This and That

THE CURIOUS ONE
So Jeremiah has gone from being content in watching big brothers, to wanting to do EVERYTHING that big brothers are doing : puzzles, blocks, legos, cars, trains, you name it. I came out of the shower this morning and all three were playing together, jeremiah charging forward and his big brothers running away from the *monster*, then turing around to come back for more... everyone was in a fit of giggles and it was pretty cool to see all three of them interacting so well together.

POTTY TRAINING
Jacob has embraced the potty much quicker than I expected. He is doing so well... that "pee pee" treats lasted a mere week.

CLEANING UP
So it was pretty funny the other day when I asked the boys to clean up the playroom; as usual, Jake starts singing his clean-up song. A few minutes later I hear Joshua say, "Jake just because you are singing clean-up, doesn't mean that you are actually cleaning up!"

LADIES MAN
Josh seems to be a social bee at school, when I ask him who his friends are at school, he looks at me very seriously, "Everyone is my friend mommy." How sweet is that? Joshua caught me off guard when I took him to his field trip back in October, and this little girl and him held hands the whole time. HA! At least his picks the cute ones. =-)

Singing Along the Way....

Every Tuesday and Thursday, we get up, get breakfast pack the boys into the car and rush to school. Josh is dropped off by 8:45 while Jake starts school at 9.... When we pull into the parking lot Jake says to me in the little tiny voice, "My school?" as I respond, "Yes honey this is your school", He gets out of the van, grabs his elmo backpack, places it around his neck and sings this little song while bobbin his head the entire way through the parking lot.... it is kinda cute and it helps me appreciate the small things in life. Like going to school :)

Sock in A Haystack?

Jeremiah has this amazing ability to find socks.... I will be giving big brothers a bath and in crawls jeremy with socks in mouth, he will starting digging through a hamper and out he comes with several socks. Mark and I joke that if he was in a room filled to the ceiling with laundry and only one sock, jeremy would find it. What a strange obsession to have.
