We're Still Alive!

So sorry it has been forever since I blogged! I'm finding it hard to find time for this with watching Ian and my two boys part time, two families I babysit for on the side, spending quality time with Victor (it's been sparse lately), keeping my house somewhat clean and livable, having a social life and oh yeah, closing on a house! We are SOO GRATEFUL that Victor's parents are helping us achieve the goal of securing a house!! It is so perfectly ideal for what we want/need in a house and the location is perfect for me being able to keep and watch my boys as well! I have a feeling the next month is going to be very busy!! We have to pack, clean and move out of this house, while also, fixing, painting, cleaning, prepping and moving into the new house! Not to mention Ian's b-day is right at the end of January... it's going to be a a little crazy, but Victor is the one who will be working the hardest. My Mr. Fix it. Right now, my friend Andrea is in town so I'll be occupied having fun with her :) We're headed up to our friend David's cabin to try and find some snow with her.

What has Ian been up to these last few months?? Well, he has finally been going poopie on the potty again, it's not every time, but it's pretty often. He's also learned the colors yellow, green, pink, red, blue, orange, and white. He can recognize the letters A,B and C. He loves to sing songs! He absolutely flips every time he sees Christmas lights! He calls them Christmas tress... I never even taught him what a Christmas tree was! We pulled up to a store one day that had some in their window and he yelled "Christmas Tree!" So weird, but now he knows what snowmen and Santa Claus are too... We took away the binky almost a month ago. He doesn't ask for it anymore, but he sure takes much longer to fall asleep than he used to. Mommy misses it more than he does I think.

My sister, brother in-law and niece came out for Thanksgiving! That was a great visit and I'm happy Ian got to spend some good time with his cousin. I was finally able to talk about my sister's next baby on the way, because she told my parents once she flew out! I'm hoping for a girl!!

Anyhow, I will be posting some picture of Ian and the family from the last month or two in the next week!
