Weekly Update

You turned 6 months this past week! I can't believe you are already a half a year old! You are growing so fast and are super strong! You are getting better at crawling every day, albeit some how you learned how to crawl backwards, not forwards :), funny, funny kid!!




Amari turns 6 months!! 



This is the last Saturday Mike has to work! Yippee!! We are excited for him to have some more time off to a) be with the kids, b) have time for himself, and c) give Mommy a break :).  He has been so successful with AP the past year, far surpassing his goals and the numbers he has hit in previous selling years.  I am so proud of him and grateful for his hard work and dedication (working 6 days a week, traveling nearly every week, and working long hours) all to support our family and give us a better future.  

We are looking forward to him having this upcoming week off.  I have MANY plans in store (packing it all in :), including a weekday surprise getaway, just the two of us with a wonderful surprise in store.  

We are also looking forward to spending some time off with friends.  The company is paying for a few dinners together, a day at a water park, and a day on the lake with a boat and jet skis :).

End of October we will be going on the top 10 rep sales trip to The Dominican Republic.  We are excited for Mike's mom to finally be able to spend some time with her grandchildren while we get a nice, relaxing, much needed vacation together!

Mike will also be getting the full week of Thanksgiving off, and three weeks during Christmas/New Years off.  We are SOOO looking forward to all of these long, anticipated, well deserved breaks!!

The kids are growing like weeds! Every day Beckahm's vocabulary increases and he puts multiple sentences together.  Beckahm is starting to notice his brother more and more and see him as a play mate than an annoyance.  Beckahm's love for learning and reading books continues.  He also LOVES playing with his buddies on a daily/weekly basis.  As to be expected, we are always out and about doing fun things and keeping ourselves busy exploring this fascinating world we live in.  Life IS an adventure with two kids!

Amari turned 6 months this past week.  He is starting to get better at crawling (albeit backwards and turning in circles :).  He is going to be our wrestler or athlete; he is nothing but muscle, strong as an ox! Amari LOVES laughing with his brother and just being his smiley, calm, sweet self!  Funniest thing, today I took them to the pet store and he saw the mice running around on their wheel and he started busting up laughing.  This kid has such a great sense of humor.  He makes every one around him smile because he is always trying to get peoples attention by smiling at them.  His smile lights up his face and the entire world around him! I love this little munchkin!
