Domesti-Kated Life

Greg can say Santa! Sounds more like Tanta but super cute none the less :-)

Little dude loves to have his hair brushed -- and last week figured out how to brush his own hair. Too cute

Greg took his first solo steps at our friends the Kaple's on 10/29/14!!! I happened to look into living room to see Greg take his first 3 steps before tumbling to the ground. He took a handful of steps that evening and a few more the next couple days and now is a preen try goo walking machine! His little drhnken stumbles are so fun to watch haha!

G was napping and K was playing with the push you music maker thing ... I asked her to stay in living room so we wouldn't wake Greg up and she replied "but this will make BEAUtiful music for G to sleep to" Lol

Ryan and I actually AGREED on where to go out to dinner on out FIRST suffered restaurant! This is a first and hopefully not last hahaha

Things I never thought I'd say "don't put a leash on your brother"

While helping bug with her PJs tonight she randomly said "you're the best mommy in the whole world" - <3 this kiddo

We've been back in Columbus for 5 months...but tonight, at Kylie's preschool orientation it really bit me. We're back. It's real. Kylie is about to start SCHOOL. I know she attended daycare/preschool in Phoenix, but somehow this is different. My baby girl is starting school. And by the time Greg is in kindergarten we will have 5 years in at our preschool! So exciting!

So Kylie pooped. In the pool. During swim class. And I missed it. At least she got the whole pool shut down. Things I never thought I'd say-ha!

Greg is officially on the move! He's army crawling with the best of them and trying ALL the time to get that cute belly off the ground. He even got his butt up in air and on his toes yesterday!

I need lots of water in my belly so I can groooww. -Kylie

Kylie random thought of day "remember when I watched tv at heather Jackson's? Remember that? I'll do that next summer"

I'll get married when in older  I'll. array you daddy when I'm older  How old do you have to be to get married? Umm...9 and a 1/2! I'll marry you when I'm 9 and a 1/2 daddy!

Kylie-where's the sun mom? Mom-it's behind the clouds today, it's overcast Later... Kylie-The sun is just resting today. 

At the end of dessert tonight Kylie was sitting on Ryan's lap and looked at me and said "I wanna go night night in the daytime right now" ... Well ok kid 715 bedtime is ok with is lol! She took herself right back to bed and with a slight discussion I was allowed to help tuck her in after she climbed in like a big girl and read herself a book!

When we told Kylie we were moving to Ohio we weren't sure how'd she take it but she asked lots of good questions (is daddy going to stay at our house? No, a new family is going to come live here) and after some pondering thoughts (are we going to drive to the airplane to go to grandma and Doodas? No we're going to drive the WhoLe way there in mommy a car!) she ten said that she needed to call Grandma and Dooda so we did and she got SuPEr excited and could barely get her thoughts out but ultimately told grandma she was going to go to her house and bring her princess shoes!

Well we decided to take the plunge and just move back to Columbus with no jobs lined up and see what happens! We have lucked out and I will be working remotely for at least 3 months which will help and we're going to live with Ryan's parents temporarily. Big change--lots of emotions floating around the decision. We started our loves here, our kids were both born here, we've got lots of great friends here - but so excited to be back closer to the family and other friends too! Built in babysitting - finally :)

"I don't want to leave, I want to stay here forever"

I love you, I love you - give me huuug

"I need my people!" Latest bedtime excuse to get all her dolls, princesses, stuffed animals in her bed lol

Kylie say cheese so we can show grandma your outfit  Cheese! I have a beautiful smile mom--and baby brother has a beautiful smile too
