My Leisha & Jared... A Look Back

Ok I found most of my pics of when my 2 favorite kids in the world I used to watch before they moved away, and I am feeling weepy over them and decided to blog about them. The above pics of my Jared he was 3 months and he was such a demanding little guy! But the I believe the pic of him in his swing he was wearing the outfit I had bought him, which he like wore twice cuz he was chunky monkey!!!!!!
This pic of Jared in his walker he about 6 months and everytime I was over Leisha and I would try taking pics of him and he would try to run us over. He was a speed demon in that thing trying to get the camera! Oh and he drooled like mad!



These were when Jared was 9 1/2 months old and attempting to walk... he could do it, but he was just a little bit chicken. But again, he was ALWAYS after me and the camera. And he knew if he got to me I would pick him up. (NO... I NEVER SPOILED HIM!)
And Little Leisha ALWAYS running in her teeshirt and girly underwear! And Loved getting Jared to chase her and run circles round the house! And Leisha always had red or orange or green colored lips from all those popsicles she loved so much and (NO... SHANNON NEVER GAVE IN AND SPOILED HER EITHER!) :)
The one with me feeding a glum looking Jared was Leisha's 3rd birthday party and I was there to keep eye on him as he was feeling "yucky" and had a fever that day.
These are some of my faves of Mr. Jared. He was just 12 months here and a wild man!!!!!!
This was after Leisha's birthday party. Look at that sweet pretty face on her!
We all remember these times..... Jared's tantrums!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was a classic. Look at that face.
And we definately remember this...... eating dirt!!!!!!!!!!! A fave from the backyard at Shewville Rd.
Jared eating and eating. This boy just could never get enough food!!!!!!!!!! I think I was just arriving here and he was waving and giving me his smiley grin.
A Nice cuddle with My Leisha
Jared making me nervous at the top of the stairs.
Poor Leisha was sick this day. But she managed a smile.
Awwwwwwwwww
And who on earth is this critter?????????????????????

I sure do miss these two crazy kids who are all grown up now. Leisha married and Jared will be graduating. But they truely will always be my most favorite and special little ones ever and closest to my heart. Even if they were too little to remember those times now. Oh, and I will never forget Jared learning to say my name...... he loved to say it when I showed up. It was some weird way but I knew it was my name! LOL And all the miles I chased them round in the house.
Well, now that I have embarrassed them to no end. I will stop.

I love these pictures. My favorite of Leisha is the one with her sitting on the couch with a pillow on her lap and kool-aid stained face. My favorite of me is the tantrum!
