Over Fall Break we made our first cut out cookies together. It was so much fun! The boys had fun pressing the cookie cutter into the dough and Mommy had fun trying to peel the cookie off the sticky mat. (I didn't use enough flour like you taught me, Mom.) Owen made the bat cookies and Chase the ghost cookies. They were a mess of flour and dough. Owen had fun watching the cookies bake in the oven and they enjoyed eating them afterward.

The other day I put Chase to bed and I told him I loved him. Then I asked him something I had never asked before, I said, "Do you love Mommy?" While sucking his thumb, he looked me in the eye, smiled with them and shook his head yes. My heart melted.
The next night I tried the same thing with Owen. I said, "Mommy loves you, do you love Mommy?" Owen looked me in the eye and then leaned in put his cheek to mine and hugged me. I'm pretty sure the answer was "yes". :) Language continues to expand daily. Chase now says "here Mommy", Owen and Chase call little people "guys" and Owen says "yeah". There are always a lot of weird words, Owen's favorite is "keekee". My favorite thing is when I ask Chase to say a word like "bug". I tell him to look at my face and I saw the word. He then says something like "dookaaa". I love it when it comes out nothing close to what I was trying to teach him! Owen doesn't usually try unless he knows he can do it so I don't get as many funny responses from him.
