What did he say?

We are getting ready to put my oldest to bed, and he came up with the ultimate excuse...

I can't I'm rubbing my apples
Yup that is what he said. He calls his nipples his apples...

Sleeping...

I wonder what it will take to get my children to start sleeping through the night.  I am so luck y because my hubby got up last night and dealt with them.  The lack of sleep is starting to set in and is really becoming a problem. 

My goal, after vacation is to get this fixed, and get the kids to sleep all night, with out waking up so mommy can.... oh yea to get them both in bed before 10 p.m. 

I need sleep

Look out World

Well I am so proud- my youngest started taking steps today.  He did well.  He was walking, he took 6 steps in a row. 

I did not even see when he started off walking.  He walked to his brother first.  T was so excited that N walked to him.  What a cute look to have on his face.  

I forgot how cute it is to watch them walk when they are first learning how.  They look like drunken sailors... How cute!

I am sure that he will shortly perfect this new task, and be running after his brother.

Now Sling


My wonderful Sister in Law has decided to start making slings. I love wearing Nathan, it makes life so much easier. I love the new sling. He is great in it, and I can do so much. It is even fall proof, lol. This weekend when I was wearing it I fell on some chocolate pudding and he was safe and sound in it. I know she is looking into selling them, and when that is ready to go I will let you know. These are highly recommended! Very comfortable and easy to put on.

Listening with Others Around

We have been out of town for the weekend and I have noticed forget listening to mommy at all.  It is driving me nuts.  It is almost like the frequency that mommy talks in is one that he can not hear.  
It does not help that others try to help you out and parent your child.  The combination of both causes big problems.  
The question of the hour is how to get a three year old to listen to mommy when other people are around.  How to get him to respect mommy and daddy.  
Most of the issue is we are up by the lake and I am afraid that he is going to run and fall in and no one is going to be around.

Teething

OMG!  6  teeth at once.  N is super crabby.  I can't believe how crabby he is.  I am going to run away.  Nothing is going to make him happy.  I can't wait until these teeth make there appearance.

Mommy I love you

I have to laugh at my children.  I was having a bad morning and T looked at me and said, mommy you need to be happy.  How cute.  He smiled and said that I love you!  Kids just know what to say when you need it!
