Listen babies

Derek has been quite the entertainer lately. He grabbed his Elmo piano book, started playing the keys, and singing along. Listen babies he says I am singing!

Like Mike

Like Mike, I want to be like Mike!

D earned a train

Derek decided he wanted to wear unders and he did. There really have not been many accidents. He loves to tinkle on the big potty. He has been a bit reticent about #2. While we were at Target, he saw a train he wanted. I told him he could have it if he pooped on the potty. Several days later, the train was his. This has been so easy. This is why we waited until he was ready!

Clifford Day

Derek had a great time at school for Clifford Day and came home wearing fun ears. Apparently there was a nose too that was left behind so D used his hands to show it.

9 month check-up

Will and Nate had their 9 month check up yesterday (a bit late). They are each 13.5 poinds. They are in the less than 5% for their measurements which is consistent for them. They are doing fine developmentally. It was a good appointment. Good job Will and Nate.

Baby bath time

Will and Nate usually love their baths. They kick, wiggle, and giggle. I don't get pics because it is a 2 man job. MIke has given them every bath. I assist with dressing. We have a great system going.

Can you tell who is who? Will is on top.

The 2nd week of school

This was supposed to be the first week of school post but I didn't do it on time. Derek is going to preschool on Mondays and Fridays. He loves it. He loves teachers Jessy and Laurie. He also had Jessy last year. We love his preschool and the way they love our D.

Will and Nate are now going to their child care program on Wednesday. This means D and I have a special morning each week. It is so much fun. We do special things that are hard to do with the littles in tow. D's favorite thing is to ride the fire truck cart at Whole Foods so we have done that both times (did you know that kids get free cookies there as well). Thank you teachers Laurie and Liz for loving our boys. Will and Nate have not shed a tear yet during these mornings! They do seem to be eating their way through the morning but they are happy!

I just love the deer in the headlights look!
