February 2013!

I'm really bad at updating...so here's a flash of the past ...almost year!
Kyle is 5 and testy!
He still loves music, just started swimming lessons (the night before his first lessons he was crying and going on and on in bed saying, "I'm going to die, I know I am going to die"...such a worrywart :( ), learning to build with legos, had a fifth bowling birthday party, is making more friends at school (a mom of one of his schoolmates said that he told a girl he loved her in the playhouse!), loves art, can write his name, can write number to 10, needs a lot of encouragement because he always wants to get it right the first time!  He is still shy in new situations and still loves his blue blanket from Ann Drake! We are working on being a good sport, listening the FIRST time, ...and the new one..not talking back or telling us no!  With every age, a new phase....  We love him dearly.  He has become a better big brother.  Last night the two boys were playing in Kyle's room alone!  Woo hoo! 

Sean is 1 and 1/2 now...and growing fast!  He is a little ham who...still LOVES his brother to pieces!  In fact, he loves him so much that after he got out of time out the other day, Sean went and sat in time out and cried just like Kyle did!  He understands lots and shakes his head yes or no very seriously when asked a question, but mostly loves to laugh and be silly!  He loves 'dip dip' and now when he dips something in Ketchip, he does the 'dip dip' dance!  He adores his dad and is SO happy to see him when he gets home from work.  Mostly, he likes to mimic his big brother.  He is now talking lots!  We were starting to worry a few months back.  He just learned how to say 'thank you' today.  He loves Elmo and 'choo-choos'.  When we were at the library today, he had the best time playing with the trains for...ever! 
Him and Kyle both love books, dancing, baths, water, kisses, hugs, smiles, and encouragement.  We love our boys and are enjoying family time so much!  It is great to see them grow and learn so much!
