I think it's safe to say...

that Sebastian is officially potty trained! No more diapers for my big boy and I am SO proud of him. He even makes it through the entire night without an accident. Did I mention how proud I am of him??
We started off last Monday, after changing his last ginormous poop, I had had it. So we went naked and it worked out really well. On Wednesday we started wearing underwear and it didn't go as good. So I went out and bought o bunch of potty prizes. Everytime he would go on the potty he would get a prize! Let me tell you, that definately did the trick (on and the fun underwear too).
He now goes on the potty on his own (no more prizes needed) and love to show off his cool underpants -lol.

Summer fun!

A few days ago, our friends Marissa, Hayze and Sawyer invited us to their home for a pool and ice cream party. The kids had a total blast and Sebastian had more fun eating crackers than he did eating ice cream (that's ok, I ate his share :) ).

I just can't get enough....

of Nate! He is seriously such a sweet sweet baby. He smiles all day long and is so content just hanging around in his bouncer or swing. We are truely blessed.
I must admit though, that I am having the baby itch AGAIN! I think it's because they are both growing so fast.
Sebastian talks to us like a big boy and Nate is already wearing 12 month clothing!!! It's bittersweet watching your children grow. While I can't wait to see what they grow up to be, I know i will be sad to not have my little boys that love and want to cuddle all the time.

Eric thinks that because of the way I feel, we'll always have a baby in the house! If I hadn't had c-sections and had all the money in the world, I would have babies everyday!
Anyhow, here are a few pictures of Nathaniel. I copied the backdrop idea from a fellow photographer and I absolutely love the end result.

Sebastian's new favorite book.

Sebastian has a new favorite book! He carries it everywhere we go and wants us to read it to him all the time, especially at bed time...wanna know what book??? Well, I am sure you would never guess it : THE BIBLE! Isn't that frickin adorable??

Eric reads his Bible every night so I am sure it has to do with his " I-want-to-do-everything-like-daddy" phase but still it's too flippin cute! When I ask him what the Bible says, his response usually sounds like this : "Jesus (prounounced Zezus) loves God and God loves Jesus...THE END!" I just love love love it!

Hey, who knows he might end up a priest or pastor one day?

10 things to know (and love) about Nathaniel.

I came across this post on my friend Amy's blog and thaught it was a GREAT idea... So,in honor of Nathaniel's 5 month birthday (where on earth does time go??) here is a list of 10 things to know (and love) about my baby boy.



1. Happy baby. Nathan is the sweetest little boy. He is always smiling. He rarely cries even when he is starving. When he wakes in the morning, he just lays in his bed and "talks" to his mobile.


2. Mr. Piggy. Nate LOVES to eat, and it shows. He has got the fatest, chunkiest thighs EVER so chubby that I have to make sure to clean the inside of his rolls everyday and put diaper cream in them or else they become super red and irritated.
He weighs about 21 lbs already too!




















3. Yummy food. On his 5 month birthday we started Nate on cereal and he absolutely loved it. Sebastian even thought it was hilarious and fed him. He has now also tasted bananas and I cannot shove it in his mouth fast enough!
























4. Peek-a-boo. He lovessssssss it when we play peek-a-boo with him. It just cracks him up. He has got the most contagious laugh ever.

5. Just like daddy. While Sebastian looks alot like me as a child, Nate looks SO much like his daddy (Eric adores hearing it from everyone). I hope he also gets his brains it would save us a load on college tuition. ;)

6. Belle. In the past few weeks,Nathaniel has been completly fascinated by Belle, our puppy. When she is in the room, nothing else matters. He follows her every move. It's adorable.

7. Teething. I think Nate has started teething. I don't think his teeth are ready to pop out but he won't stop chewing on everything he can get him hands on.


8. Jump, baby jump! Nate could spend the entire day in the Jumperoo if we let him. He jumps so much and squeels that he usually passes out after going in it for a bit. I don't remember Sebastian loving it so early on, but am sure glad we kept it around for him.


9. Scooting and rolling. While on tummy time, Nate has started to scoot around(not crawling) but he usually ends up in a weird position in a different plae that we set him down in. He is also already rolling from back to tummy and from tummy to back.


10. Love. Since his birth, Nathan has brought so much love into this family. I can't wait to see what his caracter shpes up to be and how much alike (or different) he will be from his brother. We adore him more than we will ever be able to express.

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all the daddies I know. Especially to my dad (mon papa cheri), My grand-father (Babiche) and my wonderful husband, Eric.

Our plans for today are just to bum around and make sure Eric gets to eat and do whatever he wants! :)

Here is the present I made for him. I saw the idea somewhere but can't remember where (please leave a comment for me if you know where I got it from). I had it mounted on a 20X10 board and it came out PERFECT!! Eric absolutely loved loved loved it and I am so glad he did!

He Found his thumb!!!

Nate is constantly trying to put things in his mouth. Not sure if it's teething already or what it really is but it's funny looking at him trying to "catch" his fingers.
Today, he caught his thumb and I ran to get the camera hoping he'd keep it in there long enough for me to snap a picture and he did!!

Chuck E Cheese

Today we met up with Alison and Ty at Chuck E Cheese. It was both Ty's and Nathan's first time there. Nathan of course, didn't care much for where we were but Ty sure had a blast!

Here are some [crappy quality] pictures of the kids!

Grabbing his feet!

Just on picture...because I've been slacking! Isn't he the cutest??

Doing new things everyday!

Gosh, if you think time flies by wait until you have kids... I cannot believe how fast my children are growing.
Sebastian has an amazing vocabulary and says things that just crack me up.
Nate is grabbing at his feet and tryingto blow bubbles now! I LOVE IT!

Oh and I just figured out how to add videos to my blog (duh!) so be prepared to see lots more of the kids :)

Just for fun

Sebastian was napping and Nate wasn't so I thought I'd have some fun and practice my photography on Nate....once again!
Isn't he adorable??? I just love him to pieces!!

Merci Tatine!!

My aunt sent the boys a few outfits so I took a photo of the boys in one of them to show her how much we appreciate the gifts :)

Merci Tatine!!

Bounce,baby bounce....
