I wanna take a picture, fold it in my pocket, and never let it fade away....
of Zoe and Hayden growing up.
I mean, seriously... Hayden will be in middle school next year! I don't even know what else to say about that.... except ...attitude, girls, phones, independence, going to school on his own (he's been coming with me since kindergarten!)...
And Zoe, is a laugh a minute. She and Hayden are complete opposites. Hayden is very reserved and conservative in his physical activities. Zoe would go skydiving today if we let her... then ask to do it again.
Things that make me go hmm... about Hayden.
1. He can program our home phones with different rings and label them.
2. He has wi-fi on his own CELL phone and actually knows what that means.
3. He constantly reads! - he hides in the bathroom to read and claims "I'm pooping!" so we don't check on him.... hides under his covers with a light and a book after going to bed.... and is actually reading Ink Heart, which in my opinion was an impossibly difficult book to get into.
4. He can be the best big brother ever, and possibly even a bigger antogonist also.
5. He has a Facebook page.
6. Still loves to have Jonathan snuggle with him at bedtime.
And "hmmm" thoughts about Zoe.
1. She cuts her waffles with scissors. More to come on what else she cuts with scissors....
2. When asked more than once to do something, she says, "Ok! Geez, Mom!"
3. Loves to wrestle, with her shirt off.
4. Loves to dress up in princess clothes, then wear them to her sitter's.
5. Can write her name, and knows most letters and words associated with them.
6. Loves to snuggle at bedtime... but never at nap time.
