TADA!






So, for all of you who are calling me a lazy blogger, I'm so sorry to be so rude and deny you the pleasure of catching up with our little family for the last month or so...maybe longer. I don't feel like there's anything really fun to post, but here goes:

Dennis:
my wonderful husband is waiting to find out about law school...apps are in, we should be hearing something by mid April. In the meantime, he is busy with work, the boys and helping me stay sane by helping with dishes and vacuuming regularly, he is wonderful. He's been playing a LOT of basketball and watching even more (March Madness, ugh.). I love him. that's all that really counts

Austin:



Has been fully potty trained and accident free for some time, but he likes to fill the toilet up completely with toilet paper, not fun. He stays busy driving mom crazy with messes and playing a little too rough with his baby brother. He shows me how smart he is every day by figuring out something that he's not supposed to. ;) He is a lot of fun and I can't believe how much he's grown, he's huge. He wears size 10 shoes and size 4 pants, he just turned three and the pants I bought him for his birthday are already high-waters. Time flies. And yes, when he's at home he mostly just runs around in his underwear; hey I'd do it if I could too.

Grayson:
This little (huge) man is staying busy pulling all the books off the bookshelf, finding everything edible and some things that aren't and letting them into his mouth. He's cruising around next to the furniture and just generally enjoying life, he always has a huge smile for his mama! I can't believe he'll be 9 months old this week. He still would like to nurse every two hours, and enjoys waking up to see mommy at least twice a night. He slept straight through once last week, it was heavenly! He is cutting 2 teeth, can't wait until that's over, he's not a happy little teether. He is saying "mama", I love it! He still doesn't like turkey.

Me:
I have just been doing the same old same old. Work, mom, cook, clean, mutual, shopping...

We have planned to go to San Diego at the end of April. I never wanted to go to Disney Land, always Sea World, so I get to fulfill my childhood dream! I'm so so so excited, minus missing a week of work (which means a week worth of pay) I'm so excited! We will be down there for 5 days, we got tickets from Costco for Sea World, the San Diego Zoo, and The Wild Animal Park. They were pretty cheap. the only thing I'm not looking forward to is the drive. Grayson is mostly a happy little man, except in the car. So, for anyone who's been to san diego, advice, please!

Can't wait!
