A lot has happened with the kids over the past couple months. They are talking a lot, singing a lot, swimming, riding bikes, and just loving life for the most part. In the last month, Delson learned how to ride a bike WITHOUT training wheels and we are amazed! He was watching some big boys ride their bikes at the park without training wheels and from that moment on he really wanted to learn to ride without his. Over the course of about 3 weeks, Daddy slowly moved the training wheels up and Delson eventually learned to balance and now he can ride without them completely. He is amazing us constantly. Kambria also got a little tricycle and she is loving having her own little pink bike to ride.
The kids are really loving singing, especially primary songs. Delson has been singing "The Wise Man and the Foolish Man," "Follow the Prophet," "I'm So Glad When Daddy Comes Home," and "I Am a Child of God." And because he walks around singing these songs all the time, Kambria is picking them up too and she loves to sing them as well. It is fun to hear such young voices singing such precious songs. I LOVE to hear them sing!
Of course, there are other inappropriate things the kids are saying, and Alex and I are realizing more and more that we need to watch what we say. For instance, one day at church right in the middle of the sacrament, Delson yelled out, "Babe....shave your freaking beard." He tends to call Daddy "Babe" whenever he really wants to get his attention and apparently I need to stop saying "freaking." Delson also loves to talk about his penis at the most inappropriate times, which is usually when we are sitting at the dinner table with the missionaries for some reason. And Kambria has picked up on the word "penis" too. When Alex took them to swim lessons one day, he took the kids to the men's locker room to get dressed and apparently Kambria continued to look around the room and ask dad with a questioning voice, "Penis?" over and over. I'm so glad I wasn't there because I would have been SUPER embarrassed. Silly silly kiddos. They sure make us laugh!
As far as swim lessons go, both kids were able to be enrolled in the same class at our local racquetball club which made it super easy for me. They attended swim lessons everyday Monday through Thursday for a half an hour for 3 weeks and they loved it! They are doing a really great job swimming and I'm glad they are getting better acquainted with the water. They are growing and changing so fast and it is hard to believe that in less than 3 months we will be adding another little girl to the mix. They are excited to see and meet their little sister! Enjoy the pictures and videos!
