Last time I added a picture of Miguel's family to the blog, so this time I decided to show off my family. This was taken at our Folkersen family reunion this summer. My sisters are totally awesome. I love to spend time with my family playing games, rock band, making salsa or chocolate, whatever, they are my best friends.
So Curt is doing lots of cute things now. He waves bye-bye like it's going out of style and he blows kisses, but doesn't take his hand off his mouth so he really just blows on his hand. Here's a picture.
It also really cracks me up how he loves to stop and smell the flowers. Sometimes it slows us down, but it is really, really cute. My sister Kirsten took this picture and has it hanging in her bathroom.
Curt and I went to Gardener Village last week with our friends Eli and Helena. The boys love playing together. Especially when there are animals involved. We saw some geese and Curt obviously opted to climb on top of the wall. He seems to always be drawn to the dangerous situations... I think he gets that from his dad. I have always been such a fraidy cat. I think Curt's favorite animals right now are our turtles. He opens their cage and takes them out. I think the pull their bodies inside their shells when they hear his voice. He also loves to feed the fish. All day, everyday he tries to feed the fish. He grabs the fish food and carries it around the house trying to get me to help him feed the fish. He is so stinking cute. He is also babbling a lot. He always ends his babble with an inflection like he's asking a question.
Curt just loves to read. He found this book at Sam's Club and when I tried to put it back he was heartbroken. He just wouldn't stop crying, so his Aunt Kirsten bought it for him. He has played with the book everyday. It stresses him out because the pages have pieces that pop out and he needs to have them all out. I usually end up giving the book a 'time out' or losing it somewhere so that he will stop stressing out about it. He really does love it though.
I am also going to add a little about Miguel and I.
We realized that it is going to be our 4th anniversary on the 14th. It doesn't seem like we've been married that long, but then again it also seems like we've always been together. I am so lucky to have a supportive husband. I think he feels the panic I have as summer comes to a close. I know I am running out of time to get all of my projects finished, so I just keep pushing. He just built a shelf in our storage room for me (it took us both all day yesterday) and a few weeks ago he tiled our bathroom. It looks pretty good.
