"Mama"

The boys have recently found a magical word that will stop Mommy in her tracks and turn all attention to them. I am now hearing "Mama!!!" many many times during the day, and with each word they giggle and smile like they have their own little secret. :) They have been able to say "Mama" for quite some time now, but I think it just dawned on them how much power this one word held. Dylan is now in the habit of saying "Mama!".....Erin: "Yes honey?"......Dylan "HI!". He thinks he is hilarious. And Mom falls for it every time! :)
Both boys also LOVE dancing, and everyday they get so excited when the Ellen Show comes on so they can dance with her. They also dance every time they hear music, no matter what the tune is. It could be a song from a commercial on the television, to hymn music from church...not matter what it is, they will dance. These boys love to move!


Some other favorites right now:
-Saying "cheese" whenever they see a camera
-Clapping and stomping their feet to "If you're happy and you know it"
-Cucumbers and avocados
-Chocolate (of course)
-Tutu and Grammy (their Grandmas)
-Linnet and Carter from church :)
-And of course, Veggie Tales


Teage and I are so grateful to be the parents of such special boys. We love them tremendously, and are thankful to have them in our lives.

they are to sweet I love that Dylan says Mama, Hi what a little cutie. I am sure they have been fun all along but what a fun age they are at now, You know what they want (sometimes too much:) and they have their own little personalities. Can't wait to see you sometime and visit with you and them.

I love that word don't you?! I miss those days of little tiny voices saying mama. Now I've got somewhat bossy voices saying Mom. Mom is not so much my favorite word, like mama and mommy are. Your family is darling! Good for you enjoying every minute, it goes so fast!
