Reid's newest accomplishment.

Reid is sick of crawling so this is his new way of getting around. It might take a while for this video to work...sorry. As usual there is no sound. Still have to learn how to hook up the video camera!

I suck at this blog thing















Crap....blogger isn't playing nice. The pictures were supposed to come at the end but it won't let me move them and I am too lazy to copy and paste the codes so this will have to do. You get to see cute pictures first and then read a boring post!

The boys are both sleeping and Mike is watching the news (it's horrible as usual) so I figured I would sit down and update. I'm a little hooked on that little thing called facebook (Thanks a lot Alison!!) Actually I don't mind too much. I have chatted with people that I haven't seen in YEARS!! The fact that I can upload a ton of pictures in a matter of seconds is cool too.

So what has happened since February. Reid is crawling. Started with the army crawl and now he does the hand and knees thing. He started crawling 2 months ago. He is also pulling up...last week he was just getting on his knees...this week he is pulling up to standing and attempting to cruise furniture. I think he wants to keep up with the kids. He also sits up and can get to the sitting position on his own. I will get some more video on youtube in the very near future. We now have 4 teeth with 2 more ready to break skin. We have also had 7 ear infections. Isaac had 4 (both ears....2 separate occasions...obviously) and Reid had 3.....2 in Jan/beginning of Feb and then it came back. It was a nasty month. Guess that is what I get watching 1 kid that goes to pre-k. Isaac has also been referred to an ENT for his sleep issues. Last night was really bad...worse than I think I have ever heard him. I was putting Reid in his crib and in the minute that it took me to get him settled Isaac stopped breathing 3 times. It is scary and I want it taken care of!

Speaking of Pre-k we are looking into sending Isaac this fall. I don't know if I am ready for that. We have quite a few options. It's hard to decide. We can send him to a Catholic school, a "nursery" type school, or a day care/preschool. Keeping up with those last two?? All three are totally different atmospheres. All have great reviews and we know kids who go to or have attended all three. He is definitely ready for school.....and some days I think I am ready for him to go.....but it just seems like he should still be my baby. Enough of that.....gets me all teary eyed knowing he is growing so fast.

Let's see what else I can ramble about. Next month Mike and I will celebrate our 5 year anniversary. I am trying to think of a traditional 5 year gift. It's wood and silverware. I could grab a branch off the tree by our balcony and tie a bow around it. Actually...I think I will. That would be typical of me...being a smartass and all. I'm doing it!!! Don't tell him though...I want it to be a surprise!

Well...I think that is all the fun stuff that is happening here! Oh wait...Isaac would be disappointed if I didn't tell you what he got last month!!! He got a new set of bunkbeds. They are cherry and gorgeous. he picked the colour. He also got a cars bedspread. I have a bunch of pictures on the camera that I need to put on the computer. I have a few I think that I can share now.

I'm too tired to edit that last paragraph....just some extra reading!

Love Me
