Well, it's been an awful long while. Short update - we moved into our house at the beginning of the year, we're having a baby this upcoming January, we went to Disneyland and Matthew cannot stop talking about it and we're doing great!
Our house is a work in progress, but whose isn't? It's come a long long way from what we bought to what it is now. Charlie worked hard to get it ready for us and continues to work hard to keep it up and make it a home.
We're having baby number three!!! <- three exclamation points seemed appropriate. We find out what we're having in about a week! And I'll try to be a good dooby and post an announcement, but sadly, facebook seems to have taken over my picture post and update venue...sigh.
Disneyland was magical for the kids! The first day was a little bit of an overstimulating experience for the both of them, but we spent three days at the parks, so they had time to get used to the hustle and bustle of the place. Matthew got to meet Mickey Mouse, Pluto, Lightning McQueen and Mater, and saw Goofy and Tigger from afar. He was so happy to see Mickey, He got a big hug and even a kiss! Brooklyn wasn't so thrilled about it. The second Ashley put her down, she started crying - true to form of a two-year-old.
Matthew is in the potty training process. He's been pretty resistant to it, but I've resorted to bribery. Marshmallows have done the trick! He says to us, "I want to go potty for smarshsmellows." And he's had dry diapers consistantly for a few days now, with a few exceptions.
Brooklyn is a very firey little girl and we hope she can someday grow into her attitude. She knows what she wants and is usually very, very determined to get it or give everyone a piece of her mind if she doesn't.
My time blogging is up - the feisty one wants attention, and she wants it now!
Hope the next post comes sooner than later :o)
