2 Marjories and an Ian

Just a couple of cute pictures of Ian in case you are going through withdrawals which I can understand. He just keeps on getting cuter.

I got to go to California last week with Ryan and the boys. We had a really nice visit with my family. I also got to see one of my favorite people, Marjorie, the lady I was named after. I told her I wouldn't post this picture but we both look so cute I couldn't resist. She told me she checks Ike's blog every Tuesday and tells anyone passing by that these are her cute grand kids. I say by all means, she can claim me and them. I'm so glad I got a chance to spend some time with her while I was there.

Photobooth fun

I love when you are doing a photo's and hoping that they will turn out like this...
But they really end up turning out like this.

I'm thinking I should just send these out as my Christmas cards anyways because I think they sum up our lives pretty well.

Talking my ear off

My little man has learned how to talk. He's even doing it as I try to type this. I think it's absolutely adorable except when it's at 7am which is starting to be a habit. Thankfully he's not a cry er though. He kind of fusses when he's upset and he talks, loudly, when he's happy. And that's why we love him.

Trick or Tweet

Ike loved Trick or Treating this year. At every house he said, 'Twick o Tweet" then he would say "thank you" and when he got back to me he would say "next house". That was his 3 repeated phrases all night. People let him choose which candy he wanted and I thought it was fun to see what he would pick since he really doesn't know what's what. Then when someone tried to hand him candy he just reached in the bowl anyways. He only got scared one time when an old man had a scary costume, but he didn't cry he just quickly turned around and left the doorstep without any candy. He ended up eating a little bag of peanut M&M's (nummy nums) and a little lollipop then all the candy disappeared, weird. It was a fun night.

He got to go with his cool cousins.

The Distant Future

Robots are one of Ikes obsessions now and he loves the Robot Music Video from Flight of the Conchords .

cute Ian

almost laughing

Vote this years Halloween costume

Nerd

Emo

Cowboy

It's that time of year again. Vote for what Ike should be for Halloween. I'm sure next year he'll be choosing for himself so I can only torture him with my ideas a little longer. How he managed to capture the mood of each costume amazes me. For last years options go here.

Captain Underpants!

I picked up some spongebob underwear and a training potty today and thought I'd see if Ike was interested. Well he sure liked the underwear. He instinctively put a pair on his head, and two on his bottom. Little boys in underwear is about the cutest thing in the world. He kept them on for about an hour but never went pee. I'm not officially starting to potty train him yet, that would be too stressfull, we are just getting use to the idea of underwear and toilets, and having some fun while we are at it.

Ike Showing Off

I'm sorry but my kid is smart

I got an iPhone and there are a bunch of apps (applications) that teach Ike letters. Being that he's obsessed with my phone it's no wonder he's learned them so well.

Parental Warning: The word Fox may not sound like Fox. (and I may giggle about it)

Animal Sounds

I finally caught Ike on camera showing off some of his animal sounds.

The boys

These use to be the boys in my life. I lived with Rainey and the boys on and off since I moved to Utah and now it's been 5 years since they moved to California and I don't get to see them very often anymore which makes me sad. But I got to see them when I took Rainey to the airport on Monday and they got to meet their newest cousin Ian. Oh wait, Ian's not the newest, my sister Cate had a baby boy a few weeks after me. Can't wait for all the California cousins get to meet their new Utah addition.

Ok Mama, Let's Go

All he needs is my 20 pound purse and the baby and we are ready to go.

No no, That's baby's swing

Ike's new favorite hang out spot is Ian's swing. Technically it was Ike's to begin with but he knows it's the baby's now. Ike's become very aware of what belongs to who. Ryan was drinking out of a cup I usually use and Ike said 'no no that's momma's drink' took the cup and put it in the kitchen. He can even tell our phones apart, that's because he knows he's allowed to play with momma's phone and not dadda's phone. He's become obsessed with my phone actually which is good and bad. I've downloaded a bunch of educational applications on it so he's really learning his animals, colors, letters, numbers and sounds. I'm amazed at how well he can get around my iPhone, he can even pull up videos on Youtube that he likes. The bad thing is I have to keep my phone hidden most of the day and if I do use it to call someone he freaks out and tries to pull it out of my hands. He's even managed to answer it a few times, oops. BTW Sharon, I don't know if Ike called you or you called me yesterday, sorry.

My sweet boys

Ike's mostly been really sweet with Ian. I've been getting Ike to give Ian kisses every morning. He'll even point out animals to Ian "Look Ian a frog". Ok so sometimes he still pokes him but who can resist those cute chubby cheeks.
