Well, it has been quite a while since I have updated the blog. I figured, since it was my birthday it would be a good time to update what has been going on in our lives. Well, let's start with Matt...he is doing great. He just turned 4 a couple of weeks ago, and this mama is having a hard time coming to terms that my baby isn't a baby anymore. He still goes to school two days a week and really enjoys his time there. He know most of his letters and letter sounds and his numbers too. He is so sweet too! He is always my kiddo that is concerned with others and is very polite too. I just got a note in his folder from school that said he had good manners. Just what this mommy likes to hear. He will tell you his best friend is Drew, but loves to play with his other friends as well. He is so much fun now and I love the silly things he says all the time. They had a wonderful time with Christmas this year and even got to talk to Santa (my dad) on the phone this year. So cool! Or as Matt would say...Super cool! Lately everything has been super. Super tired, super smart, super hungry, super pretty. You get the idea. Matt is certainly my senstitive child. He had almost a month of time enjoying having my sister home for the holidays. When it was time for her to leave it was Matt that heart breakingly upset. He just cried and asked her to stay or if he go with her. My sister and I just stood there trying to comfort this sweet boy. I love that he loves his Aunt so much! In a week we will be going to Matt's performance for his TOTS which is a basketball skills program he does at school. We are all praying he gets more into it than his Christmas concert for school where he just stood there and did nothing. I don't think he will become a performing artist, but that is okay. He is awesome just being him!!
As for Drew, he is my little mini me. He is fun and sweet as can be, but has a stubborn streak in him! Wonder where in the world he got that from. Ha ha. We had him almost potty trained, but have taken a step back because it was becoming a daily battle and let's just say mommy and daddy were not winning. We will be attempting potty training again soon, but mama needed a break. He is starting a class at My Gym and he really seems to like it. We have also signed him up for preschool for next year. I know he will love that. However, he has been told he can't go to school until he can go pee and poo in the potty. We'll see how that goes. We have until September, so I am confident. Drew is a talker too. He talks all the time andis sure he is the same age as Matt. At least he thinks he can do anything his brother can do....and often times he can. He often amazes me with things he knows. For instance, at Matt's party my mom asked him if he liked the swordfish on the wall. He confidently looked at her and said, "It's not a swordfish, it is a Marlin." So my parents looked it up on their phones, and it was a marlin. Don't ask me how he knew that. I sure didn't know that. He is my daredevil. He doesn't look quite like Drew if he doesn't have some sort of bruise or bump on him. However, the other day, I guess he wanted to share the wealth so he gave his brother and shiner by hitting him in the face with the toddler bible. As a friend said...gives new meaning to the team bible beater. He is certainly fun. I love that my boys love each other so much. When they aren't together they always ask where the other is and want to be together. I pray it stays this way, but will enjoy it as long as it lasts!
As for Jeff and I, we are doing well. As I said today is my birthday. I am officially in my upper 30's, but really this is the happiest time in my life so far. I am truly blessed beyond words. I will write more later when I have more time. I will also post some pictures later this weekend. Love to all and I pray your 2011 has begun well, and continues to be a wonderful year for you.
Only about 8 more weeks until baby boy #3 joins us. We can’t wait! The boys however are more excited about Halloween! They love their costumes. Drew is Boba Fett from Star Wars and Matt is a storm trooper from Star Wars. Once I let them try on their costumes, they didn’t want to take them off. It is fun to see them at this age where they are super excited to dress up! I guess I better my Christmas shopping done ASAP. I might be a little busy once December arrives. Pray I get it all done. 
I pray you are all doing well. Love from Frisco, Tx.
