Oh goodness, there is so much that I just don't want to forget about these three!
So I get home the other day and the girls are in their highchairs eating yogurt with my dad and getting it all over themselves. I had just gone shopping so dad suggested that I hang out with the girls and he would unload the car. The girls finish and I put them down, they make a beeline to the garage door and another beeline out! Alex was wearing a t-shirt and pants, but Miss Sofi had on a t-shirt and pull-ups and messy adorable pigtails (do you see where this is going...) Yeah, so as Sofi runs...the Pull-up slips a bit. I didn't think much of it...until it's around her knees. (I burst out laughing) She pulls them up .... and they're around her knees again. (I look over at my dad and we are both laughing so hard that all we can do is make sure they don't run into the street! We can't speak) Oh! There they are around her ankles now! And my sweet thing just keeps pulling them up, but this time she's catching on - she holds them and runs around like that.
In the middle of it all, I'm dying to capture this on camera! I run inside and my phone is dead and the camera is nowhere to be found. But I did call my mom to come outside and witness this! Yeah - none of us could stop laughing. Though she chastised us for looking like a trashy family and not doing anything about it.
Oh yeah, forgot to mention that the girls didn't have shoes on. But boy were they all laughing!
Eventually I found her Pull-up on the kitchen floor. She gave up on it.
Apparently pull-ups only hold so much pee. Mommy fail!

There's a bit to catch up on that I don't want to forget....
They all got sick.
Yup, all three. But thankfully it wasn't a bad cold. Just the sniffles and congestion. Sofi got it first. Right at the end of February. (hold on, I lied, I think I got it first and passed it to them - bad mommy!) Alex decided she had to kiss everyone on the mouth around the time Sofi got it. Alex had the sniffles next. And, on Sunday March 3rd, we wake up to Patrick being sick, and the paranoid mother that I am, we decided to take him to urgent care to make sure that he was ok and to see what we needed to watch for. Apparently he had a slightly red (sore) throat and the congestion. So little man got his first cold and first trip to Urgent Care.
OMG is he just pure adorableness! (I know that's not a real word) He may be my son, but he's just such a happy and smiley baby. He tries to have conversations with you. He was totally hamming it up with the nurse at urgent care, and she was just loving him! I mean...who wouldn't! We also FINALLY took him out! Yes, it took this long, but with the whole world being sick, I wasn't willing to risk it. Yesterday (March 10th) we went out to the Original Pancake House for breakfast with the girls and all three grandparents. We did pretty well! Y&G took care of Sofi, hubs took care of Alex and I had Patrick. Alex needed to be taken outside, but it was after she had eaten - so not too bad. Little Miss Sofi was the epitome of a "big girl". She ate everything on her plate, wiped her mouth and the table and was just a total angle! Patrick was also very good. He got his bottle while we were waiting for our table, so he was pretty content in his car seat.
Oh, my little helper! Alex was so adamant about helping to make Patrick's bottle while we were waiting for our table. I got her to help me make it, and she did great. But in the end, we some how bumped the bottle and spilled half of it. Ooops! But my sweet girl is learning!
Then we headed to the park. Of course the girls didn't want to sit in the car, but we got them in! They ran around the park while Patrick got his bottle (this time a full one!). The girls got to play and meet some dogs and some humans. There was an adorable little boy named Riley, who was so stinking sweet! Since grandpa was alone with Alex and she wanted to go down the slide, he offered to catch her at the bottom. I think he was about 9 years old. I hope my kids are all that sweet and friendly and helpful!
We finally came home and the girls passed out. This was the last time they slept in the Nursery. (que sad mommy) Because after they woke up, I had a little photo shoot of them in their room for the last time. Boy is Sofi a total ham and model! I could take pictures of her forever! Then came miss Alex. She can't be bothered by you telling her what to do! As adorable as she is, she's one stubborn little one right now! But boy are they cute! And when Sofi sits and crosses her ankles - I die!
Eventually I had to stop the photos and let hubs and grandpa move the beds into the new room. Miss Sofi had to come and check out the scene with me, and things wouldn't be complete if she didn't help daddy and grandpa. Serious cuteness! Meanwhile, downstairs, Alex decided to climb on the arm of the sofa and pretend that it's a horse! Yup, all on her own. Oh, and later that night, she grabs the camera, gives it to my mom and asks her to take a picture of her while she's on the horse. What have I created!
Once the beds were in the room, Sofi decided to play in her crib. Seriously adorable! We sang "The Wheels on the Bus", "Ittsy Bittsy Spider", "Pat-a-Cake" and anything else I could think of. But her favorite right now is "The Wheels on the Bus" - she loves to roll her hands! So we repeat that one part of the song over and over!
They took their baths and while I was trying to get Sofi dressed on our bed, she spots Alex's toothbrush on the nightstand, proceeds to grab it, gets down from our bed, grabs my finger and makes me follow her into the bathroom. She stands in front of her toothbrush cup and points to the toothpaste then to the toothbrush (like "hey mom, you need to put toothpaste on this - don't you know!") So I oblige, and she walks out happy and pretty much lets me dress her.
Sigh...how did life ever get so perfect. I don't know what I would do without these three. Oh, and the outfit the little Mr wore on his first outing! To die for. Even hubby was dying of how cute he was!
And we have more words!!
Little Miss Alex actually says "Sofi" or "Shofi"!! Then Sofi points to herself! It's so cute! Neither of them have said Sofi until now - and I thought that her name would be spoken first since it's easier! They also try to say cucumber (in armenian) - boy do they eat alot of it! They try to say "orange" and the way they "roll" their O is so cute!!! And I die every time they say Emily, Ballerina or Hoy Lari. They're just too cute!!
