What did YOU do on Black Friday??
Can I just tell you how happy these boys make me? I can't believe how natural and easy it has been having a second child. The transition has been amazing! After this delivery, I have been so happy all of the time. I feel so normal and content. It's made me realize how depressed I was after I had Gavin. It wasn't a severe depression, but it was enough. I have thoroughly enjoyed being a mother of two boys. I love watching Gavin be so protective of Kade and I love to just stare at Kade. He's perfection. I'm so glad he got to come to my family. I LOVE having a house full of boys! Tim's maturity level is right there with Gavin's, and you know what? I love it! I love how he can connect with Gavin in a way that I never could. Their dynamics is amazing and I love watching them together. I love my life!
Next up...the kiss in this scene is a little...well...um...awkward and gross. My friend warned me that during one of their kisses, they make sounds as if they're doing it. I thought that it would be some hot, steamy kiss. No, it was a short, uncomfortable kiss where those noises totally don't fit. I think they were supposed to be kind of crying or something, but it was just weird and I couldn't help but giggle.
This frolicking scene was so cheesy. Many in the audience giggled at the cheesiness. I'm surprised Robert had the strength to run with Kristen. I'm glad I've never seen his legs. He's probably got terrible chicken legs with sick, splotchy hair on them.
This underwater scene was just weird. It wasn't romantic or sweet at all. It was just weird. They both looked like corpses. This was totally portrayed wrong.
Rosalie's wig was HIDEOUS! It couldn't look more fake! I'd take the brown roots from Twilight any day over this wig. She makes a terrible Rosalie anyway. But...Jacob...mmmmm...he's perfection.
Maybe Robert needs to take some lessons from Taylor on how to portray your character accurately and on how to get a hot bod. Isn't Edward suppose to have a body like Taylor's? On a different note, I thought Taylor did a wonderful job being Jacob! He got all the emotions across and he made me Team Jacob all over again (not that I have ever been anything other than Team Jacob, but he reminded me again of why I love him more than Edward. Edward's a creep.)
Taylor and Kristen did a great job together. Their relationship is so much more believable and natural on screen than the Kristen-Robert relationship.
Even though this is a lame picture of Kristen, it's the only one I could find of just her in it. I thought she looked so pretty in this movie! Her hair and makeup were so much better!

Oh man, I love this kid SO much! We seriously got so spoiled with him. From day 1 he's been the best sleeper. We've never had a problem getting him down for a nap or at night. He LOVES his sleep. I love how opinionated he is when it comes to what Tim and I wear and how I do my hair. He loves to pick out Tim's shirt and tie and does an amazing job getting them to match. If Tim is wearing something that Gavin doesn't think looks good, he'll let Tim know and then go and find him a different tie, and without fail, it always is a better choice than what Tim picked out (and Tim doesn't have bad taste at all, Gavin just has better taste). He hates it when I put my hair up in a ponytail. He will seriously break down and cry until I put my hair down. He'll tell me, "No, mommy! Don't fold your hair up! I like your hair down!" and after I put it down, he'll run to me, give me a big hug and say, "You're such a pretty girl! You're beautiful!" He sure knows how to work it. He loves shoes, just like his dad...especially girl shoes, but don't let that throw you off. He is ALL boy (with a little bit of class, like dad). He sure knows his cars. He can tell you what almost all of his toy cars are...Aston Martin, Bronco, Mustang, Jeep, Mini Cooper, Bug, etc. He loves to help Tim with all the manly work he does around the house. He loves to pretend he's a dinosaur so much that we now have to tell him he can only do that in his bedroom, otherwise, he won't act like anything other than a dinosaur at home, out in public, in nursery...everywhere! He still loves wearing his green boots. He loves girls so much, it's almost scary. The other day he asked my mom and me to take him to fabric store. He said, "I want to go to the faggot (he can't say 'fabric') store and see the cute girls and say 'Hi cute girls! What your name is!?'" At church, he asks us if he can go see the cute girls that are playing in the isle. We'll let him and he'll go up to them and just stare. It's so funny! He loves to hold theird hands in nursery and spoils them with hugs. There are multiple girls in the ward that claim that Gavin is their boyfriend. He's already a heartbreaker. He's an amazing big brother. He can't get enough of Kade. We woke up this morning to Gavin in our room loving on his baby brother. He says Kade is his best friend and he is always there to put a binky in Kade's mouth whenever he cries. I sure love this boy! I am so glad he was sent to our family. We couldn't be luckier!

Gavin is super cute with Kade!
One morning he came into my room and told me that Kade wanted to watch a movie with him. Here they are watching "Transformers". Gavin at one point leaned down and told Kade, "That's Optimus Prime. He's me favorite. And that's Bumble Bee, he's my other favorite."
We have another jaundice baby. Gavin had to be on lights too. I hate this! I feel like those precious newborn days are being taken away from me. I can't hold him except to feed him or change his diaper and then he has to go right back on the lights...boo.
