~Our Life in January~

January 14

One of the things that I'm looking forward to with this 365 challenge of photos is that I'm going to be documenting all those things that mean so much to me in my world, that I would not think of taking a photo of usually. These two things below happen to be two of my favorite things about where these kids are at in their ages currently. They both amaze me so much. 

Abby has a corner on her blanket that she MUST hold onto when sucking her thumb and holding her "May May" (blanket). She says "Torner" (Corner) and we have to search the blanket for the corner with the hole that opened up to a simple edge without the stitching. She thought of this around age 1 and it means so much to her. She is amazing.

I love watching Hunter play the computer. For the longest  time, he would hold those fingers on his right hand so tight moving it on the touch pad that he would have to stop every 2 minutes and massage and stretch his hand. It was so funny! He is smart when it comes to these games online. I sat there that night watching him do gogirlsgames.com playing the cooking class. He knew right where to go and right what to do. He is amazing.

This ended up being another day that I didn't get to see the kids all day due to work. Things have been crazy at work and I've been needed to be there to keep things going as smoothly as possible. Just one of those things in life where lots of changes are going on at work and once we get through it, it will be better, but we have to muddle through the changes to get there. I won't post a photo of my work... but that was my day.

Our puppy-Tucker- LOVES "chewy's"... he gets so excited! Tonight was a good night for him because he got one.

Peeking out from behind the camera!

Abby said "Peek a boo!" with a great big smile!

He pulled this toy off the shelf and he hasn't played with it much since we bought it. Funny how things will come around again!

Tonight was one of those nights after long days at work, lots of stress, and what seems like a VERY long week... I just wanted to snuggle my babies all night. I only got a few short hours with them, but I did make sure to get my cuddles in. 

One thing I was super excited about today was that I received an email from one of the apps that I have on my phone that Abby uses. It is called Kid Zone. It sends me a weekly update of what games/songs/apps that Abby is choosing. It also sends me copies of her drawings on it and tonight she figured out how to send me a video message! It is a great program, I'm happy my sister told me about it! It was a bright shiny moment in a very long day!
