All Smiles

Today was a miraculous day! I was able to get both of my boys to smile for a photo.

And here are a couple more pics of my ever growing and ever changing little Brigg.

The things I teach my 2 year old

I recently began the wonderful (add sarcasm) task of occasionally pumping and freezing breast milk so that someday I can leave Brigg with his daddy for more than an hour. When Kyle saw the milk in the freezer he was not happy and made it very clear that he has no intentions of being left alone with both Gage and Brigg so it's a waste of my time to store milk...but my birthday is coming up and I think that would be the perfect time for Kyle to try out super-fatherhood while I do a day at the spa. :)

Anyway, when Gage saw me pump for the first time and realized that MILK actually comes out of those things, he was totally thrilled. He is now obsessed with the breast pumping. I had my back to him in the kitchen the other day and he said to me, "milk", "boobies." I turned around and this was what I saw:

He doesn't quite understand that milk only comes out of my boobies, and that no amount of effort will bring milk to him from his own pectorals. So everything has become a means of extracting milk from himself...the empty bubble container, cups, his toys, etc. No luck yet, but he's determined to keep trying since I will only let him have one glass of milk (cow's milk, not my milk) every day and he wishes that he could drink milk all day long.

More Brigg

Brigg is getting huge, losing his hair and sleeping as much as he can during the day so he can party all night. We are enjoying him so much. He's such a sweet baby and has been very good at putting up with all the love he gets from his big brother. I am so grateful that the Lord sent us an easier baby this time around. Gage is so much fun but I don't know how I would have managed with two of him. :)

Doesn't he look just like his dad with these glasses on?

Gage's Birthday Continued...

We had the family over for cake and ice cream to celebrate Gage' s birthday again. The kids had fun playing with Gage's birthday presents and I was thrilled to get some adult interaction. :)

Thanks Anden for the cool lawnmower!!

Thanks Alexis for my T-ball set!

Grandma and Grandpa Greer surprised us by showing up for the party (they live in Utah so we weren't expecting them but were so excited to see them!)
