Big News

First, the house is officially up for sale today!! I thought we'd never get to this point, but we are finally here. Our agent is sure that we will sell it no problem. I hope she is right.

Secondly, for those of you that don't already know, I have been selected to be on the show That's Clever on HGTV!!!!!!!!!!! If you have never seen the show, it features crafters across the country and shows them making something crafty. I am very excited, nervous and very stressed. So between cleaning house, chasing the kids, coming and going, I will also be trying to prepare for the big shoot. They will be coming in 2 weeks!!!!! So, unfortunately, I will be unable to post very much during this time.

I will post more pictures of the boys as soon as the craziness lets up.

A little side note: Isaak is walking full force now- getting into everything that he can!! Not very helpful when you are trying to keep the house perfectly clean!! He's so cute though, how can I get upset!

What a cute little guy!!

Watching Daddy outside.

How could you not want to take a big bite out of these legs and nibble on those little toes!!!! YUMMMMM!

A wishlist for E & I

I made a "wishlist" link in the sidebar to the left (just under the flickr pictures) so that everyone could see the things that Super-E has been asking for, books that we don't have- but would like, toys that I-guy might like, etc. It's just a rough list to remind myself of things that we like and also for those special occasions when everyone is asking me for gift ideas. Love & hugs!!

My Super Hero

A super cape for my super E. I made E this cape so that he could run around and be SUPER! He says that he helps people and animals that are in trouble. No prompting from me- I swear! He's just that kind of guy. He has his super goggles on too. They help him see Sinah and Kerafy better (his imaginary friends). Does that mean he can sing things that aren't really there better? Hmmm.

Anyway, he's been zooming around the house all day with his super cape on. You can see bigger versions of these pictures here. And you can see how I made his cape here.

A sleepy boy

This is what happens when a certain boy insists that he does NOT need a nap when a certain mommy knows that he is very very tired. This happens after a long morning of "shop" where we put price stickers on lots of toys and then buy them with fake money. Then we play on v-smile for a long time and then do activity books. He asked me for a tortilla while I was folding laundry and when I walked by, 5 minutes later, he was asleep!!! Ohhhhh! Isn't he just so sweet.

I-guy had his one year wellness appt. today. He's doing great! Here are his stats:

ht. 31 1/4 inches- 90th percentile
wt. 25 lbs- 80th percentile
head circumference: 47.8 cm- 90th percentile

Yep, He's still a big boy. No weight gain in the past three months, but it's probably because he's very active and he's been sick twice in the last month.

More stuff about I-guy at his one year mark:
1) not walking yet but making attempts on his own.
2) has seven teeth now!
3) says kitty, mama, & dada.
4) nods yes and no when you ask him questions,
5) he loves music.
6) he loves to dance.
7) he knows where his nose and teeth are.
8) still breastfeeding 3-4 times every day.
9) he likes to climb.
10) he'll eat just about anything you give him,
11) he's been sleeping through the night, and
12) he'll give you kisses and smiles whenever you ask!!
