Two halves of my heart!

I cannot get over how much these kids light up my life. I know I've said it before, but every day again, it blows my mind how much a human being can love someone. I've had moments where I figured that if I loved them anymore, I'd go into cardiac arrest. And some how, everyday I love them more than the day before. It's mind boggling and I can't tell you how much it's like walking around in heaven with two little angels by your side. Seeing them learn and accomplish new things and be so full of love for each other, for life, and for us... I never knew how humbling it would be to watch them experience life and to see them discover new things. I have no doubt that they are the reason I was put on this earth and they are the reason I will die a fulfilled human being.

Wyatt is my heart. He is such a loving little kid and loves giving us (and every other inanimate thing he likes) hugs and kisses while saying "Awwww." He loves his sister so much that he doesn't have a vocabulary of his own. Every single word he says, he's learned directly from Callie. In fact, he even calls her "Wy Wy" because that's her name for him!

Callie is equally obsessed with Wyatt though. If she's about to do something fun or eat a treat, she will call for him and wait to make sure he's there with her so they can do it together. I'm amazed at what great kids they are turning out to be! I have no idea how I got so lucky!

Yesterday, I was running a bath for the babes and getting their clothes ready to go some where. Callie had been bustling around me but then she quickly left. I was holding a pair of Wyatt's socks in one hand and a pair of Callie's in the other. The next thing I know, Callie comes running back into the bathroom with a pair of Wyatt's socks in one hand and a pair of hers in the other. I can't believe how much they copy us and try and learn from the things we do all day long. It's a such an enormous responsibility to be a parent and to try and set good examples. I just pray that I'm doing a good enough job to have deserved these two little blessings.

The camera is getting fixed so I don't have anything fun to share. Instead, I put a bunch of random pictures from our vacation that never made it on the blog. They have been talking about Mickey Mouse, "Hat" (Goofy), and "bi-bices" (princesses) ever since we got home. They ask to see pictures of them a couple times a day and they smile and laugh. It's great knowing that they obviously loved our time at Disney.
