Ryder
RyRy, Roo, Roodaber


~Loves to shake his head, headbutt, and fling himself backward. Basically he is really hard to hold on to these days.
~Still sucks his thumb but now when he is tired he sucks his thumb and holds on to his sleeve.
~His fingernail on his thumb(that he sucks) is falling off and I am not really sure what to do about that.
~Will feed himself then he gets a little lazy and sits there and waits for me to put the rest in his mouth, little stinker.
~Seriously has the best laugh
~So curious will bang his head against something and then do it one more time just to make sure it does actually hurt.
~Loves to empty the contents of my purse but if my purse is not available the trashcan will do
~So skinny but eats double what Emma does
~Loves his new sippy and takes it like a champ
~Waves bye bye and hello
~Don't even get me started on that hair it's out of control
~Says a whole bunch but non of it really makes any sense
~Loves to stick his finger in Emma's snot
~Favorite toy is a lid from a bottle of Ragu
~Not so into cuddling or nursing anymore he is just so curious about everything and turning into such a little boy!




Emma
Emmers, Emmy



~Has turned into a mellow little thing
~Still loves to nurse more than anything
~Loves the lid to the Ragu bottle
~Seems to have escaped the two hair calics curse that my other children have. So maybe she will be the one Huss child with tamable hair
~Whispers as if she is talking to herself
~Is much better with strangers than she used to be
~Rocks herself to sleep. She gets on all fours and literally rocks back and forth until she falls asleep
~Loves to play and be chased

All in All






Are my babies seriously turning a year next month?! Their little personalities are starting to really shine and so fun to watch. They are always together it's rare that one takes off on their own. They "talk" to each other a lot in their own little baby babble and it's rather endearing. They both have serious obsessions for lids and fight over them all the time. Walking is just around the corner they have started standing on their own just no steps yet. We have baby crawling races all the time and Ryder has pretty much dominated, but Emma has won twice now. I am just so much enjoying my babies and cherishing all the moments I get with them. Next month they turn one and even though they wont remember and they could care less we are having a big shindig:) Two birthday parties in ONE!
