Monster is going on 14 months now and he is even a bigger handful than before. He is a mama's boy through and through (which has its ups and downs). He loves to wrestle, climb, and get into EVERYTHING. He still never stops. Seriously, he never stops. He is like the damn energizer bunny. He is very opinionated. He will tell you of his displeasure if you don't let him have his way. He also started hitting when upset and as I am the one who spend 99% of the time with him, I get most the slaps. He is still nursing (I try to limit him to twice a day. If I never said no, that kid would be attached to me all day)
Bean is still a happy, easy going kid. He is the best big brother ever. We are so lucky. He loves to play with Monster and likes to help comfort Monster when he is upset. Yesterday when we were running errands, he told us that when we got home he wanted to give us hugs and kisses. He got distracted when we got home and after playing for a few minutes, he jumps up and says, "Oh! I forgot!" and runs over to give Husband some love. (Heart melting).
He is doing great in "school". He is learning to read! Crazy! He can read about 15 words and we started to sound out words a couple weeks ago and he is doing well with that. He loves science and math.
Husband is still loving work and things have slowed down for him a bit so he can come home earlier in the evening. SCORE! I do really enjoy him. Football season is upon us so we have spent a lot of time watching it. Yay? After being forced to watch it for a few years now I am starting to enjoy it. Well, I enjoy the first few hours of it....
Now its my turn...not much is new with me. I have more things I want to do than time to do them. Isn't that always my problem? I really want to knit a scarf with attached mittens, can, make crackers, start my quilt of the boy's baby clothes, organize the house better, take a nap....and the list goes on and on. Whenever things get incredible hectic and crazy, I remind myself that everyday things get a little easier. The boys grow up a little more each day (sob) and things will calm down...eventually :) Though in all honesty, I love it! I love the hecticness (new word!) of my days, even if they stress me out sometimes. I just remind myself to "win the day!".
Alright, Monster and Bean are still sleeping (WOOHOO!) so I should probably take these last few quiet minutes to myself and be productive. Fingers crossed I can get on here tomorrow and write about our vacation.
