Sorry I haven't been around much lately, my boys are keeping me busy.
I am still up to my elbows in potty training. Jackson has been doing really well and only has to wear a diaper at night now. Lately he's been fascinated with "splashing the water" (peeing standing up), so I spend a lot of my time mopping and cleaning the toilet. Thankfully, his aim is quickly improving.
Patrick has really started to move and explore this past week. He's pulling up on everything and trying to climb the stairs. He has started to talk a lot more and loves to make lots of noise and different sounds. He also discovered his tongue so he sticks it out all the time and tries to blow raspberries.
Our new tradition is to have a dance party every afternoon. 4:00 p.m. is definitely a low point of the day for me. I'm usually exhausted and anxious for the calvary (Alex) to arrive, so I've started to play dance music very loudly and all 3 of us dance to help distract us from our whiny, annoying feelings until Daddy arrives. Dancing for Jackson involves lots of spinning and jumping and Patrick contributes with a lot of arm flailing.
I heart them.
