Here we go...

Well here we go:o) I've been reading a blog that my friend Anna has been doing for quite a while now and I finally started one myself. I figured it's a great way for family and friends to see how big the boys are getting and find out what we're up too any time of the day or night. I'll start with the basics. I'm 36, married, my husband's name is Troy, and we have two children; David 5 on Sept 7th and Adam 2 on Oct 3rd. I'm a nurse and my husband is a computer engineer.



David is in Pre-K and will start kindergarten next fall. David is a very lovable child who tells me at least 30 times a day,"Mommy...I love you. You're the best mommy in the whole wide world. You make my heart so happy." He loves his brother but also delights in antagonising him mercilessly. David loves anything to do with dinosaurs or trains. He also enjoys watching Animal Planet. He's very perceptive and catches on quickly. He loves to help clean the house(won't last) and saves up the money he gets for helping me to buy TOYS. He never has enough for what he wants to buy but he walks right up to the counter, pulls his money out of his pocket, and gives it to the cashier. I, unbeknownst to him, pay for the balance and he walks out of the store very proud of his new purchase that he paid for all by himself:o) He also comes out with the funniest things when you don't expect it. The boys share a room, the baby was crying, I entered the room and said what's going on in here? David replied without missing a beat..."I'm trying to get my beauty sleep!" He also has a little trouble with his v's. You can frequently hear him tell his brother"don't do that eer(aier), eer(aier) again!" and 7 is pronounced sezen. He has taken to singing the alphabet and did you know that we've had it wrong all these years? There actually is no J or K in the english alphabet just so you know.



Adam delights in Mickey Mouse, Lightening McQueen, Trains, dinosaurs, and screaming at the top of his lungs for no apparent reason other than to let us know that he's there. You will rarely find him without his gray dinosaur in tow. He loves his plug(pacifier) and blanket. He's still in his crib but he's so tall that he's going to be in a big-boy bed very soon. He is so busy and so mischievous that he keeps me on my toes. He is starting to talk a lot more...the best is "bubble" he also says cow,cat, meow,bird,dog,nose,David,mouse,Dad,Mama,thank you,please,NO, what's that, go away, stop, and some others. He is getting so big! And he's got a big attitude to go with it. He certainly knows what he wants and has no problem letting you know when he does or doesn't like something. He has a friend Kyle who he plays with every week. He's getting better at sharing but he is a work in progress. He also likes to bite. We're working on that:o) He is a huge tease and quite the flirt. He likes the ladies already. He loves fruit, especially raspberries and cantaloupe. He loves animals. David is scared of dogs but we've been working on that and he's been much better. Adam loves Da-id, as he calls him. He will hug him one moment and try to bite him the next as he laughs. He's a little stinker but we love him!

Both boys are Mommy's boys, as my husband says. They give great hugs and kisses. I've trained David to brush Mommy's hair, cause that's her favorite, and Adam has taken to trying to do the same except he goes up instead of down.

I love my boys so much and at the same time they can drive me to the edge of sanity, then they smile at me and I melt. I'll post pictures and keep you informed as they grow and experience life day to day.
