Wow...

OK, so it's been FOREVER since I posted on here. The kids are happily watching Dora so I'll take a few minutes to put something down and then I'll slowly play catch up.

Our biggest news over the past couple months has been the impending arrival of baby number 2! I'm due November 2nd and we'll be finding out June 8th what we are having. I know David doesn't fully understand, but when you ask him where mommy's baby is he pats my stomach or tries to lift up my shirt to see my tummy. He'll also randomly hug or kiss my belly and say baby, so we'll see how it goes when the little one actually gets here.

David is growing like a weed. He's now in about the 75th percentile for his height and weight and the 90th for his noggin. He has started speaking in phrases and sentences and is very easy to understand. He is in love with zebras and elephants and can tell you most animals names and sounds. He know all of his colors (most of the time) in speech and in sign and can tell you what most of the letters are along with their accompanying sound. Recently, he started trying to count. It's always 1,2,5,8,9... but he's trying. He absolutely LOVES school. I think this summer we'll probably sign up for two days of mommy and me since he gets so excited about it.

David also has a new accomplishment to tack on to his big boy progress... he now sleeps in a twin-size bed.... no longer the crib. We're working on potty training slowly... he pees and poops in the toilet, just not consistently. When grandma and grandpa get back from their trip next week, we'll be trying potty training full-time. Next issue to tackle... the paci(s). He only uses them for bedtime now, but he has to have at least two... just in case he drops one. Maybe we'll work on that after he's potty trained...

On to Daddy... He is still working at LWT (leisure, werden and terry) as a case manager. He enjoys his job and gets along with his co-workers. The end of this summer will bring on a fresh round of applications for career employment, so we'll see how that goes. Pictures will have to be added later... having trouble uploading them right now. There will also be more updates to follow....
