15 Months!

Yesterday the Peas turned 15 months old! We never adjust their age, but if they were born on time they would have been 12 months old ( their due date was supposed to be September 16th). In honor of them I'm going to share 15 things about Ryan and Evan.

1. THE PEAS ROCK!
2. Ryan loves to carry things around; he always has. He loves to carry my shoes!
3. Ryan loves to give spontaneous kisses. He'll come right up to you out of nowhere and plant one on you. He loves to kiss Evan too!
4. He likes fruit salsa and homemade cinnamon sugar tortilla chips. (check out http://divascancook.blogspot.com/ for the recipe.
5. This boy loves to climb on anything. He is ALL boy!
6. He's not the friendliest person! People come up to them all the time, and Ryan usually has the meanest look on his face. You've got to win this one over.
7. Other times he's all smiles, especially to little girls!
8. He loves to figure out how things work.
9. Evan LOVES his big brother something fierce!
10. Ev is *gasp* a bully sometimes. He takes everything from Ryan. What Evan wants Evan takes. He'll push, pull, hit, and scream to get what he wants. It doesn't matter that there are two of everything around here. He wants the one that Ryan has!
11. He tries to put his pacifier in my mouth all the time!
12. He loves meat!
13. His dad taught him how to do a praise dance. Too funny! I'm trying my best to get them on video!!!
14. Evan is very observant and he tries to imitate everything he hears and sees.
15. Evan isn't a fan of fruits and veggies.


In honor of them turning 15 months old, the Peas got a special treat yesterday. I made fruit salsa and homemade cinnamon sugar tortilla chips (yummy and easy!) for their afternoon snack.
For dinner they had homemade chicken strips and crash hot potatoes (the Pioneer Woman's recipe) and carrots. Since the boys are eating table food now I'm trying to find new recipes. I love trying new foods (Daddy P, not so much!) and I want to expose the boys to as many foods as possible. Now that I have children, I think more about the food that I prepare. I've seen a day when I was the queen of out-of-the-box meals! Better yet, I was the queen of go-out-to-dinner! Now, I try to prepare more of our meals because I know the cook :) and I know what's going in our food. The Peas enjoyed their meal, but I think they enjoyed throwing the remnants of it on the floor better! Way to show your mama you appreciate a home cooked meal, eh!
