It's June

I can't believe how fast time is going by. Beck is growing up too quickly, as is Paityn.
This past weekend we were lucky enough to have a date night while Granny watched the kidlets. Granny was holding Beck and made a little sniffle and Beck giggled, so she tried it again, and sure enough, he continued to giggle. Well, the next day we wanted to see this for ourselves, so Geoff decided rather than sniffle, he would snort. Every time Geoff would snort, Beck would giggle. It was the CUTEST thing, and I wish we had a video camera out at that very moment. We did get a few pictures of it, and he has a huge grin on his face! I am hoping he will do it again, so we can get it on video.
As Beck grows, so does our love for him. He is becoming more happy each day, and I hope the crying soon wears off, so we can see more of his HAPPY self!

As Paityn grows, she continues to torchure us with this stage of "before the terrible two's". She is constantly doing what she is told not to do. She climbs on and in EVERYTHING. I tell her to stay right by me, she runs away, I tell her to eat her food, she throws it, I tell her to be nice to Beck, she slaps him. The list could go on and on...
I also think she is crying out for attention, because she sees Beck getting so much of it. She won't walk down the stairs anymore, she wants me to carry her down. She throws a a tantrum if I don't! Possibly because I am always carrying Beck down the stairs, I don't know.
When will this horrid tantrum throwing, rule defying period be over?
Well, no matter what, we do love her so much. Despite all of the frustration, she does have a cute little personality that makes us melt, and I just need to cherish the happy moments with her.
