OVER 2 MONTHS???

DISCLAIMER: I know i have a lot of typos and grammatical errors in my posts, but i am usually in a hurry and just type as i think, okie dokE?!

So, there once was a time where i could blog about 2 times per week. Now, i just went over 2 months without posting! The kids are doing GREAT! Kendel had tubes put in her ears, so she seems to be much happier and healthier. She is at the stage of learning about every word you say. For the longest time she was saying "peekel" for please, now she says peeeaas". She calls kitty cats "meows" and is so obsessed by them. In fact, if Nanny's kitty doesnt let her pet her, she will YELL at that thing, "MEOW! NO NO NO!" She also says "ewwwww" any time there is a bug nearby or some small little spec of dirt somewhere.

We went to Chicago and they have a srreet called Devon street where it is basically a little Indian town with shops and restaurants. So, Granma got her some bangels for the first time (these are little bracelets worn in India). Doesnt she look adorable in them? While in Chicagoe, We also went to an Indian wedding. Kendel is wearing the flowers that are very popular in India for weddings and such...i think they are jasmine ones? Anyway, so the kids totally had a blast dancing at the reception. The pic of tanner with his hand in his face is his version of a peace sign :-)....Anyway, Kendel is also obsessed with her Uncle BeeBo (d-bo). She pretty much feels that SHE is the love of HIS life....thats how Kendel thinks :-).

Kendel is sooo unpredictable. We just cannot figure her out. She is always ornery, but has really become more loving and affectionate in recent days. I love her smooches and her smooshy tooshy. Her and Tanner are SO close and love each other, which I truly thank God for!!!! She is still a daddy's girl, but does show more love to me than before....she is always picking fights with me "-). She will scream MOMMY! louder and louder till i say what? and then she will be all sweet and say "mommmmeeeee." End of conversation....love it. I could go on and on, but now its tanman's turn.

Tanner is doing great. he is still our Lover boy who shows constant affection and appreciation. He will stop what he is doing, run up to us and say "i love you mommy/daddy" along with big ol hug! We are mainly working on his whining and temper tantrums. Its up and down the hill with that one! As for talking he pretty much says most words the correct way, but he does still say chicken for kitchen, which i love ;-)...he is totally awesome at swimming with his life jacket as he completed his first round of swim lessons a month of so ago. We also got the kids one of those blue blow up pools--8 feet wide, so he is going under water and holding his breath :-)....He totally knows if he rubs my face, neck or hair, that he will win me over on most things :-) I am having to "woman-up" on that one! Oh, he is also becoming more of an obnoxious boy as he gets really hyper and silly. Today, i found him using his toothbrush between the wrong cheeks! grotty.... Oh, his new thing is FISHING with pawpaw. He LOVES to fish and has caught some catfish and bass in the pond.. He is still obsessed with his monster trucks, trains and dinos! He is not wearing diapers to bed any more. However, he still has some accidents, so we are working on that! All in all everyone is doing great! I will write more later, getting late!... ps Tanner and I planted our fist garden....rainbow indian corn, white pumpkins, lil pumpkins, onions, peppers and i think thats it!..getting huge!

Lil baby Kurut seems to be doing well. Dr appt tomorrow!
