Blakes Buddy

If anyone knows Blake you know that he is very shy and doesnt go to people very often or at all. But one person has won him over... Marlies ... Blake and Marlies are the best of buddies. He gets so excited to see her when she gets home. He will look out the window when he hears the garage door to see if its Marlies's car and he will holler and clap for her. Then they play all night and he jumps on her and talks for her. When we are shopping he will go to her and have her carry him around and wont to go to me. I would be offended if I wasnt already tired of carrying him already:) They are the best of buddies.

My Baby is 2!

My baby is 2 today. I can't believe how fast they grow up. I love this stage that Blake is in right now. He is so mischievious. He loves to do something naughty, laugh and run off. I love it, he is so cute. He loves to give tight hugs around my neck and give me kisses. Blake is also my very very shy boy. When attention is brought to him he will hide behind my leg and put his head down. He loves his daddy. As soon as Rami walks thru the door he is screaming for joy and running to him. He doesnt like to leave him while he is home. And as soon as it's time for Rami to go to work he gives him the tightest hug and wont let go. I have to peel his arms from Rami's neck. Blake loves to play with cars, loves to play with keys and try to lock and unlock doors with them, he loves anything electronic that has lots of buttons, and he loves to play with his sister when they are not fighting over something.

Sydney gets her ears pierced

sydney was so excited to finally be getting her ears pierced.
Rami was so nervous. He had been trying to talk Sydney out of getting it done for weeks. The girl who pierced Syd's ears said it was the first time she saw a dad come in.
Check out Syd's nervous tongue. The girls pierced the ears at the same time. And my lil girl didnt even cry. She was so proud of herself.
Sydney loves her earrings and reminds me every morning and night to put on the cleaner and twist her earrings. She also has to tell everyone that, "I just got my ears pierced, see" and proceeds to show them her her earrings. My lil girlie girl. She did so well. She's a lot stronger that I thought. Because I thought for sure she would cry and want to take them out.

SURPRISE

I just turned 30 on Aug 1st. It was a big birthday for me so I was bummed when Rami had to work till 8 that night. I kinda just had a day to myself. I was bummed we didnt get to do more. Well little did I know my darling husband had something in mind. The next day I went to a movie with Marlies and when I got home the house was full of all my friends. I was so surprised I had no idea what to say. It was awesome, the best birthday ever. I couldnt have imagined a better way to celebrate my 30th.
