okay these were my first initial thoughts:
"look how much they both grew!"
"they are all (Bob-a-licious included) so adorable"
"Ugh...Matea still hates hats!"
"look how long Matea's hair got!"
"Why does Bob always wear basketball T-shirts...."
Now I actually chatted with Bob a little bit about the whole basketball T-shirt thing, and he is just being a good Daddy...I have blogged about a time in our lives when I searched Chapter's high and low for parenting books that (weren't lame) and would teach me how to deal with my busy boy...in a non-scream-y/non spank-y way, I found and still love "Parking Lot Rules and 75 other ideas for Raising Amazing Children" here is one post I did--check it out. ANYWAY lots of great ideas like: when your child asks you something, instead of saying "What?!?", respond with "Yes?" or "Yes love?"--I try to do this everyday, I did not succeed today when I was trying to chat with my little brother on the phone, and make Big Mack some waffles....but I try. So ANYWAY (my apologies this is becoming an epic post) Bob is not a big reader, but whenever I share something with him that I think we should do as parents, it's like he files it away and never forgets. One of the sections in the book talks alot about travelling as a group, making sure no one gets lost, how to stand out in the crowd ect. I once told him that the book said the best type of clothing to wear when going to a crowded place as a family is a jersey....because the names are meant to be read from far away and from up high...long story short...good Daddy, he is just trying to make sure we can always find him ♥
And my newest obsessions
