Well it has been WAY to long since I have blogged! We have been very busy as always. Brandon has done three trips in the last months (ahhh!) the boys are a mile a minute and mom has just been trying to keep up! Brandon has traveled for work and personally all through the southern states of the US, we celebrated my dad's 60th birthday in Fort Worth and finally cooled off here in Dallas!!! We had 60+ days of over 100 (mostly 110) and we just melted. The boys and I spent all our time indoors and we were all just ticked pink when it dropped to the 80's two days ago. We are back to biking with the boys and outdoor time!
The boys are saying more and more. C loves animals and works to say all their names, can identify his snack, and has started to identify more people and places. He is a master at getting what he wants. Just last weekend he got two women to pick him up at the museum and convinced an older volunteer to pay for a ride for him. He is a tiny genius. Brock continues to ask questions and he now tells me when he has a poopy diaper (yeah!) he also digs in it and shows me to poop (boo) and then sometimes wipes it on me (double boo). He loves shoes and sunglasses and wears his rain boots, my shoes, dad shoes and every pair he finds all over the house. Brock is getting his last four teeth finally! Yeah! We hope this helps him sleep since he has moved to a 830-630 or 7a schedule (boo).
The boys are on everything, in everything and seem to be always awake. Mom is tired, getting older and getting slower compared to these guys! The other day Christian broke into the kitchen through his baby gates, found the keys to the car and I found him in the garage attempting to unlock the door to the car. All this while i was cutting fruit for dinner. Brock figured out how to open the car door while we were moving (ahhh!) and we found our child locks pretty fast. They are smart, organized and fearless..... luckily they are also VERY cute!
They LOVE their cartoons (I call them their stories) and scream "NOOOOOO" when you turn them off. Brock is starting to be a good listener and will sometimes stay and come to you when you ask. He will lay down for a diaper change and hold your hand sometimes when you ask. Christian will NOT listen... not because he can't but b.c he doesn't feel like it. He laughs and laughs when he runs away from you. He loves to be chased and is a good little runner :)
We are into playing together, pulling each others hair, fighting over the same toy, finding new ways to help each other out, stealing each others sippy cups and food, hugging, blowing kisses, talking to each other, their monkey plates, hitting, pulling each other diapers off if exposed, fighting over the red bike (why not yellow?), fighting for mom's lap and dad's horse rides and overall being just a hoot for mom and dad.
Brock fell asleep in his chair on pizza night, Christian went in for the kill.
All the family made it through the stomach flu this months.... yuck. Brock and Brandon took the brunt of it and C and I had it more more like 48 hours. I will try to post better next time, no more 4 weeks!
