Zoe's Top 10

1. Belly button-some kids have their blankies, Zoe has her belly button. We call it her sleepy button. As soon as she starts playing with it, we know it is bed time.


2. Pink puppy-Brandon's Mom gave Zoe this puppy when she was born and it has been in her bed ever since. It is so cute to see her going to bed playing with her belly button and holding her puppy around the neck.


3. Jumping on the bed...any bed-She loves to do seat drops and belly flops.


4. Shoes-she steals my shoes any chance she gets! Her favorite time to take my shoes is at church, which makes it a bit difficult for me.


5. Singing-She loves to sing in the car at the top of her lungs and at church even when no one else is singing.


6. Chocolate-she is her Mother's daughter.


7. Jacob-she and Jacob play so well together. Their favorite thing right now is to water the garden. Each of them have a spray bottle and it always ends in a water fight. They think it is absolutely hilarious.


8. Dogs, mainly Shooter-she loves to lay on him while he is sleeping. Depending on her mood, she also likes to scare him awake by jumping on him and laughing hysterically when he jumps up.


9. The baby-any time she jumps on me I tell her, "Be nice to the baby." She immediately kisses and hugs my belly. She tries to talk to the baby as well but I have no idea what she is saying.


10. Playing outside-it doesn't matter if she is dressed or not, she will run outside if the door is open. She ran outside one night after her bath because I left the door open when letting the dogs out. Thank goodness she didn't sit down in the grass.

These are in no particular order and there are a ton more but these are the first 10 things Brandon and I thought of.

Memorial Day Weekend

This weekend my cousin Jena and her family came down from New Jersey to visit. Our kids are only a few months apart and they had a great time together. Adam and Jacob were two peas in a pod. We had the two of them sleeping in the same room and it was hilarious to see how late they stayed up and what kind of stories they came up with. My favorite was the Scooby Doo Green Ghost was in the closet. Brandon and Jena went to check on them and Jacob had a terrified look on his face while Adam just kept saying, "Green ghost is in the closet!" All day the next day they ran around with their nerf guns trying to shoot the "green ghost."

On Saturday we went to Annapolis. We got to look at all the boats, eat ice cream and play at the park. Annapolis has so much to see I am excited to go back.

On Monday, we found an area on base that had lots of tanks and some room for the kids to run around. We then went home to celebrate Zoe's 2nd birthday.

Seriously two peas in a pod. Neither one of them like singing.

By the end of the weekend I think everyone was exhausted!

Batman!

Jacob loves wearing his old costumes! This past weekend everyone wanted to be Batman. When Zoe put on the mask, Jacob would run around with the her saying, "Come on Batman Girl, lets go save the day!" He even put the mask on Shooter. We also painted this weekend, just to explain the sheets.

Zoe wore a t-shirt around her neck for the cape.

Itsy Bitsy Spider

This is Zoe's favorite song. Any time we try to sing "I'm a little Tea Pot" she stops us and starts this one. I think her second favorite is "Ring Around the Rosie." She does a seat drop at the "we all fall down" part.
