Emmett and Glenn making faces

These videos were taken very recently, Emmett 30 months and Glenn 17 months. These two guys just love watching themselves on camera. I probably have hundreds of videos, very similar to the ones below, on my phone of these two. Here I picked a few of my favorites to share with you. The first part, Glenn's video, he is trying to steal my sunglasses and uses them as a prop for his show. lol The second part, Emmett's video, is with Emmett and I laying on the couch right before nap time. I was taping him when he swiped the phone from me to start filming himself. lol What a stinker. Enjoy!

It's been too long!

I can't believe I have neglected our blog for so long. Apologizes to family and friends who are checking here for updates. Life has really gotten away from us lately. If only we had some free time every now and then! ha
The boys are all doing very well. Dustin is almost done with fifth grade and has all A's. We are looking forward to another amazing soccer season with him. I think his first games start in another week (maybe two).
Emmett is... well... Emmett! He is ornery as all get out and the sweetest little man in the world. I was starting to get really worried about him not learning any words and not being able to pronounce them but then as soon as I made an appointment for a speech eval, he started talking like crazy. Of course! He can now pretty much repeat anything you say, if he wants to, and is speaking much clearer than ever before.  He is also starting to become quite the picky eater. Odd, I know, but we are definitely working on getting him out of this phase very quickly!
Glenn, our littlest munchkin is just as sweet as pie.  He does sleep through the night now, which is phenominal. The last video I posted here shows him right as he was learning walk. Well now he is running! He is keeping up with Emmett very well these days. The two of them are playing and interacting like never before. As a parent it is so heartwarming to watch them.  They love to play rockets together and pretend to blast off. Glenn is also talking pretty well. He says thank you, welcome, mom, dad, Dustin, cat, yes, no, juice, bath, bye, not nice (of course he learned that one really quick because I'm saying it to either he or Emmett every five minutes haha), and many others.  So I've rounded up a few pictures here to catch everyone up on their growth over the past few months. Enjoy!!

Glenn is officially a walker.  He has abandoned the crawl and now prefers to walk everywhere.  I can't believe these boys!  They have all been so quick to get moving and explore independently.  Dustin started walking at 91/2 mos and was exclusively walking by 12 mos. Emmett started at 10 1/2mos and was walking by 11 1/2 mos. Now Glenn who started at 9mos is a week away from being 11 mos and exclusively walking already.  WOW! Thats all I can say. 
Love them!
So here is a video of Glenn walking around this morning. Enjoy!
