Weekend Whirlwind

We had a great weekend – we started by getting free chicken at Chick-Fil-A on Friday and ended playing in the sprinkler on Sunday.  Every day the kiddos do something new, funny, and or adorable that puts a smile on our face.  As tiring as it is to have two kids this young, I wouldn’t trade it – they are the best!

* Abby Ruth found Tom’s hat on Friday and began putting it on Zoe (who she has started calling Aubrey – my parents’ dog’s name).  Saturday morning she started chasing Zoe around with the hat saying, “Hat, hat, Aubrey need a hat!” 

* Besides calling Tripp “Doot Doot,” Abby has also begun calling him, “T.”  I didn’t think anything of this until a friend pointed out that she has no way of knowing that his name starts with T.  Apparently she picked up on it at some point when we were reading an alphabet book – it’s amazing what she hears and remembers!

* When I put Tripp down for a nap on Saturday, he cried for a while (this has been happening because he’s in “family withdrawal”).  The monitor was on and Abby Ruth went over to it and picked it up like a phone, put it to her ear and said, “Don’t cry!  Don’t cwry Doot Doot!”

* Tripp has discovered his mouth – or at least some of the noises he can make with it!  He makes “raspberries” all the time now, which makes it hard to tell his sister not to spit!

* While in the tub yesterday, Abby Ruth was splashing and Tripp was watching her intently… within moments, he started mimicking her and laughing – I LOVE having two kids!
