  I guess you could say Wyatt "found" his voice today!

It isn't "Play Date Wednesday" without another afternoon play date.  Wyatt, Owen and I drove over to Mandy's to have a play date with her, Antonia, and Taylor.  We had a fantastic time.  Thanks for the fun laughs, great company, and cute pajamas!

This day is brought to you by the letter P and the number 2!

Today was a day of peas, prunes, Pop and two new milestones for the boys!

Milestone #1: Owen and I were playing in his room and he rolled over on his tummy.  I heard Wyatt waking up in the other room, I left to get Wyatt, came back, and low and behold Owen was on his back.  He rolled from his belly to his back!  Way to go Owen!

Pop joined us for lap time at the library.  The boys enjoy listening to the songs and watching the older kids.  Their favorite songs are Hurry, Hurry Drive the Firetruck and the Itsy Bitsy Spider.  It is a lot of work participating and being so cute.  We came home and the boys took a 3 hour nap (at the same time)!

Milestone #2: Wyatt woke up first and was having some one on one tummy time with Mommy, when Owen woke up.  I turned around to get Owen, turned back and to my surprise Wyatt was now on his back.  He too rolled from his belly to his back!  Way to go Wyatt!

The boys are really enjoying their food, today we started peas and prunes.  Wyatt was a bit hesitant at first,


but he ended up LOVING it!



Owen, our little piggy, was also a bit hesitant at first,



but he too ended up LOVING it!


Mommy and Daddy love you so much Wyatt and Owen and we are so proud of you and your accomplishments!

Monday Milestones!

Today was another big day in the Smith household... Owen rolled over from his back to his belly. Owen noticed his feet this weekend and it was just a matter of time before his curiosity would get the best of him. All morning long he was so close to rolling... I had my phone all set to video his big move. Looking back I had 8 videos of Owen moving from his back to his side and then back again. He went down for a nap and I was sure he was resting up for his big day.

He woke up, ate his bottle, and was ready to play. Pop had just come over to visit and was playing with Wyatt when all of a sudden.. bloop, he rolled over. No warning, no fan fair, just a roll and then playing on his belly; like he had been doing it all his life. Shoot, I missed the big roll:( Here is the picture of the result of his "hard work":

Is it true that a new milestone is very hard for a baby and it allows them to sleep longer? Here is a bit of proof:


As always I had a wonderful day with the boys. They surprise me each and every day. I was finally able to get a very difficult picture of them both smiling and right before bed (that is unheard of):
