A lot has happened since I wrote last. I know I should do a better job of keeping up with this so I have a record of what happens... I'll do a better job. Ok, I'll rephrase that... I'll try and do a better job.
In a blur... Elliot started Pre-school and is doing great!!!! He loves show and tell and really seems to enjoy going. Except today, he threw a fit about not wanting to go until we get there and see all of his friends. "MOMMY! I NEED TO HURRY AND SEE MY FRIENDS!!!"
We went trick-or-treating and the kids had a BLAST!!!! Somehow going around one full block, door to door with a 4 year old and a two year old takes one hour. No joke, one FULL hour. They made bank on their candy and had a great time until they got scared at one house. I really with I could of had a video tape of this. Lets just set it up... Its about 6 pm (its dark now at 6) the boys walk up to the door and ring the door bell. Someone opens the door and fog rushes out making it hard to see. A figure pokes their head out with a scary mask on and says BOO! No joke, Elliot takes one look at this figure and starts booking down the stairs and heading for the street. Casey catches his and the lady takes off the mask and says hi. Levi on the other hand is trying to climb my legs as I'm trying to tell him its just a lady. Every house after that we got asked the question, "are we going to get scared?" Lucky for us aunt Tiffy was able to join us with our trick-or-treating.
Arianna has started crawling. I still can't believe I haven't typed something up since she started crawling!!! It feels like she has been doing this forever. She goes where ever she wants to go and gets into almost anything she wants to. Her favorite thing to do is to change the volume on the stereo. Boy does she get excited when the volume goes WAY up. You will call her name and she will just look at you and smile.
Levi has decided that saying naughty words is the new cool thing to do. I know they aren't real naughty words but coming out of a little two year old I don't really care for them. He will try any way he can to work in the word stupid and shut up. He could be singing the ABC's and some how stupid makes its way into the song. I even went as far as to touch his mouth with a bar of soap... BACK FIRE!! Not only did I get reprimanded by Elliot for doing something so terrible to his brother but I also was informed by Levi that its not nice to put soap in peoples mouths. We are still working on this......daily... hourly...by the minute
We got family pictures done!!! I have been wanting to do this forever!!! The lady that took them for us was wonderful. She did such a great job and I truly love the pictures. The process in which getting the pictures wasn't as beautiful as the pictures but I'll take it.
First snow of the year just fell today! You had better believe my two crazy boys were out in full gear by 8 am. Elliot informed me it was Christmas since there was snow! He as a little saddened that it wasn't Christmas but was still happy that there was snow to play in.
Potty training.... is probably one of my least favorite things to do. I want so badly for Levi to get this but he just is so stubborn! We are to the point were if he wears underpants or doesn't have a diaper on he will go to the bathroom 80% of the time. The other 20% ends up on the floor, chair, couch, bed you name it, its been soiled. He also has the bladder the size of a chipmunk. This boy will go to the bathroom and not even 30 min later have to go again. I just happy that we have gotten past the point of crying when we say its time to go potty. Now he is trying on his own.
So I think I'm pretty caught up as of now. I'll try and keep this more up-to-date so I have a record for myself.
