Time Flies with two kids

Here is our little 3 month old "Garritto." One day that name just came out of my mouth and it stuck, I don't know if I even like that nickname, but what's done is done. Other names he goes by are chunk a lunk and little cutie. Garrett has turned into such an easy going baby. All he does is eat, sleep and hang out with out complaints. The only time he fusses is if he is STARVING or super tired, but both of those are easily remedied. Garrett can not take his eyes off his big brother and I can tell he is already looking up to Parker. We love this little guy more and more everyday!

His little infectious smile is the best. Sometimes it seems he looks for reasons to smile. He has brought so much joy into our lives. If he is in the right mood we can even get him to be ticklish around his neck, armpits and legs. Honestly.. LOVE THIS KID!
Here is Parker attempting one of his "death defying tricks" I don't know if I like this one. He is also a pro at somersaults, spinning and doing animal imitations on the ground. Parker has also become WAY into singing. I probably hear him sing Twinkle Twinkle little star about 50 times a day especially while he is trying to fall asleep in his room and most of the time it morphs into the ABC's because they are the same tune. For instance..."A B C D E "best" G, how I wonder what you are" Yes... you did read the word "best" in there, for some reason he doesn't say "f" , its "best."
I know this is an awkward angle but I had to share it. I was taking a shower and told Brad to watch the kids. When I got out this is what I found on our bed. Brad fell asleep snuggling with the boys. Notice, the kids managed to stay awake. Brad sure does love his naps.

Okay, I know I already left my comment. But I just have to say that there is something about Garrett that reminds me of Olivia. Am I crazy? Do you see it? Maybe its just me.
