Taleb

My sister, her husband, and my 3 year old nephew came for a few days this week. BWK still will not correctly pronounce his C's, so cousin Caleb is Taleb. It's really cute, but we are trying to work with him to say them correctly. B and Caleb had a great time visiting this week. It makes me so sad that they are not closer to us. They act so much like brothers. They would play together nicely, then all of the sudden they would be chasing each other around the house hitting and "rasling" with each other. BWK likes to wrestle much more than Caleb, so things were pretty interesting. Caleb is getting so big. He's so handsome and polite! (Of course, I'm a very proud aunt!) We all ate together for B's birthday Thursday night before they left and had so much fun.

We had BWK's second birthday party this weekend.... We are still doing just family~ We talked about having it at our church so that his friends could be there too, but I still think he's a little young for that, and the church was booked for the night we were having it. We thought we were having it when my sister could be here, but they had to leave early to make it to their Sat. night church service. BWK got so many presents that it looked like Christmas morning at my house. I really want to go through his old toys and donate some of them to charity. He's got so much more than he needs or can play with! We have been so blessed with friends and family that love him and pray for him each day. It has been a great weekend. I will post pictures later. My camera was not working properly that night, so I hope that my family got some good ones for me!

Weekend

We loved the beach! No schedules, no alarm clocks, no work... Ahhh, life was grand! We had a great weekend spending time together, relaxing, and playing in the ocean. BWK had a great time building sand castles on the beach. He met a "buddy" who shared his middle name and even wore the same swim trunks B did! How cute! Everytime B saw Walker, he said "my buddy?"... We laughed so hard!

BWK is talking so much. He's counting to ten, using sentences to speak, coloring, and has moved up from the nursery at church. He's now in the 2 yr. old Sunday School class and brought home a coloring sheet and a lesson page today! I kept it to put it in his baby book. I have been trying to scrapbook this journey, but it's just so hard to keep up! I have three pages, and that was just for the first week of his life! One week down, one hundred and three to go...... Whew! So many precious memories we've made these past two years. Well, he's bringing me my shoes and asking me to "put dem onnnnnn, mommy!" so I better run and enjoy this sunshine while it lasts! I hope everyone has a great week...
