February

What? We're ending February and I didn't post at all this month. Sorry. I think we had a chance to touch base with most of you though. I'm at work and don't have a pic handy. However, I will give you all a brief updated on our star.

CJ started music class two weeks ago and seems to be enjoying it. He never wants to leave at the end even though he likes to take 2 potty breaks while class is happening. He likes the songs, but is pretty shy around the other kids.

Speaking of potty training, our kid is a pro. We still have a few slip-ups now and then, but in general he's good to go. The funny part is we never have problems when we are out in public. We have problems when we don't want to stop watching Max and Ruby or some other funny cartoon.

He's a riot. The more he talks, the funnier he becomes. The other morning he informed me that Rice Krispies are too sugary for little boys. He's just growing and changing so fast, we seem to blink and he's changed again. Today he mastered pedaling on the tricycle. Normally, he just pushes himself along because it's easier.

Casey is back to school. (Delaware starts at the beginning of February). Life is not that much different as now he's gone three nights a week instead of me. However, we live so close we are all enjoying our time together. CJ can't get enough of Mama and Daddy time.

For all of you who know us well and know the way that Casey and I banter back and forth, you will also be happy to know that CJ has taken it upon himself to say what many of you have probably wanted to say for years. STOP! Every time Case and I start discussing anything that sounds like a debate (whether its politics or groceries), CJ pipes up with STOP! and puts his hand up. It's really funny!

That's it for now. I'll try to get some pics up soon.

Hello from Philly

Hello and Happy Holidays from the City of Brotherly Love! Its almost New Year's resolution time and one of mine is to maintain a blog for all our of friends and family who don't get to see our little guy on a daily basis (and for those of you that do too). CJ is ready for Christmas- although Santa is not his favorite as you can see. I'm not sure who is worse at peeking at packages though, CJ or Casey. We were too excited to wait so we've had a Christmas tree up since the weekend after Thanksgiving. We kept the unbreakable ornaments on the lower part of the tree, which has been good since he likes to take them off and throw them to his daddy. He's so smart and observant. I'm just amazed by him. He loves to learn and seems (to me) to be very mechanically minded since he can unscrew or take apart anything you put in front of him. He has an infectious grin and a laugh that reminds you what living is about. He likes to talk all time and he LOVES to dance. He's ju...

Home Again

Well, we made it back to Philly! Its been a crazy few weeks though. CJ came back with an ear infection and brocholitis. Then he and Mama ended up with the flu on top of that. Poor Casey had to take care of both of us. I started classes the Monday we got back and so we're back into the swing of a semester. Thank goodness I'm almost done- only one more semester after this one. We had a great time in Kansas City visiting with all of our friends aned family. CJ misses everyone and loves to look through the photo album and point out his family. He also misses his friends Ian and Eli who he absolutely loved to tag after when we visited The Menzies- Spangie, Drew, Sierra, Ian, and Eli. He had a great Christmas full of suprises and travels. He is definitely one spoiled little boy, but we don't mind. Thank you all so much. His favorite thing seems to be his quad bike that his Aunt Dawn and Uncle Eric gave him. He loves zipping around our living room with it. We are still waiting to ...

Update

No major news to update. We're all on pins and needles waiting for the baby to arrive. At this point, it looks like we will definitely have a little one sometime next week if not earlier. Today is my last day of work. I'm definitely ready as I am starting to need more rest and am feeling some major shifting in the baby. Last night Pop Pop arrived though so it definitely brought some excitement to the house. CJ was showered with gifts from Aunt Cherie and Aunt CeCe, which he has been certain to remind us are the gifts for big brothers! He is getting excited at the thought that the baby is coming home soon. Of course, he's even more excited that Pop Pop is here for a long time and that his Nana and Grandma will be out soon too. We will try to keep you all updated when things start progressing. Just wish us luck!
