Little Conversationalist...

Porter just picked up the home phone (while it was beeping), held it to his ear then started to laugh and talk into the mouthpiece as if someone highly comical and entertaining were on the other end:) LOVE it!!

(Most times he won't speak to whoever is on the phone wanting to hear his voice)

He then had a very deep conversation with the operator.

!!!!!!!( :O) )!!!!!

LOVE my little guy!

Porter will do THE most DARNDEST things!

Yesterday was the beginning of a whole new series of Porter habits at the Munns' home...

Since we moved in, Porter has this strange fascination with my parents' dog Rylee. She TOLERATES him to say the most but he absolutely LOVES following her around and yesterday he was DETERMINED to catch a ride on the "ho-sey." He chased her around for about 5 to 10 minutes with his arms outstretched trying to grab a hold of her and hop on....he would scream each time she stepped further and further out of his reach...poor pup..;)

Porter also has a fascination with Rylee's dog water/food. He started out by putting her dog food in her water bowl (this was DAILY might I add...) which would of course have her going to the toilet bowl for her water source until she had new water in her bowl. But yesterday, an even more disturbing habit surfaced....I heard him in the room with the dog food/water so I ran in, only to find him crouched over her water bowl....SLURPING the water out of the bowl!! SICK! What do i do?!? ( Today he changed from slurping to licking....)

Last little Porter excitement for the day....he took his little sit-on riding truck and was just an inch from going full force down the STAIRS!! AGH!!

Oh the TYPICAL two's!

Kids say the darndest things...

So this past weekend I was able to take in quite a bit of Isaac's entertaining personality. Sadly, he knew everyone's name but mine...although he assured me several times that he knew it but quickly changed the subject when I asked him what it was. While we were all eating out at a seafood restaurant I ask him my name (about the 4th time now in the last 5 min) and Isaac says to me: "I said it at home, not lets not say it again!"

Touchdown!!

During church a few weeks ago while someone was being sustained, after about the third hand went up, Porter stands up and with both hands raised in the air, yells TOUCHDOWN!! HAHA! Whew! The families next to, in front of, and directly behind us found it pretty comical to say the least...

Forgetful...

So I FINALLY was able to REMEMBER the password to my blog! Yay, I'm back! It's been driving me nuts for the past month or so. As of late, MANY changes have come about...let me tell you about em;)

After applying to (possibly far over 10,000) different jobs, Deven scored an interview with CBRE and is currently their NEWEST EMPLOYEE!!!(Thanks to Shandi for the recommendation!!) He was so stoked when he found out he got the job. Shortly after his interview, he got a phone call saying he was one of the top to 'candidates' for the job after all the interviews had finished. Then about a week or two later they called him in the morning telling him when he would start:) I couldn't be more excited for him.

(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

On another note, I have started working part-time as a BALLOON TWISTER and FACE PAINTER! WHOOP WHOOP!! It's been SOO much fun! What makes it even better is that I have the beautiful opportunity to twist and paint with my good friend Tanya. I'm sure her company makes it all the more entertaining. We can both be such goofs when we're together....but still remain very professional of course ;o) Yes, I am working for a clown...and NO I will not pursue a career as a clown, I simply just twist balloons and paint faces. Hahaha..(bet you were curious though Huh??)

Porter is doing GREAT and has a new-found love for trains, trikes, any sort of ball, cars, his Papa and books, playing outside, going on walks walks with mom and daddy...

He now recognizes and points to his nose, eyes, mouth, teeth, ears, head, hat, fingers, toes, feet, hands, shoes, socks, and so many more things. He has added MANY more words to his ever-growing vocabulary as well...

He can say:

Mom/Dad

Papa/ma-ma (grandma)

Shoe/Sock
Cheese
Choo Choo/Vroom Vroom/Ooo-Ooo-Ooo/Meow/Woof Woof
Thank You
Ball
Touch down (deven has been teaching him this since he was IN the womb:))
Chair
Up/Down
Pizza
Oooo 'Tinkey'! (Eww STINKY!)

I am sure there are many other words to add to the list but I can't think of them right now:(

Yesterday we returned from our AMAZING weekend stay with Deven's brother Derik and his beautiful family in Salem, OR. We went to celebrate our nephew, Isaac's 4th Birthday. Porter had SOO much fun playing with his cousins, aunt Kelly and uncle Derik and of course, maa-ma and papa Munns:) Isaac was too funny, I was told by Derik and Kelly that on Friday morning (we had not arrived until Fri night) Isaac didn't want it to be his birthday and was so upset that he erased Kelly's "Happy 4th Birthday Issac" message on the blackboard and yelled at everyone after they sang "Happy Birthday" to him. Too cute! Isaac enjoyed the anticipation of the coming birthday more than the birthDAY because then he would have to wait another 365 days until his next one. SMART BOY! Thanks Derik and Kelly for such a FUN stay!
