Princess Sassy Pants
So another common word besides "cheese" that Parker says is....you guessed it! No! But it's really cute the way she says it...kinda puffs out her lips into an o shape. I'm sure it won't be cute much longer, but it is right now.

Wordless Wednesday (Is it really Wednesday?) {We're home}
and look who's more mobile than when we left....
Make video montages at www.OneTrueMedia.com
It's jerky and uncoordinated and I can't help but laugh when I see her really moving cause she's pretty fast.

Our week in iPhone pics and videos
A couple of Fridays ago Lane and I attended Imagination Movers with friends. It's his ABSOLUTE FAVORITE thing on TV for the past couple of months. I was lucky enough to get tickets through Mac Kid and he was so excited to see them. He still talks about it.
It was a concert for toddlers. The Movers came down into the crowd and all the kids started running into the aisles...it was like a baby mosh pit. LOL! I must say though this was the best "concert" I've been to since attending all of these pint-sized shows! Very entertaining.
I sent these movies to Matt during the concert. We know the songs and I didn't want him to feel left out, although he happily gave up his ticket to my friend and her son. :-)
The day after that was move-in day. We moved most of our small stuff and all of our boxes. The movers came on Wednesday and moved our furniture. We've had some very long and exhausting days. It's now Monday and we're just finally starting to really get settled. We don't have cable or Internet, although somehow, we have Internet right now, hence the blogging! We're not having TV while we are here. Summer TV is horrible and I plan on being active and reading and swimming and doing crafts and NOT turning on the TV every night like we normally do!
Here's a tour of the apt. by Lane.
We've made lots of trips to Lowes.
Took some time out to swim in the pool! The heat has been brutal, but nothing unusual than your typical SC summer and making trips back and forth back and forth back and forth to our old house. The kids have been amazing through it all. Poor babies! But the end is definitely in sight and now we are going to spend our Memorial Day relaxing at the pool!

Last Year, This Year
I had to check back at last year's Mother's Day. Lane so little, me, not so little. :-) But I loved that little belly. And who would have thought this little sweet and spunky girl was inside:
I spent a nice morning sandwiched between my 2 babies in bed, eating waffles and bacon and eggs and drinking bloody mary's (verdicts out on whether or not they had alcohol) thanks to Daddy! When we got in bed Sunday night there were crumbs everywhere, but I wouldn't have it any other way! Read more...

Flashback Friday
Besides for Lane waking up every morning and asking to go to Tennessee, we haven't been up to a whole lot. The alternator went out in our car so I've been running (literally running) everywhere. Like to get Lane to school, meet for playdates, etc. My double stroller, which I wasn't sure if I could use as a double jogger, has been worth it's weight in gold for the past 2 days! And it does act as a double jogger and I love it! I've actually kind of enjoyed my time car-less....sort of. My friend yesterday joked with me and claimed that I just live downtown and sleep under the bridge. Haha! I had that stroller packed with my laptop, a picnic lunch and all the necessities. Did I mention I LOVE that thing!
We had 2 days of being car-less and today I am sore and ready to have the luxury of a motor vehicle on 4 wheels.
Today's post is flashing back to 2 weeks ago when a certain baby girl found her groove! And she can groove, let me tell you. She sometimes doesn't even need music...just the command to dance!
And those moving boxes? They are pretty much ALL over our house.
Parker also started waving, but I can't seem to get that on video! Sometime soon hopefully! Read more...

Just when you think
he isn't really listening...you stop at random parts in the book and he starts filling in the words. This actually happened on a total fluke and made me LOL so I had to get it on video.
I guess I better start reading ALL of the words on ALL of the pages of ALL of the books....ALL of the time. Read more...

From the mouth of Lane
"I was like serious, mom" I mean, I was like, what?!"
Yes he said this after picking him up from the playroom at the gym. It was even complete with hand and head movements. Hilarious!
I had him say it again so I could record it. Not the full effect, bu you get the idea!
(I don't even know if I want to admit this one!) "Did you get the beers?"
This was after he spent the weekend with Matt and Matt watching basketball games. He must have heard one of them say that.
"I love you too." After I put my forehead to his forehead right before he went down for a nap. So cute, cause I didn't say it, but my actions must have told him how I was feeling. :-)
"I waked up. I had good nap." Read more...

Tiiiimmmmbbbeeerrr!
This video was taken a few weeks ago and totally showcases Parker's personality! She nose-dives into the couch, her brother laughs at her and then she smiles and waits there until someone picks her up!

Christmas Morning in SC
I'm still in my PJ's. I spent the rest of the day cleaning and PACKING. Ay-yi-yi we're going to need a U-HAUL. It seems quite impossible to pack for a family of 4 for an 11 day trip...but I'm getting there...we may just have to strap Harley to the roof...kidding!

Christmas Carols by Lane
Apparently, Baby Jesus is coming all the way to town. I'm thinking he combined all of his songs he learned into one. But just a hunch...I can't wait to find out at his Happy Birthday Jesus Party next Wednesday at school. Don't worry I'll be sure to record as not to leave you hanging. :-)
(sorry for my laughter, I just could really not hold back)

No gurlz ayyowed
This was last week after Matt got home from being gone all week. They were having a heart-to-heart in none other than....the BATHROOM! He was definitely missing his Daddy!
PS-no Daddies were going to the bathroom during the making of this video. :-) Read more...

Tiny Egg and POP!
He is just too cute for words. He is becoming quite the little man and I feel like I haven't been able to keep up documenting what he's like at 2 years, 4 months, but at least I've been able to document with video.
This happened this morning. I walked out of the room for a second and came back to find him reading to his sis.

Macaroni Mom in the Media!
Last Wednesday I did an interview with Fox Carolina reporter Lauren Elise and they aired it last night in the Upstate! It can be found on their website here.
I fell asleep before it came on so I didn't watch it last night, but we DVR'd it and I watched it this morning....and this was Lane's reaction when I showed him. :-)

"Parkur? read book? ok"
Lane loves when I put Parker in his bed. I often bring her up to get him in the morning and he gets excited to see his sister! He always says "put her down right here, momma!"

Weekend mornings
This weekend we took full advantage of the relaxation of the morning hours. Lane sleeps until a pretty decent hour so Matt and I took advantage of having Parker all to ourselves. Our biggest challenge with her is keeping her happy while we wait 30 minutes for her Prevacid to digest. As you can imagine, she is pretty hungry in the mornings when she wakes up so making her wait an extra 30 minutes is not always easy. This weekend though, she handled it pretty well.
Maybe it was the music choices that Matt picked. He's brainwashing her at a young age. (It's the Illini Alma Mater song and War Chant.)
I was able to get some good smiles before she almost melted down from the hunger! (I am apparently OUT of practice and forgot how to shoot an IN-focus picture.)
Do you love how she smiles with her right eye! :-) And she's got a dimple on that side as well.
And then it was time to get big brother up. He opted for some french toast sticks for breakfast and helped me make banana nut muffins.
After that, I snuck off to Kohl's for the THIRD time that weekend and then to the grocery store leaving Daddy at home with the babies. It's funny how going to the grocery store alone seems like a nice retreat! But these days, I'll take any alone time I can get! Read more...

Videos of a day in the McLife
I started going through my FLIP and saving videos from way back when. I found this funny one of Lane that I am glad I did not delete. It's just his size and he knows exactly how to use it. :-)
Lane's been counting to 12 for about 6 months now, but I've never had a chance to record it. He can now count to 14. But he sometimes skips 10. And I could do without the half-chewed up chicken in his mouth, but he was in the mood so I had to tape it. :-)
Any Sid fans out there? I found a "Sid" microphone at Target. When he's handing me the microphone at the end he's saying rug time. If you don't watch Sid, you have no idea what I'm talking about.
Lane says "Hi, pretty girl" in the beginning of this video, but it's hard to hear. I have been trying to get that on tape because it's so cute when he says it!
