This is going to sound silly but he has finally learned to blow kisses Melts my heart!
New words every day! His vocabulary amazes me sometimes. He is non-stop with pointing things out to me and labeling, it is constant throughout the day and I love it!
His newest (and funniest) phrase is "NO WAY!!!" instead of just a simple "No". I have no idea where he got it from, but it makes us laugh when he says it so seriously!
We have lots of potty progress, which is awesome! Just trying to introduce it at this point and I am glad to see him becoming more aware of bowel habits and more comfortable with the potty! I have no expectations of him as far as WHEN he will be PTd, just trying to gradually introduce it
In less than a month he will have his FIRST plane ride!!! So nervous about that!

Caleb is constantly picking up new words and phrases. My favorite is that he learned to ask for help! He's one to get easily frustrated and throw a fit if he can't get a lid off, gets a push toy stuck, can't get a shoe on etc etc. Now instead of immediately crying he shouts "Elp Elp" It's a small something but it's eliminated a ton of tantrums!
Teresa's also learning a lot of new words, including repeating $hit when I dropped something the other day. Daddy loves that she'll say airplane when she hears it and then goes looking for it out the window. (Maybe Max saying it in TN rubbed off on her!) She loves to say LOOK! and then point to things. She adores chickens!
I am amazed by Milan's manners - saying thank you, good bye is always followed by blowing kisses. His girlfriend at day care got a good bye kiss on the lips another day. Let's say her daddy was not quite sure how to react. I love my little heartbreaker!!!
Elaina has been learning tons of new words too and can repeat back almost any word I ask her to say (well, obviously not words like encyclopedia LOL) She follows directions so well and it amazes me how well she remembers things...for example she can sneak something out of a drawer of mine, play with it for a few hours and then I can say "You better put that back where you found it" and she'll immediately go put it back where she got it.
She's gotten so good at hopping and her version of skipping, trying to do somersaults, climbing ladders, going down the slide by herself...etc..she is a little dare devil for sure.
She's also obsessed with dancing. She's always danced to music but now she's gotten really good at imitating dance moves she sees on TV...it's so cute. I need to find her some DVDs specifically for that kind of thing since she enjoys it so much.
Oh and tomorrow will make TWO WEEKS since she's been weaned off the breast. Morning time feed was the last to go and probably the hardest on her but she's been a real champ about it. So proud of my big girl!!!

loves that he uses the sign for more when he wants something - whether it is more food or more flying time from daddy.... when he is done or when daddy is done throwing him up in the air and puts him down he will stand there and sign "more" and say more... so cute.

Kierson is just becoming more and more fun every single day. His vocabulary expands so much and I'm amazed at how much he really knows and how well he speaks.
His newest phrase right now is "Okaaaay" .. He draws it out and sounds so disappointed. Although, hes really not.
He has now started saying "Hug?" and then comes up to you and gives the biggest, sweetest hug! He is so loving and gentle!!!
Hudson hasn't had too much new lately. He is saying some more new words but nothing in the last day or two. I love how polite he is. He says this sweet little thank you EVERY time you do something for him. He says it to strangers too. The cutest is he even says it when he is mad at me. He will be crying or so upset about something and if I hug him or give him a sippy I get a really grouchy thank you!
Gavin is getting better and better at copying words (not that they are clear but at least he is trying)
He is getting so close to getting his pants on all by himself.... he can get his legs in but still can figure out how to get them pulled up
(i had the cutest video of it but my phone ran out of space and didnt save it
Elaina also blew her first bubbles today. Usually I blow them for her but today she asked for the wand, blew, and we have bubbles. She still needs to learn not to get it too close to her mouth but she sure was excited to make her own bubbles lol....don't know why I didn't let her try before.
Max said his first word chains last night! That was pretty neat! (Well, other than thank you, but I think he thinks that is one word ) He said "Let go!" when I was trying to take something form him and then he was playing peek a boo with my mom and said "I see you!"
Betsy's had a bit of a language explosion, so I've been thrilled! The little girl who REFUSED to say "mommy" is now saying it 8,000 times a day (and often calls out "my mommy! my mommy!"). She's getting close to 20 words, which for her is awesome! She now associates the bath with bubbles and will point to the bubble bath every time we go into the bathroom and yell out "bubbles!". She loves to find babies when we're out and knows that strollers and car seats are the places to find them. She's a pro on the iPad, is obsessed with buckles, and is starting to have fun playing with my make-up brushes and sunglasses (she has to wear them on top of her head like Mommy does). When we go to the park, she chases the birds so she can "hug" them.
