Or goobers, kiddos, bambinos, etc. Whatever my name of the week is for my two favorite little people in the world. Since most of my last updates have been about their latest doctor check-ups, I thought I'd do an update on everything else in their lives.
I'll start with my beautiful baby girl, Eve. Girlfriend is a star in the making! Now Eve has always had a stand-out personality, but lately she is just such a trip. Chris, myself, Eve, and Cole go outside most afternoons/evenings to the backyard to play basketball and run around. Eve, however, has something else in mind. She sprints straight for the base of our basketball hoop, which is maybe a foot tall and a 4 x 4 foot square. She jumps right onto it, declares it her "stage", and will spend most of the time we are outside singing and performing for us and two turtle lawn figurines (scary!) left by the previous homeowner. She also has a crazy knack for quoting movie lines at the most random times, a skill I'm sure she has picked up from her daddy! She is just a such a smart little girl. For as tough and feisty as she is, Eve is also such a sweetheart. She tells us multiple times a day how much she loves us, how we are her best friends, and how happy she is.
Now for my handsome little guy, Cole. For the first year of his life, he was so laid-back and reserved that I wondered how he'd feel with such a loud and outgoing older sister. No worries there anymore! Cole has totally come out of his shell these past few months and is quite the little comedian. He will do absolutely anything to get a laugh out of us (particularly Eve!). And once he gets us going, he will not stop! Eve and Cole are finally starting to become more of playmates instead of enemies...the fighting between them is becoming less and less. Now we are just waiting for him to start talking. Well, I should clarify...he does "talk", we just can't quite understand 95% of what he is saying...LOL. He is still extremely affectionate and loves giving hugs and kisses. He is my little mama's boy and I hope it stays that way!
