Walking at Eleven Months!

What a difference a week can make. The boys are walking so well thanks to cell phones and remote controls to motivate them! Daddy calls them zombies because they walk with their arms out in front of them. I have been trying to catch them on video but as soon as they see the camera they forget how to walk. I was able to get this little snippet tonight and had to share! They decided to ham it up for a second and share another of their favorite tricks... head stands! Such show offs when they are in the mood! Enjoy!

September 2009

Catching up!
We have been crazy busy the last 5 months. Sadly the blog is seriously behind. I am giving up precious sleep to get it back up to speed!
Enjoy!

Alex and Jack are freshman! So far highschool is going well. Alex is 15 and will be 16 in December. OMG the idea of my son behind the wheel of a car scares the s&#t out of me. He is a full blown teenager. Friends, girls, music, and tv are all he thinks about. He is on the tennis team at school and his first progress report was great. Jack is 14 and is playing baseball. He too is a typical teen. He has a girlfriend and would spend every second with her if we let him. I can't get used to the idea of my boys growing up. It's all happening too fast!



Campbell and Cooper are 11 months old. Wow how time flies. In the last few months they have grown so much so fast. Campbell is walking. He takes as many as 17 steps. Cooper isn't far behind he takes about 5 before falling and clapping for himself. I love the expressions on their faces when they walk. The big proud smiles while trying to use every muscle (even their facial muscles) to balance themselves! Campbell has 6 teeth and Cooper has 4. Anyone who dares to eat in their presence should be prepared to have them stand in front of you like a couple of little birds waiting for a bite. They love music. For those parents who don't think babies should watch TV, they would be mortified at our house! The boys love Noggin (It's preschool on tv). They don't really sit and watch the shows but they will stop whatever they were doing when one of the songs comes on. Campbell likes to dance and Cooper claps his hands. Cooper has figured out how to turn the tv on and off which cracks me up expecially when Daddy is trying to watch football! I think he knows how funny mommy thinks it is! They both play Patty Cake, Peek a Boo and Itsy Bitsy Spider. They are so much fun. I can't believe they are almost ONE! :( It's going by soooo fast.

As for other news... we are expecting baby Surprise in early February. I am 19 weeks pregnant (already). Everything is going well. When we get a good ultrasound picture I will post it. We are waiting to find out the gender. Jack wants to know but I think that the pregnancy was a total surprise so why not keep the theme going? We have an ultrasound at the end of this month and Jack feels confident that he will be able to figure it out on his own. He said "I know what a penis looks like and I only have boys." He has also said that he thinks it's probably a girl because I am moodier than I was last pregnancy. ;) I am happy either way. I just want a happy healthy baby!
