I am in full birthday/holiday mode around here. Gracie is in her last month of being a 6 year old and Ramsey is almost 18 mths! Life is pretty good with these 2 right now and lots of FUN. Not a dull moment, EVER!
Ramsey:
He is just as sweet as he can be at 17 mths. He's started hugging/ kissing. Really for kissing when I ask for one he'll just walk up and stick his head out for me to kiss the top.We go through this whole thing before I leave for work every day with lots of kisses, hugs, and crying too. He is a TOTAL Momma's boy and does NOT like me to leave him :( Sad for me too. When I go to pick him up he is FULL of smiles and babbles lots, so happy to see me!

His favorites are the Itzy Spider and really any song with hand motions. I heard him humming something this weekend and I started humming too and it was the ABC's! So fun. When I started singing along he got the Biggest smile like he was so thrilled I knew the words too!! He is really into doing things himself, especially eating. He will throw a huge fit if I simply try and spoon something for him. He wants to do all by himself, even if he drops most! He's getting pretty close to running in his own way. He still waddles but he's gotten very fast. He follows me around the house all over and will be right on my tail! Sweet, sweet boy. I have notice his eyes are starting to change from the pretty blue. They are getting more gray-ish so they might end up being more like Gracie's green/gray eyes.
And this girl... how can it be? Her last month as a 6 year old. Actually just 10 days left?? Ahhhh! She's liking school but it hasn't been the easiest transition. She's in big 1st grade now which means more work ( a lot more work), more homework, switching classes, and new teachers. She's doing very well in school but she's had a lot of anxiety and attachment issues we are hoping is just a phase. Any day now she can come out of it and be back to normal, right?
She's playing Fall soccer and 3 other girls from 1st grade are on with her so it's fun. She LOVES math and I've already seen a big jump in her reading. Most of all she just loves us, all of us together, as she says. She's kinda a home body lately and doesn't want any of us going anywhere. She loves her brother to pieces and loves that he can chase her around! Sweet Gracie.
