Got a little video of Will yesterday morning. He was still waking up so he seems a little out of it, but makes the video that much funnier. =) The second is a picture of Henry’s new favorite activity.  The girls at school haven’t told me if he’s trying to do this there…hopefully not! Ha ha.

My sweet little boy has turned into a monster. I’m not sure what happened…Will was my sweet baby…my little Angel.

Well, that little angel has sprouted horns and a forked tail and chaos has ensued in our house. I’ll give you some examples. Our new phrase that is yelled atleast 100 times a day is “NO, WILL!” I was running late last Monday trying to get Henry ready for school. After I finally got everything together, I couldn’t find the baby. I yelled his name a couple times but he was nowhere to be found – which of course means he’s getting into some serious trouble. Finally I heard something strange in the bathroom and looked in. Here’s William, soaking wet standing in water all over the floor. SOMEHOW, I have NO freaking clue how, he had broken off the toilet seat and climbed in the toilet. I couldn’t freaking believe it. So I yelled something (expletive ridden, I have to admit) and ripped his clothes and diaper off and was late getting Henry to school.

A couple days later, I can’t find him AGAIN so Henry and I break out in a search party and find him hiding in the guest room chomping down on a crayon. As soon as he saw me he threw the crayon at me and tried to run away. THE SAME DAY, he steals a marker from Henry’s crayon bag, gets the top off and starts munching down on that. It looked like he had eaten an octopus – his mouth and teeth were totally black…and I’m sure you can imagine, his diaper changes were quite interesting.

A few nights ago, Tommy’s feeding him some chunks of finger food and Will decides he doesn’t want it, has a tantrum and throws the food at Tom. Tom scolds him and William proceeds to spit his food out at him. Last night, we’re working out and we hear some weird coughing sounds coming from Will. He’s sitting over by the cat door and we find him stuffing cat litter in his mouth.  I’m curios if anyone has invented a baby straight jacket?

I never thought I would be saying that our sweet boy is now our older one. Henry has turned into a love bug. He has a huge crush on his teacher and has written her a couple love notes already. He makes sure to hug her every day before he leaves. Man, he is gonna get his little heart broken so much when he gets older. =( I’m not looking forward to his crushes on girls. UGH. He loves school and has been doing so well. His new obsession is the planets. He’s learned how to pull up Google Earth on Tommy’s laptop and looks at Mars, Earth, the sky and the moon. It’s crazy to see him sitting on the couch all focused on the computer. He’s so much like his dad. =)

Other than my hellion child and Henry, things have been busy. We’re trying to get all our home improvement projects done and out of the way. Our big one is the roof which we’ll bust out this winter. Then, it’s just the little stuff that we’re doing here and there. It’ll be nice to get them done.

Anyway, sorry again for the delay in posts – we seriously have been busy. I’ll try and keep up better ( I know, I know, I always say that). Hope all is well with everyone out there.

***UPDATE*** As you can tell, I am AWESOME at posting this stuff on time. So this post was supposed to go up like 2 weeks ago but I was lazy and didn’t download the pictures. Well, during the interum, we went and visited my mom up in NM and worked on her house. While we were there, Will fell on the fireplace mantle, busted his lip and chipped his tooth. It was so sharp, I was worried he’d bite another hole in his lip so I had to file it down with a nail file. It’s not too obvious, but it’s there if you’re looking. Also, Henry decided that he wanted to climb over the baby gate at the top of the stairs and instead broke it  tumbled down half of them and slammed into the wall. He was fine – just scared…and so was Uncle Joe. HAHA. I swear these children are going to be the death of us.

Once again, I apologize for the long hiatus in posting pictures of the little ones. We are both super busy but truthfully I’ve just been lazy about it. I promise I’ll try harder to get more of these up. =)

So we hired a maid…not really, but Henry has insisted on vacuuming the house whenever it needs it, which is actually really nice because he does a pretty good job! He also uses the swiffer in the kitchen to clean up the mess I make after sewing. He’s become a very responsible and helpful big brother. He’s constantly keeping Will in check and out of trouble. Although the other day, Will tried to get into the dishwasher and Henry tried to get him out only to be met with shrill screams and fierce resistance. Henry got mad, screamed “Bad baby!” and proceeded to spank him 3 times. I almost died and of course explained that WE are the only ones who can mete out the discipline around here but he just kept his eye on Will and eventually coaxed him out into the living room. Will LOVES being around him and is always following him around – and is able to keep up better now that he’s walking!

Our big trip to VT is just around the corner and we are really looking forward to it. I’ll try and get a couple more posts up before we leave. Hope all is well with everyone out there!
