An Update on Life

I sit in a quiet house tonight as Su gets a much needed "girls night" with her friends. I enjoy coming home "early" these days and spending some time playing with the boys and giving her a break. Life is obviously busy and I'm not posting on the blog as much. So I thought with some quiet time, I'd bring everyone up to speed on life with anything that pops into my head.

Jacob is certainly evolving into a "big boy." He's got more and more of a mind of his own each and every day. I only wish I could think of some of the funny things he says, most of which might not be understood on this blog. He's thoroughly enjoying sports right now, much to the delight of his father. He likes to hit and throw the baseball, hit the golf ball, and kick the soccer ball. His favorite television show is American Idol and I wish I was joking. Tonight, he said the best singer was "Rob," whoever that is. Jacob has become scared of things gs as well. Yesterday, he told me he heard noises in his mouth. There are always noises in his room and well as EVIL SHADOWS!!! He and George have a love-hate relationship. Well, fortunately George loves Jacob...however, Jacob chases George one minute and is running from him the next. Jacob pees pees on the potty fairly regularly. No poo poo yet despite our bribe of five M&Ms for a successful try (he gets two for pee pee).

Patrick is growing older as well. He is flipping over in his crib. He doesn't like that too much...yet. When he gets tired, he plants plenty of wet ones on his parents. We think he is close to crawling. For now, he rocks on his knees in that crawling positions. Patrick loves to pull hair, faces and whatever he can get those rough hands on. His top two teeth are coming in and we think a third on the bottom.

As for me and Su. Well, I work and so does she (the free kind). The end!

I'll close with the funniest video ever posted on this blog. Just watch and see.
