Well, after a few days of cold, W
intery weather, we have had a few nicer days with temperatures reaching the 50's...

Avery absolutely loves being outside (well, so does Hunter) but I just didn't remember Hunter loving it this much at her age! Her walking is so good, she is trying to start running & she has been stumbling a lot but that doesn't slow her down at all!

Here she is chasing her shadow
ha ha...

Hunter's news of the week: he was allowed to buy a few hermit crabs! (Exciting, huh? His grandma on his dad's side had given us their old tank Hunter used to have at there house) So as a family, we ventured to Pet Co and let Hunter decide which 3 little creatures he would be responsible for.
Here is their picture:

The 3 crabs are: far left, middle-right (colorful shell) & far right in the back corner. The rest are just extra shells. (One crab actually already changed from his original shell into one of ours so that was eventful). Other than that, they don't do much, but to Hunter & Avery they are just too fun!
Today, we were trying to name them & Hunter & Cody came up with "Speedy" for the one on the far left because that is the only one who ever does anything. And I asked Hunter, "Can I name one?" He responds with, "Sure, mom." I suggested to name the colorful one Mr. Krabs (from Spongebob) and Hunter tells me, "No, mama, that is lame!" Well, psh. I guess I'm already that embarrassing mom that says such embarrassing things. Ha ha oh boy...
Oh,boy. It starts with a few hermit crabs and the next thing you know it will be "Mom, can I have this pony? He's really little and needs someone to take care of him. Please, Mom, please?"
ReplyDeleteOr how 'bout this one: "Mom, I found this little pink pigglet running around the neighborhood and I'm sure he doesn't belong to anyone. Can we keep him? Please, Mom. Please?"
Just you wait! It's just starting!!!!
M- Your babies are so sweet. I could just snuggle Avery's cheeks until she squeals!
ReplyDeleteLove you guys!
Aunt Liz-
ReplyDeleteHe did this last year, too. He got himself a beta fish (at least they are all easy pets to take care of)!
I heard you are coming down for Claire's wedding? Hope to see you & the kids soon!!
Love,
