Christmas List :)

I told you I would post one just to limit confusion! Feel free to email me if you want to get something off the list for the boys so I can mark it off! I will also list what the boys are already getting in Blue!

So here goes nothing!

Brett

Fun toys that are difficult to figure out he is as smart as a whip so he will love these :)

The T-Rex Dinosaur from Build-A-Bear if you get this please let us know immediately because we are planning on getting it for him if no one else does :)

Jayden

Clothes :) Jeans especially in a size 3t or 4t

A retro play kitchen from Toy'R'Us he loves pretend play!

For both we would love gift cards to www.kiddiekandids.com so that we can get more and more cute pictures done of the boys :)

I will update with more as we think of it!

So please excuse any typos :)

Hi!

Brett started walking last week :) He walks sideways its soo cute! He is getting so big :D Corey is still loving his job and Jayden has developed such a passion for school. This makes us so excited we love that he is so loving school! He is such an angel :) We are going to KS in a couple of days Yay 

We all had the flu last week that was so not fun but glad its out of our system now :) 

Its been a WhILe :P

Much has happened over the last couple of weeks :) B is starting to walk a little, still holding hands is best for him, he has soooo many words too like Airplane (Aepaeee), Mama, Dada, Jayden (Dayda), Puppy (puuupa), Hi! he is also waving too :) Tooo CUTE we will have new pictures in a couple weeks too Yipee! Jayden has started his acting classes he loves them he starts Gymnastics when we get back from Kansas! He is so smart we are also doing a little homeschooling also...

Corey is doing wonderfully at his new job (he loves it :) and the Wellness Center is doing great! We are so excited for all the things going on in our lives :) 

So we will be doing a Christmas list on the blog so everyone know what we need or want and this way I dont have to return any multiples we may receive I hope no one thinks I am being tacky but we frequently get toys we have already and I just end up returning them I figure this way everyone gets what they want :) I will also post links so that you can see/order there....

Last but not least we will be in KS from Oct. 22nd to Oct 26 for Arkalalah we will also be traveling to OK in that time frame. We will post pics of the trip when we get home

 

Educational Choices ?ergh!?

So we have decided to Home School the boys! We are starting Jayden on a very simple regimen (testing the waters as it were) He will be in Gymnastic on Monday mornings and in Acting classes on Friday mornings (until the end of Nov.) and he will be doing one hour daily of hands on class room time, we will then be doing exploration in the real world :) In Jan. we will be starting Spanish as a second language :D and possibly cont. in Gymnastics if he likes it if not we may move on to Yoga or Dance classes. This may seem super difficult since CJ and I both work but we have decided on this because of the state of Education today. We both felt that we did not get the Edu we so much needed and wanted the teacher student ratio is ridiculous and we will eventually do either dual enrollment or a private school with no more than 16 students per class. So this is the beginning of our great new adventure!

Birthdays! Steps and Allergies

Jayden turns Three tomorrow YAY! We semi-celebrated his birthday this past Sunday by riding on Thomas the Tank Engine! He had so much fun and I am excited to say so did the rest of us! Brett turned One a month ago (8.7) and here are some of his pics! B is also standing up and took his first step the other day!!

Update from the Allergist~ Brett is now severly allergic to poultry but almost (Allergist thinks a month or so from now) completely outgrown EGGS!!! Woot! Now we need to see a derm for his boy area rash! :( Well hopefully I will update sooner than this next time but we are in the process of moving things around :)

How Fun!

The boys are so much more into exploring now we played with water and what it can do...the hose can push the car, the hose splashes water against the rollerblade, etc well here is a website of wicked awesome learning toys! I am so excited for Christmas I know what my boys are getting (and what I get to get rid of!::the rest of the toys::) http://www.fatbraintoys.com/account/index.cfm

A MOUSE!

This has nothing to do with the boys but a field mouse got into the house and scared the BGs out of me...thankfully we have successfully rid our home of said rodent :) The kids were napping :P So they missed the entire event! 

The Boys are doing great though! Just woke up from naps and are roaring and ready to go...yipee! My angel boys

The Mommy Diaries

What a day it has been! We only had three emotional breakdowns! Woot that is awesome :) None of which happened to be in public (even better) I was only mortified once! (Read He Pushed The Red Button!) We went to the mall and I got my wedding ring back from being sized and we didn't buy or break anything and both the boys were perfect! I turned one lady onto baby wearing! But our new cloth diapers are leaking :( I thought that they were perfect until this. They are leaking at the zipper but I emailed the company and should hear from them in the next 24 hours. 

I wanted to mention Baby Wearing in this post a little because I think it is the SHIZZLE! I have a Mei Tai for Brett (no not the drink although that sounds good to me ;) But a baby carrier you can wear them on your back, front, forward facing or inward! I think they rock and Corey made mine so it is all pretty colors and fitted to my body! If you are interested I will send you pictures :)

Corey had his first day at Precision today. He liked it a lot but the hours are going to be way more unpredictable than we had originally thought he will be training every Thursday night and he was supposed to be off at 430 today and didnt get home until 6pm! So now we need to hire two to three Therapists to be in the Wellness Center M-F and I will only be able to work Sat and Sun until we can find a sitter/nanny to work Mon and Wed 2 until CJ gets home at a reasonable price...so like I will be working sat and sun forever :*( But that is the Biz I guess and everything is in Gods hands and he wants it to be this way for a reason I guess. It will be a challenge running everything like this. Oh and I get to go in and finish painting trim tomorrow YaY > ( But it is my job...well that is the update on jobs and work... 

Pictures!

Kiddie Kandids Pictures!! Yay Done on 9/3/08 We love them!!!

Jaydens' Classes for this Fall

Our Little Drama King is going to be taking Acting and Gymnastic Classes this fall, we will be posting end of session videos from the performances and updating with when they are! 

Thanks!

He Pushed the RED BUTTON!!

Brett (yes Brett the one year old!) hit the RED BUTTON today at GGs. We went to have lunch with GG like every week, she had put all the good stuff up high and without thinking we left the phone on the coffee table. Brett starts hitting buttons no big deal in my mind it is just a phone, well we eat lunch and are talking and about 15 minutes after we move the phone we get a knock on the door..hmmm interesting...we answer...It is the Westminster FIRE DEPARTMENT and POLICE DEPARTMENT!!!!! Uhm okay? Well Brett hit the lifeline button (a red button!) and called the WFD and WPD! I was mortified and my Grandma (GG 87) thought it was hilarious (she raised 5 boys and a girl she knows how it is). So those are our musings today!
