Well here I sit enjoying my coffee watching my daughter watch Little Einstein’s while Daddy drops Little Man off at school. When did these kids get so big and where is the slow down button? We bought Sweet Pea her first "bike" the day before yesterday, it's a cute pink and purple radio flyer trike and she loves it! She's really starting to figure out the pedaling thing too, obviously she has a ways to go but something tells me it won't be long before she has it down. Her new discovery too is that she can get in Little Man’s power wheels truck and make it go, it's much more powerful than her Dora 4-wheeler so when she hits the gas it jerks forward and she just laughs, silly girl.
Then Little Man, I seriously don't know when he got so old on me. We bought him a level one reading book and Daddy read it with him last night, he did awesome. He's writing his own name at school now and actually staying within the dotted line area (think back to your early grade school paper), I couldn't be more proud of him. He's also very opinionated these days, he gets that from me. :) He has a radio he likes to listen to at night and it has to be on Z88.3 which is the contemporary Christian music station, he just loves that station. If I try to listen to something else in the car he throws a fit, he likes his music his way. We were actually looking at what a kid’s mp3 player with radio would cost but they are hard to find for boys.
In other news, we bought a nice DSLR camera recently since Daddy loves photography and he's getting pretty good with it. We bought some props and are just trying to hunt down a good backdrop for a decent price so we can do a photo shoot with the kids, I'm excited to see how it all goes.
Oh and I can't believe I didn't mention it first but we are going for a visit to Minnesota 10/15/08 through 10/21/08 and I'm so excited I could dance! We have so many people to see and our wonderful friends have graciously invited us into their home to stay while we are there. I can't even begin to tell you how much I miss my friends and family, it's tough to be 1500 miles away from them. But who knows where life will take us, we seem to never be able to stay in one spot too long. ;) My poor friends got hit with Ike in St. Louis and my sister-in-law did as well in Cincinnati which is crazy since we live in Florida and didn't get anything but a day’s rain out of it. I also recently learned that St. Louis gets an earthquake, that’s crazy! I'm glad no one was hurt and the damage was minimal comparatively.
I couldn't feel more blessed with my little family and all my wonderful friends, thank you God for putting such wonderful people in my life!
