NIXON IS WALKING!!!! Sort of.... he has finally taken his first steps. He thinks its hilraious that he can stand on his own but he's still a bit leary of the walking part. He can take about 4 or 5 steps well, usually resorting to crawling around the 3 step mark. He is so shaky its adorable. He also popped his second tooth which caused us a few sleepless nights before appearing. He is the happiest one year old in the world.. greets each day with a smile.

Cohen has been loving the nice weather. Its back to the challenge of keeping him indoors for any length of time. He's done some horse riding lately. The other night at roping he actually rode all by himself. Dad's idea, not mom's. It didn't phase him at all... he prefers to do things on his own anyway. He is anxiously awaiting his birthday. He asks every few days if his birthday is here yet. He definitely gets how birthdays work....cake.....attention.....presents. What more could a 3 year old want.

Hope eveyone is well...enjoy the nice weather.

Well the big guy is 1!!!!! Nixon turned 1 on Mar 19th. We had a great birthday bash,with lots of family and friends. By the end of the day Nixon was the typical birthday boy, droopy diaper and cake from head to toe. He isn't walking yet but is soooo busy crawling and climbing. He fianlly popped out a tooth just before his birthday (not that lack of teeth has hindered his eating at all).


Big brother Cohen is doing really good. He is getting smarter by the day and is finally settled at the sitters. He is also potty trained (mostly). I thought that day would never come but his little cousin Reese showed him up and that was all it took. He will be starting swimming lessons next week and we've registered him for preschool in the fall.


The weather has finally turned so we are outside all the time now. Lots of yard = lots of yard work. We worked hard this past weekend and its starting to look pretty good already. We have lots of plans so we'll see how much gets done.


Thank you to the Frank crew for an awesome Easter. Love you guys!
Cohen's dancing skills have rubbed off on his brother (This is Cohen's #1 requested song so its on our blog a lot....sorry)
