18 Months

The boys turned 18 months on Sunday, and I just can't believe how fast time is flying by!  We went to the doctor yesterday and here are thier STATS:

Landon
Length - 30 3/4 in
Weight - 19 lbs 10 oz
Head - 18 1/4 in

Jordan
Length - 30 1/4 in
Weight - 19 lbs 10 oz
Head - 181/4 in

They still aren't on the charts, but they are growing, so the doctor is happy.  I'm glad they are still little so I can hold both of them when needed!  Here are a few pics and some fun facts about my favorite todders:

Mr Jordan - always has a ball in his hands

Such a sweet little guy!

Jordan is a just so sweet.  Some of his favorites these day include:
Chocolate Milk
Giving his brother kisses
Pointing to his nose, toes, teeth, hair etc. etc.
When daddy wrestles with him
Climbing up on everything
His blankie (thanks cousin Kari!)
Wearing his shoes
Going to Nana's for sleepovers
Baby Einstein (only Nana and Daddy let him watch these)
Electronics (phones, remotes, computers etc.)
Noodles (takes after Uncle Adam)
Brushing his teeth
Chasing Aspen

Pretty happy boy!

Landon just gets sweeter as time goes by.  Definently a Mama's boy lately!  Here are his favorites:
Obsessed with Lovie.. loves putting the tag in his mouth while he sleeps
Helping Mommy clean - loves vaccums, brooms, mops, dusters etc.
Running and running and running
Taunting Daddy (runs up to him, makes a noise and runs away)
Gives kisses to everyone (especially his bro)
Loves candy - flaps his arms when you give it to him
Says "HIII" in a high voice with his head turned to the side
Laughs when Daddy just comes into the room
He loves any drinks.  He will carry a cup around all day if you let him.
Loves brushing his teeth

Haircut #2

The boys were due for a haircut, again, and this time they weren't fans. Landon cried the entire time, and Jordan didn't like it much better. Nana got to come this time and got a couple pics!




Poor Landon!

Jordan got to play video games

Mommy had to hold his head still for the bangs!

After pics.. coming soon (they needed naps after, so I'm waiting for them to wake up!)

Raisins and Birthdays

The boys have been spoiled since we have been OK with them having candy lately and Eric takes the opportunity each evening after dinner to give them some sweets.  We have these chocolate covered raisins from Costco that they love, and even though they typically only get 2-3, they think it's the best thing ever.  Eric enjoys having them do tricks to get the sweets, and lately kisses have been our favorite.  Notice the tough guy shirt Jordan is wearing when he leans into Landon for a wet one!

"Kiss your brother"

Share with Daddy!

Dropped one!

Daddy is getting them right before we leave for a party

Landon happily gives Daddy kisses for treats!

We had a great Saturday as it was time to celebrate Sammy's birthday!  We packed the boys up and headed down to OCNJ for the afternoon!  They have decided sleeping in the car is overrated, so they had some short naps, but the excitement of the party kept them from being fussy!  It was well worth the trip as they had my fave Mack 'n Mancos, and we even got to bring home some leftovers!  Thanks Nate and Kel... great party!

Fall Fun

We have had a fun fall this year.  The boys are enjoying being outside and now that they are running around, everything is such an adventure.  Eric was excited to get them their first hockey sticks and net.  Jordan especially loves his hockey stick and will carry it around for hours and even take it with him for naps.  They enjoy climbing all over the place, and running around like crazy most of the time.  They are getting so big and changing everyday.

Landon loves moving stuff around

Another serious lesson

We had to take a picture with the new tree before the snow came.  Last year you might remember the crazy pic of the boys with the funny faces :) 


 

Here they are just a year later!

Silly boys - facepaint is on from our Halloween parade


Jordan loves picking up leaves

Landon yelling and screaming at the tree!

This is the boys during our first snow of the year on October 29, 2011.  Our power went out for over 24 hours and Daddy figured they needed some baby Einstein on the dying computer :)  They don't want TV or videos much, so this was a treat for them.  They sat there for almost 20 minutes just watching, pointing and laughing!

2 pairs of PJs since it was only 55 degrees in the house

I'm so thankful for who they are becoming and that I have the privilege of being their mommy.  They love daddy and get so excited when he wakes up each afternoon to play with them!  He loves to tickle them and they are even starting to wrestle with him which is so sweet to see.  We are excited to have my parents and Uncle Joel coming to PA for Thanksgiving this year.  It will be so good to spend some time with family.  We have so much to be thankful for!

Happy Halloween - Go Flyers!

Our second Halloween was so fun this year!  The boys dressed up as Flyers players, and overall we had a great night!  I'm so thankful for the boys, and it's so fun to see thier personalities come out more and more!  They really enjoyed seeing all the other kids and going up to the doors!  Next year will be even better when they don't trip everytime they come around the corner on a sidewalk!!
