Sleep tight...PLEASE

We finally got a bunk bed for the girls:)  Found it at a garage sale for 25 dollars!  CRAZY!!  Pono sanded it down and revarnished it, and now it is good as new.  So today Ileana is sleeping in her own bed for the first time EVER. She has always slept with us.  I am sure I will have sleepless nights for the next week, but for the first time in 10 YEARS there will be no children in our bed.  WOW!  INSANE!!  I know.  She is really excited.  Okay, I am really excited. She has been doing somersaults on her bed all day.  Hence, the messy hair...

 We went to the store and picked out sheets for the bed.  She of course wanted pink.  She is ridiculously obsessed.

 This is what we are hoping...wait, praying for tonight!  Good night my elf.

Growing Too Fast

Ikaia is now 8 months!!!  He is everywhere and into everything!  He climbs the stairs at a rapid pace, and is starting to cruise the furniture.  He is even starting to let go and stand momentarily.    He says momma, dada, yay (especially when sister comes to take him outside )and hi, and starts dancing to any beat given to him.  He looks chuncky in these photos, but it is only because the dang outfit is to small and tight.  He is just really long.  I can't believe he is already this old.  I feel like it has only been 5 months.  I love his tight hugs, whenever he slows down enough to give them.  Usually right when he wakes up. He finally ate people food without gagging on the taste.  He had little pieces of bread, and loved it.  He still hates rice....and is quite picky about veggies. Whenever we say," So big."  He puts his hand together and raises them above his head.  We love this little bugger, he is full of laughs and fun!
