Boys Birthdays!

Here are some pics of both the boys birthdays...its really hard to imagine that Matthew has turned 3 years old. He has become quite the character! And my little peanut (I know David says he is too big to be called peanut (not age wise but actual size!!) but that's what he will be to his mommy!) JJ has turned 1 years old.. it seems like only yesterday we were at the hospital having him. Its amazing how time really flies. It really is so important to cherish every single moment with them even the bad ones :)

It's been a while...

Wow... I didn't realize how long it had been since I had blogged... well let's see if I can catch you up a bit...

Matthew is doing well...he is trying to get the point of sharing with others, and listening and obeying. He got in trouble a few weeks ago at church for not sharing the toys. He is definitely keeps us busy and he absolutely never stops! He has TONS of energy!! I can't wait until he can start a sport, I think he would enjoy it and it would burn some of that energy. He still loves to read about dinosaurs and Thomas and of course he is still LOVES Cars and anything McQueen and Mater (the characters in the movie) We have tried to put on less TV and only watch it on the weekends or if I am home by myself he watches if for 30 minutes while I put JJ to bed. He absolutely is gaga over the iPad but he only gets that if he has good behavior at Lala's house or here at home. So it is an incentive for him. He has learning games on it and some fun games as well. He absolutely loves to talk...he is a chatter box. He enjoys telling JJ not to do stuff especially while we are in the car. Right now as I type he is in bed but has gotten out of bed just to get out and comes up with very silly excuses.

Jonathan is getting SO big, he is such a happy little boy. But like I said he is huge. Clothes that use to fit Matthew at 8 months don't fit JJ. He is wearing 9 month old clothing and has since he turned 7 months old... it is truly amazing! He finally got one of his bottom teeth. I have tried to snap a picture but have had no luck! He hasn't mastered the art of crawling although he is great at rocking back and forth and then leaping... and he rolls on the carpet quite well! He is super quick on the walker though, so perhaps he will go straight to walking.

David is doing well at work and he has enrolled to go back to school! He starts an online course this semester ( I can't remember now what it is that he is going back to school for... some technology thing) I know that is horrible I should know.... I really can't remember.. either way I am very proud of him for taking this step.

Me, I turned a year older this month... can't believe it and I am still teaching (found out today that I have to move classrooms so I will be packing at the end of the year to go to a slightly smaller class...yuck!) There are more days when I wish I was home with the boys. My prayer is to find something that I can do from home especially when Matthew starts school. I really want to homeschool both of the boys and I have already started my research! I am really excited about this possible journey!

I will try to post some photos this weekend... it has been a hectic couple of weeks but hopefully I can actually be home this weekend and do something!

Big Boy Bed Day 2

Yep...I am starting to think this whole switching Matthew to a big boy bed was not such a good idea. Nap time today was a nightmare as he did not want to stay in the bed, he finally fell asleep after an hour of fighting, screaming and spankings. I am sure anyone walking past our house thought I was torturing the poor boy. Tonight he stayed in his bed fine when it came to nighttime but he kept falling off the bed so just now at 11:15 we made a bed on the floor with quilts so he and I could both try to sleep. I also just ordered a rail to go on the crib so that should be here by Wednesday. Hopefully the railing will help! I will keep you updated...Good Night!
