Baby Chinese

Hayley loves to babble, especially at dinner when we are all sitting around the table. Because we can't exactly understand her, Kyra and Myles are sure she's speaking "baby Chinese"! Every once in a while her "talking" sounds like real words. A few nights ago the conversation went like this: Hayley- blah, blah, blah, blah
Daddy- What? You want to go to Walmart?
H- blah, blah, blah
Myles- No, she said she wants a red ball.
H- blah, blah, blah
Kyra- I think she wants chocolate!

Hayley is saying a few real words like "uh-oh" (about every 5 minutes), da-da(When we talk about Daddy coming home from work she bangs on the door and says "da-da"), and when "talking" on the play phone she says "Hola!".

Hayley is also really into baby dolls. She carries this one around and feeds her milk:)

Super Girl...and Super Boy

After they zoomed through the house, jumped off the couch, and tackled Daddy they stood still just long enough for me to snap these pictures...

New Lines

Myles: "Wanna see my six pack?!"

Kyra: "This is what I'd look like as a turtle."

Mommy: "Hayley, where's your tongue?"

Puddle Jumping!

They say boys take longer...

I'm not sure who "they" actually are, but Myles is doing his best to prove them right. This is our second attempt at potty training, and now that Myles is 3 we were sure he could handle it.

The first day went something like this:

Mommy: "Myles, lets go sit on the potty."

Myles: "Nooooooooooo!!"(screaming and running in the opposite direction of the bathroom)

After a while he warmed up to sitting on the potty(since I was bribing him with candy), but he'd sit for about 5 minutes, we'd read a story and NOTHING would happen. Then we'd get him dressed again and no joke, 4 minutes later he's creating a lake on our living room floor! Multiply that times 6 or 7 in the day...I might just give up and send him to high school in diapers:).

Let's just say that if I make it through this potty training thing only using 1 can of Resolve on the carpet, we'll consider it a success!

Happy Birthday Myles!

We had a great time at Myles' 3rd b-day party! He of course requested a "Lightning McQueen" party...we played pin the wheels on Lightning McQueen, red light-green light, and had a cars "yata"(translated pinata). Myles also requested chocolate cake and chocolate ice cream(a boy after my own heart:) with cars and "little balls"(sprinkles) on it. It was so much fun having a boy party after sooo many princess parties:). So now Myles is "tree" but he might tell you he's 2, 3, 4, or 5 depending on the day and the mood!
