Trav is the best dad. About a month ago, we decided to do more of a joint bedtime where we do everything together so that when the new baby gets here it won't be a big deal to have just trav put them to bed at night if that is what needs to happen. Trav has made a habit of telling the kids, go get 2 books each and we will read them! Now they only want daddy to read to them on the couch at night. I had to do it the other night b/c trav wasn't home, and they both cried saying only daddy could read to them!!! (made me sad, but trav grinned when i told him! :0) It is a great time for me to fold a load of clothes or empty the dishwasher before they get to sleep!
We have had such a great summer! Now that both kids can occasionally skip a nap here and there, we have been really enjoying playing outside and going swimming. We have had lazy days where we stay in our pajamas and do laundry, and we have had lots of days of being on the go! I would say the sprinkler park, the swimming pool (my in laws community pool), and the mall are the biggest hits for the kids!
I will be posting more swimmy pics later! have a great week!

when i was pregnant with corban and having early contractions, i was told to quit picking up caden. this required brett to do a lot more with caden (although he was already doing plenty). little did we know we were setting up the perfect scenario for us. when corban was born and mommy was with the new baby, caden seemed to not care that mommy couldn't spend time with him because he was already used to spending tons of time with daddy. i never saw any jealousy from caden. all this to say, i think you are making a wise decision. and, by the way, i've always thought you guys needed 3 kids... ;) --a
