Beatboxing----hysterical!!!

Crawling is the new rolling.

Lucas comes to me with a plastic pool toy, so proud that he has written on it with a marker. I looked at him disapprovingly and said that we aren't supposed to use this markers on toys.

He looked me straight in the eyes and said, "don't be bossy about this, mom. It's actually quite wonderful. I wrote my own name and I did a really good job."

Pause ( because I could not speak)

He says "you know that? So really don't be bossy, ok?" Exits room.

Wow.

Merry Christmas!!!

Hello my darlings!

I have so many fun things to fill you in on with my littles.  Elliott really has a tooth.  A bona fide tooth.  A sure sign he is growing up.  Sigh. 

Elliott is also so very close to crawling.  I mean it, so very close.  Lucas thinks he is teaching his brother to crawl and to talk, and it is hysterical to watch him get on all fours and really try to coach him.  So funny.

We had a marvelous Christmas.  Lucas really 'got' Christmas this year, and feels pretty confident that Santa is watching him ALL THE TIME, but not in a creepy way. 

Photos coming up!!

Photos to brighten a very ugly day.
