Busy weekend of firsts!

JT is making leaps and bounds in his development all of the sudden. He's repeating back almost everything, picking up more single independent words, and started saying his first real phrase... "no, mine"... The best thing is that he said love you for the first time! He repeats it back when you ask and isn't saying it independently but it is the sweetest thing ever! Especially since he blows you a kiss after!

He's starting to play with the baby dolls too! He loves to feed the baby!
And carry the baby in the baby carrier on his back!
Addy had a first this weekend too! She peeled an orange all by herself! She was very proud of herself and ate the whole thing! I never had really thought about letting her do things like peel her own orange but she asked if she could so I gave it to her and she did it without any help!
We went to a joint birthday party for Emme and Miles who both turned three! Fourteen kiddos sat nice for the picture! JT missed out on the picture since he left early to go to bed!
This weekend we took a trip to the zoo (even got in free!) with Alden and Logan. Addy asked a few weeks ago if we could go to the place with the animals with Alden. However the day of the zoo, she thought we were going to the Mall to see the animals instead...

Addy and Alden had a who can make the biggest smile contest! Both look pretty cheesy to me!

Ji'Robert took a little nappy!
And this was our attempt at a picture of all 4 of them!

Jared and I even got to have date night on Friday night! We went out to a movie and to dinner! Because of basketball, we hadn't had a date in over 6 months so it was nice to have a couple hours of just us time!
