Just a Quickie
I only have a couple minutes so this will be quick. We had my sister, her boyfriend and my two year old niece visit last week. It was nice. We took the kids and had pictures taken (hence the new slide show). Laynie and her cousin played, fought, then played some more. It was comical to see how Laynie interacted with a child younger then her. Last time they were together my niece was a target for my darling Dalaynie. Laynie would walk up and smack her out without provocation. I'm really thankful we weren't blessed with a 15 month age difference in our children. I'd be in a loony bin, for sure!

Been Lazy
It's been a while since my last post. I wish I could say it's because I've been so busy I haven't had time to do so but this isn't the case. I've just been lazy...
We had good holidays, Laynie still says "HAPPY HOLIDAYS" every now and then out of the blue. We took her to the beach for the first time. She had a BLAST! I was trying to get pictures but it was hard because she was constantly on the go.
Not much is new here... maybe that's the real reason I haven't been posting.. NOT!
Nick is cutting teeth. Somehow I thought we'd be spared a few more months considering his preemie status and the fact that Laynie didn't get her first until after she was 8 months. No such luck. The kid is a drooling, teething machine. He reminds me so much of Laynie. He's just a happy kid. He has my pasty white complexion and the jury is still out on his eye color. Sometimes they look like they're going to turn brown and others they look deep blue/grey.
Oh... I came on because I've had requests for pictures... The ones of Laynie are from a couple days ago. I went to check on her at nap time. Needless to say she was sleeping on the floor in one sleeping bag with her "girls" sleeping in the other one. I asked what she was doing when she woke up and she said "We were camping under the stars". We went to the Science Museum a few weeks ago. She was so good so we bought her some stars that glow in the dark for her ceiling. She loves them! OH.. here's a funny story about the science museum. I had free tickets for the IMAX theater. The only movie we had the option of watching (we're not morning people) was about the human body. I asked if it'd be appropriate for a 3 year old and was told yes. It was actually very intersting and Laynie seemed to like it. One part showed a baby born.. not the full on shot of the birth but when the baby was lifted up all goopy. We were eating breakfast a couple days after going and the conversation went like this:
L: Mom, Do you remember when Dominick came out of your belly?
M: Yes, why?
L: Did they clean him off?
M: Yesssss, whyyyy?
L: I was just wondering.
That was that.....
The pictures of Dominick are in his jumper, which he loves. He was jumping away a couple days ago. I went in my room to put something away and came out 2 minutes later to find him sleeping. It happened so fast the jumper was still slightly bouncing. I had to look close to confirm he was ASLEEP!
That's all for now...
