Best buddies...

As many of you know, my sweet dad takes care of my kids while we are at work! He does such an amazing job with them, I couldn't ask for a better example for them in thier lives. My dad has had Eme since she was 3 months old, and did the same thing with Dax!

They have a daily routine which consists of breakfast, snacks, naps, and playtime. My dad has taught Eme many valuable things like how to eat EVERYTHING! He makes her oatmeal, cottage cheese and fruit, raisins, cheese, yogurt, meat, and one of her current favorites.. Noodles!


Dax is still pretty low maintanace and only requires milk, naps and diaper changes. However, my dad will always go the extra mile and play and entertain my little man.


Well, he never fails to amaze me, and the other day when I went to pick up the kids after work he went out to mow the lawn. I had been talking to my mom in the living room and realized I hadn't heard Eme in a few minutes so I went looking for her. Normally I wouldn't worry too much about her, but recently she has learned to unlock the dead bolt and get out of the house! So, I looked all over the house, and then in the front yard and heard the lawn mower in the back. So I headed to the back and when I got there, this is what I saw...

Cutest thing ever! My dad LOVES to mow his lawn, and for him to let little Em's hinder him a little and make him hold her hand was priceless. LOVE this pic of those two.

Thank you dad for all you do for our little family! We could not make it without you, mom, and Maile. And of course, Tina and Bri! I LOVE when you want to have Thrusday night sleepovers with her, almost as much as she LOVES to sleep with her Aunties!! We are so grateful for all the hands we have so close to us. THANK YOU!!
