Thanksgiving in LR

We had such a great time in Little Rock over Thanksgiving. The trip was interesting but survivable. First class is the way to go with young kids I think. You get such great help to warm a bottle or hold a baby so you can go to the bathroom so that was really nice. We didn't get to enjoy the true excitment of first class (aka drinking and eating) but regardless it went decently. We got to see everyone while we were there, nana and papop, Aunt KK and CC, Uncle Michael and Paul and all the aunts, uncles and cousins (except Cara). Syd had a great time with her cousins. Her and Win were absolutely adorable together and Glynn and Sean took great care of both of the kids and played so great with them. It was sad to leave, made me of course wish we could all be closer so the kids could grow up together. Here are some pics of the trip.

Hanging out with the digi player on the plane.

New Moon - That's right

Ok so had to post this. It's a bit blurry cause it was taken on a cell phone but here are the ladies that attended the 11/20 premeire of New Moon. All addicted and pretty split down the middle for Jacob vs Edward. I'm team Edward in case you were wondering haha. We had so much fun and if you look closely we all have Twi-gear on. That's right and proud of it!!! Went to see it with mom and Courtney in Little Rock again and hopefully will have an excuse for another time :) I can't handle it. You can see there were tons of people there it was soo insane. We went to a theater that was 21 and over so those d*mn tweens didn't ruin it for the Twi-moms! :) I know I'm crazy but had to share.....

Syd and Ty morning snuggles!!

November

It was a great November.  Scott and I got our first night away from the little man and headed up to a casino resort for a pharmacy convention.  It was nice to get away and SLEEP!!!  Little Ty is still loving waking us up during the night.  I think he kept gma and gpa on their toes for sure.  The next weekend we headed down to Longview to stay with gma and gpa and it was a nice trip.  I try so hard to pack minimally but it's literally impossible.  Needless to say the car was packed to the rim with stuff we "needed."  :)  And prior to leaving for Little Rock we had our annual friends Thanksgiving dinner together at Chad and Lanei's house.  I think it's maybe the 10 annual but I'm not totally sure.  It was a great crazy time with kids everywhere and lots of eating and drinking.  It was a fun time.  Enjoy the pictures and will update soon with our trip to Little Rock. 

First time in bumbo chair.  Not sure what to think yet...

Happy boy in his car seat ready to ride

Halloween photos

Catching up today so make sure you check it all out. Wanted to just post our Halloween photos. It was a great night. Our neighborhood throws a big Halloween party with dinner and drinks so we first stop there then we walked around just a bit to trick or treat. Everyone had to be carried so needless to say we didn't "treat" for very long. It was loads of fun though, can't wait until they get older.

Fall is here, time for the holidays

Ok blogger has changed so having issues uploading and organizing my pictures.  We are getting excited for the holidays and the weather has for sure changed.  We've been to the pumpkin patch, decorated as scary as we can for Halloween and boughts lots of candy that I've proceeded to open prior to giving to children :)  Syd is doing great.  She's as busy as a bee and it's fun trying to keep up with her.  She's getting all of her (what I like to call) vampire teeth in all at the same time so she's very attached to her wubby (stuff pink dirty bear) and pacis.  Ty is doing well. He's a little chunk fitting into 6 month outfits and eating well.  He's still not quite sleeping through the night but he usually gives us a good 5 to 6 hours of sleep so I can't complain....well I can and do but try not to often :)  So here are some pics, hope you enjoy. 

Pumpkin patchHere is a slide that was super long and we thought she'd get scared but she didn't Ty "exploded" out of his outfit right when we drove up so he got to be in his moby wrap all nakedAll tuckered out from the fun (notice the change in outfit, Syd was dirrrrty)Siblings, love it!Our little penguin lady with gold sparkley shoes.

2 and 16 months

We've been nice and busy here in the Herzog house. Lots of diaper changes, outfit changes, bottles, pumping, feeding....ya know all the fun stuff. As a new mom of two I'm finally reaching some normalcy and getting use to this whole idea. Syd still loves her brother and isn't showing many signs of jealousy so we're hoping it stays that way. She knows when he cries to find a paci and place it in his mouth...notice I said "place" when she more shoves it somewhere on his face. That hand eye coordination is still a work in progress. Ty is now sleeping about 5-6 hours in between feedings at night and then another 2-3 after that so really I won't complain at all. Syd is trying to learn how to communicate with us and I think it's a bit frustrating for her just because she just can't get those words out. She knows some sign language but not enough to be satisfied so we're going through a frustrating "ahhh" stage...when I say frustrating I mean all parties involved :) Enjoy the pics and the video at the end. This was one of our first craft times. I got some fun crayons and needless to say they didn't stay on the paper I gave her for long Not too sure about the taste of those crayons.

Fun times at the park. This chick could stay outside all day if we let her.

Pretty ladybug

Holding her brother. Fun to hold but when she's done she just kinda brushes him away like he's one of her dolls.

Holding my own....well or two kids and one bottle hahaha

I want your camera momma

Hanging with my bro

This is absolutely adorable. I came downstairs to pump and it was late and daddy was up with Ty reading his book outloud to him. Ty looks so intrigued. What a good daddy!!

Sleepy baby until your sister comes up and screams in your ear.

Loves to be wrapped in her blankets just for fun, like her own toga party

Smiley baby just hanging

If you look close to the side of her head kinda near her eye you can see a scratch. That was to the thanks of Neo. It goes halfway down her little face. Thankfully it's almost gone and healed.

And here is little Ty all decked out in his Husky gear smiling like he loves football :)
