When I actually have time to do so something always goes wrong... ie tonight my internet is literally slower than molasses. I tried to upload a picture without editing, and it seriously took 10 minutes to get to 25% before I just exited it. At least I have all of Livy's months typed and ready. But seriously between either Livy waking up early from sleeps, Addie or Livy needing something, someone wanting to come see our house, or me just being busy being a mom of two, I don't have a second to spare. I realized I used to blog during Addie's naps, but she quit naps when Livy arrived and I can only force a nap on Sunday when she's up super early.
Sorry to be so whiny but I HATE being behind! I'm gonna have to get a babysitter for 2 days straight to get caught up! LOL!
In the meantime, I suppose I'll keep typing up milestones before I forget them and saving them to my ever growing list of drafts! :)
PS. Livy turned 11 months yesterday and has been paci free for a week. She's standing up from the ground without assistance and climbs stairs like a pro much too quickly! Her favorite pastimes are pulling toys out of the toy box until she can't reach anymore or getting into my jewelry box. If no one is watching and someone has left the bathroom open, she darts for the toilet and plays in the water... NASTY! When that becomes old she pulls the toilet paper off the roll if no one has caught her yet. She is into EVERYTHING and has 10 words now. She loves to talk on the phone but mostly just says "hi" over and over with the occasional "bye". Livy weighs 17.6 lbs (20th percentile). Livy hated the sand and ocean this year, but loved the pool and being tossed in the air while we were in the pool. Finally the last day of the beach she warmed up to the sand and crawled everywhere.
Addie is a money driven gal. You can get her to do almost anything with the offer of earning money. She saved her money for 2 months to buy a 19" horse she named "Racey". She has been really into these little mini Barbie's target has in the checkout lane and has saved enough money to buy 2 so far, and she's now saving for another one. Addie is a huge helper, makes her bed everyday without being asked, puts her clothes in the hamper, wipes her own bum finally, buckles her own seat belt, and has gotten pretty good with her number and letter recognition. She LOVES to help me clean. She's memorizing books and loves to sing primary songs. Her favorite is "I love to see the temple". She HATES to wake up early for church, is extremely jealous of Livy's nursings because she wants to cuddle with me, so after Livy nurses usually Addie gets to have some one on one cuddle time. I'm trying to get Addie excited for her new twin bed we'll be putting her in this week instead of the toddler bed, but she's not having it, even despite all the pink I'm offering her. Livy's more than outgrown the bassinet portion of the pack and play and so Addie's bed has to go back to the crib. She really is a sweet little girl, even if she is SUPER opinionated and bossy at times. I wonder where she gets that from??? ;) Addie weighs 27.8 lbs when stuffed to the brim. I think that placed her in 3rd percentile?
Night y'all!

I hear you. It takes so much time...especially when your computer is slow. That is my biggest pet peeve! I have been neglecting my family blog a lot lately and I feel so guilty about it.
Love the updates though! Good job Addie for saving her money!
It was so great to have you write on your blog. I can hardly believe Livy is already standing and getting into everything. Keep up the good work. I do appreciate reading your updates.
I am just happy you blogged! Waiting for pictures, ;D!
