I really need to blog more often but there are many things that I want to write about that I don't think I am supposed to on this blog. I made another blog that is private...I have to invite you to read it...but I am not using it like I should I guess...anyway

Lots of things have happened. Aaron finally got his first tooth!!! I am a terrible mother and can't remember what day it was...I know it was before my last blog..he had a tooth before he started walking...YES HE IS WALKING!!! He started walking on New Years Day...I think...

Yesterday I was feeding the boys their lunch and Aaron started to cry...I looked over at him and he was signing milk!!! I gave him his milk and he was happy. I love that I can see them learning. Its awesome!!! When I say "peek-a-boo" or "where is Elliott" or sometimes I just have to say "peek" Elliott covers his eyes with his hands. I love it!!! Also yesterday I had the Backyardagains on after the boys nap. They aren't interested in TV but I want them to be so I can not have to be chasing them around all day...anyway...they were actually interested in The Backyardagains so I stood in front of the TV with them so they could see it a little better since the TV stand makes the TV be like 5 ft...a tumbleweed knocked Pablo over and Elliott laughed. It was really cute. I like to think that he found humor in it but I think he was just laughing because thats what he does. They are so much fun!!! All of you need to come over and play for a little bit!!!

My mom brought Aunt Sandy over today in a Henry school bus. That was exciting!!! They were here to help out with the Synagis shot. I can't be here alone on shot day because they cry so hard...someone has to hold the first shot baby and calm that little guy down while I hold teh second baby to get shot. Its terrible!!! I have not heard Aaron cry as hard as he cried today. It might actually be more painful to me than it is to him!!! I will just keep in mind that it would be much worse for them to get RSV (esp. Elliott with every cold making him weeze) and be in the hospital.

A couple days ago I changed the outlets in the boys room so now the things we plug in actually stay plugged in and don't fall out...that is super great!!! The boys are not intersted in cords anymore...so so so so much safer and easier for them to play in their room. Next I get to change our thermostat so our house can be more efficent. I ran into a problem while changing the outlets. I know how to do it...have a bunch of times but our house is strange. We don't have brakers to turn off...you have to unscrew these circles!!! It was nuts. Annie said that she thinks dad can change it to a regular circuit braker thing and it would be safer so hopefully he can find some time to do that for us.

I am not able to think anymore so I guess I am done. I hope you love the pictures of my super cute little boys!!!

That last picture... the hallway almost mirrors the hall in your old house here in Elkhart. I can almost imagine Andrew's voice coming from that computer room at the end of the hallway.
