10 Months


I'm a few days late but I thought now when I have just put the boys to bed would be a good time to say it.

HAPPY 10 MONTHS

It really is not fair how fast you are growing.
You love to "crawl" it is more like flopping forward and using you feet to kick off but you are super fast when you want so I must give you credit.
You have started eating everything under the sun (including my chinese food.)  You love blowing raspberries, even more when big brother joins in the fun.
You are just starting to clap and it is the sweetest thing I have seen in a very long time.
You bring so much joy and laughter into the life of everyone you scowl at in your judgmental way.
You remind me daily why I love being your mom as you inspire and amaze me.
As you grow I hope you never stop being the ham that I know and love.  Keep making those cheesy faces that I cannot resist. Also know to never let anyone make you feel bad about yourself. You are an amazing person already and I can't wait to see the adult you become.



Love Mom

Hello Tree

It is that time of year again Christmas yay!  Finally Thanksgiving is over and I was able to put my tree up without having to hear about skipping Thanksgiving as always Big Kid was more than eager to help with the decorating. 


He was so helpful in fact that I let him put all the decorations on.  Who cares that the top 2 feet of the tree are completely bare?  NOT ME!  Thinking back to this time last year I had just taken him out of daycare and was getting ready for Little's arrival now Little is 10 months old and attempting to eat the tree. 

After we finished decorating I thought I would try to take a cute picture of the boys with the tree...


Yeah I think my boys had other ideas!

I really do not like this tree the shape is just strange to me maybe next year I will get a real one... or a better shaped fake one.


Merry Christmas!

Welcome

Just wanted to take a moment to say welcome to my new blog.  This is my 3rd attempt at starting a interesting blog... 3rd time is a charm right?  My first two are pretty lame so I shouldn't have to try too hard to do better.

I am a single mother to two beautiful boys Atticus and Nathaniel.  They are my whole world and I cannot imagine my life without them.  We love to do arts and crafts together and go on adventures as they teach me how to be a better mom.


Nathaniel is 4 and full of energy.  He easily drives me insane bouncing off the walls but he doesn't mean too.  He is also one of the most loving children I have ever met and makes my heart melt on a daily basis into a big puddle of mommy pride.



Atticus is ten months old and has 12 teeth (4 are brand new.)  He is very laid back and also judgmental, like if Simon Cowell were a 10 month old.  He makes me laugh with his cheesy smile and sweet little clap, crawl, talk, okay I admit everything he does is adorable.


So that is all about us hope this one comes out better than the other two...   TBC
