Okay, you might have wondered what has happened to me! No, I have not been abducted by crazed chicken pirates. I think I have just been too lazy to blog. But seeing that I have a new baby I am going to use the excuse that I have been too busy!! Plus, we have been reading "Henry and the Crazed Chicken Pirates" book non-stop. Jack loves the line "but what if a parrot poops in my eye and I can't see". He's got the book memorized. I recommend you get this book from your library, it is hilarious to read!
Willow is now 4 months. Time flies by. She is such a good and easy baby! I love it! Makes having 3 much easier. She is rolling around all over the floor. She already is moving her legs and knees and is never in the same spot that I put her down in. She spits up like crazy and seems to miss the blanket she is lying on and gets the carpet. She is a great sleeper which makes mama happy and must more patient with all the kids (which I am sure the kids appreciate!) She laughs hysterically when the boys jump in front of her. She loves watching Jack! Her hair is growing and is crazy looking everyday. But I love that hair!
Jack has just got a new bike with training wheels. He saw this Hot Wheels bike on a commercial and fell in love with it. The handle has a handlebar that you can rev like a motorbike. He just rides his bike around - revving the handle. He has had a few spills but is learning how to use his brakes to stop! We have 2 boys who live beside us the same age as Jack and Grayson and they just ride bikes all day! Jack is also loving Lego right now. He loves building things and just plays and plays with the planes and cars that he builds. And he loves Lego.com.
Grayson is mama's boy. He does not leave my side too much. At playgroup he stands right beside me. He hates going to nursery but slowly enjoys it when he does stay. He sits with me when we are outside playing with neighbors. He is so shy around strangers. Oh, but he loves Jack. Sometimes they play so nicely others not so nicely. Mostly, it is Jack getting upset because Grayson isn't doing what he wants and Grayson just doesn't understand what to do. A 4 year old trying to communicate to a 2 year old how he wants to play a made up game or have a race - the 2 year old just doesn't always get it. And then they both get frustrated! or mostly Jack.
As for me and Dave, nothing is too new or exciting. Dave started working on getting our raised garden ready for planting as well as getting things ready so we can get our back fence finished next weekend. Can't wait for our fence to be done!
I am just enjoying being able to take the kids outside to play everyday! Sunshine and parks make for happy kids and happy mom!
I couldn`t just pick a couple photos of the kids so here are a few.
More pics to come later, we just created a family band this morning - jack was on piano, grayson on drums and willow the lead singer...I`ll post pics soon!
