Default Re: Okay, this is for everyone

Here goes...

Samantha is 9 months old. She sits very well on her own, but hasn't figured out how to crawl yet. I thought that she may be an early walker, but somedays I think that she will piss me off and walk at 17 months like her big brother did. She has certainly discovered her voice, and it's not her 'quiet one'. She shrieks at the top of her pretty little lungs.

She loves to watch other children. Her face lights up when Alex is around. And he loves her to death; he get right in her face and talk's babytalk to her. Very cute!

Alex turned 3 in Sept. He is enjoying pre-K, although he tends to keep to himself since he doesn't speak much French. I know that if it were run in English, they would have to shut him up. He is still into dinosaurs...BIG TIME. And the stuff that comes out of his mouth sometimes...truly amazing. I forget that he is 3.

Potty training...well, that has pretty much gone out the window. I have given up...for now. Sucks, because if I don't check his diaper often, he'll sit it in for hours, even if it's full (can you say gross?). He had a really bad diaper rash the other day, so much so that he was crying when he ran because it was uncomfortable. I may try again soon, but I am very discouraged.

Dh and I have been very busy. He is opening up a new business (he is still employed with his current employer). He has talked about opening up something for a long time now. I am glad that he finally is. It's a golf-based business...I am helping with whatever I can (making & printing brochures, building a database, etc) so that's why I am not on as much as I would like.

As for me, my health is in check. I go for my yearly CT scan in Nov and then for my 4 month blood test in Dec (right before Christmas, which is when I was originally diagnosed). Other than that, I am trying to enjoy my time at home with the kids, while just barely doing enough housework to keep things moving along. Gearing up for Halloween and Christmas, and starting to think about Sam's first birthday in January (I birthday parties ).

That's it...whose next?
