Long Time No Write

Just when I thought I would give up on writing a blog because I am too busy or because I thought no one was reading them, Gene comes through and demands  a post with pictures.  I am glad he did because one day I will look back on these and be glad that I did it even though I felt like it was a waste of time ...at the time.

So, where do I start as far as updates go? Well, B is a full on 3 year old with back talking and everything. His favorite thing to say to us when he is mad at us is " I don't like you, you're not coming to my birthday party!" When we would say "Ok, I guess I will return your present and cancel the party", he started to get a little more smart. He changed his tune and starting saying " I don't like you, you're not coming to C's birthday party!" Once the party was over we were looking forward to not hearing that phrase for a long time, but that was short lived. His favorite movie now is The Sandlot, and he will watch it everyday and act out every scene.  He loves playing baseball and is actually really good, better than most 5-6 year olds. He can slam a ball pitched to him, he just recently started catching balls with his glove and his favorite move is sliding into home (or any base for that matter). My favorite words that he says, that still remind me of how young he is, are; bana (banana), hairy dogs (prairie dogs), hosbibal (hospital), almons (almonds), and instead of saying "I" he says "me". For instance "me don't know", and "me want it". Right now B is either the sweetest angel child or he is the devil and it can switch within seconds of each other. He is all about his independence and wanting to help out. For example, he tried to wash my iPad for me in the sink, he wants to cut his own food and dress himself. It is a lot of fun watching B grow up, he is such a funny kid. Oh and he can draw the best robots. His pictures have gone from scribbles to actual things now.

C lee is now crawling all around and making all kinds of new sounds,  He can clap and loves his jumperoo. All around C is a very observant  child and is already showing signs of independence. He already is better playing by himself then B was at this age. The one thing C can't do as well a B at this age is eat solid food. He seems to have a very sensitive gag reflex, so I have a feeling I will be pureeing his food for a long time. His hair is just as out-of-control as ever, but as with B, we are not cutting his hair until his first birthday. C is sleeping well through the night, 8pm- 630 am and I hope that doesn't change although once his first tooth gets ready to cut I am sure it will.
