Ok, so yesterdays post did not happen. Oh well. We had a crazy end of the week with a day long power outage, 2 year olds with colds and ear infections, and late night bunco games. To top it all off, Adam came home (he was gone all week) so we wanted to have a nice family night. It's hard to not see your husband all week then have him come home and say, "hey hon, I know I have not seen you all week, but I gotta go blog for a 1/2 hour." I know, my priorities are SO screwed up!! :)
Besides the colds and ear infections everyone has been doing very well. Ashley is becoming more and more of a smiley girl and we are all relishing in it.
Something happened with Aaron this last week and suddenly his vocabulary has exploded!! He will all of the sudden walk up to me with something in his hands and just say the name of the object. We will also be driving down the street and he will just be naming everything that he sees. I only understand about half of the words he is saying, but he is SO proud of himself...and of course we are proud of him also.
Alec is doing very well and is getting into the Santa Clause thing this year. Yesterday in the car Alec was unusually quiet, which usually means that something profound is going to come out of his mouth. He finally decides to speak and he asks, "Mommy, if Santa is always watching, then where is he watching from? Is he invisible? Does he disappear?" I of course was not prepared for these questions and had to think very quickly. I told him that there are little elves all over the place that watch and then report back to Santa. He bought it for the moment, but I have a feeling that more questions are to come. I have to say, the threat of Santa knowing all and it effecting the gifts that he will get on Christmas morning has really worked well. If I mention Santa then his attitude and actions change immediately. So how many years does this work for?
By the way...KOST is already playing Christmas music full time as of yesterday. A tad early in my opinion!
