Oh what fun this age is! Molly is 16 months old now, and she just seems to grow and learn every single day! She is in constant motion and chatters all the time. Her vocabulary grows by the minute, it seems. And it's so much fun!
Lately Molly's favorite thing to do it jump onto our bellies and try to leap off. Thankfully the first time she did it, Tim could see in her eyes she was about to jump and caught her. She laughed and laughed, and she's tried to do it over and over again. She loves our family play time each night, and she will just play her little heart out until it's bed time.
Molly is absolutely crazy about Ellie, too. They squeal with delight when they see each other and bear hug as if it's been ages since they last saw each other! I'm so thankful they get to grow up together and are so close. What a blessing!
One quick story that's the epitome of our life right now. The other night, Tim and I were headed up the stairs, and I said, "Watch out for the letter R." It was as normal a statement as "please pick up those shoes." One of Molly's magnets, the letter R, was on the step. And I didn't want him to trip on it! :) Yep, you know you have a toddler in the house when you have to watch out for such things as the letter R!
Lovin' life, that's what we are doing!

Lol, it's funny the things that come out of our mouths when small children are a part of our lives!
I'm loving this age too with Alivia and it's so funny to hear her babble as if she's making perfect sense! Her smile is contagious and some days Fernando says we should have just named her "Joy!"
Thanks for helping me realize that Liv is really 18 months! Having three kids in five years took a little piece of my brain, i tell ya!
I'm laughing about y'all having to watch out for the letter R.
And smiling because there is no doubt that you absolutely, positively love being a mama. Always refreshing to see a mama love it as much as I do.
oh, we have small toys, magnets, shoes, clothes all over the place! lol yes, it is how we know that kids live in the house!
What a sweet little girl! And I love that photo of her - it almost looks like it was captured in the 1950s or something - the way the colors look!
She's just so precious!!
