I didn't realize how long it has been since I posted on our blog. I have a pile of sticky notes on my night stand with funny things written that my boys have done over that past several months, so that I can remember to put them onto the blog. I think I will start with my baby Luke. He has really been growing up a lot lately. He now has 12 teeth and is loving having some of his molars to chew up his food. He is like his brother Mavic and LOVES fruit and is like his brother Hunter and LOVES chocolate. He will now go to the pantry door and just grunt or scream until I open the door for him to get a snack. He loves to give kisses and even makes the "MMMM" sound when he does it - a mama loves that! He LOVES his brothers and he has learned from them how to wrestle (I mean he will actually dog pile them if they are on the floor). He has also learned from them how to be WAY loud - I now feel like I am in a nutty house. Luke is speaking all over the place. Some of the words I can decipher are: "Ta-Da, Bye-Bye, Hello, All Done, Thank You, Dadda, MOOOMMMM". Lucas LOVES people, animals, and being outside. He loves to give people loves and if I let him he would love an animal to death. He screams if others get to go outside and he doesn't - basically he just wants to be where the party is at.
On to my innocent boy - Mavic. He is continuing to develop and learn. He is speaking more and starting to understand us a little more. I do think he knows what is going on more than he lets on. I love and not love how he is so sneaky. Over Christmas he went under our Christmas tree and took a present into a our bedroom and quietly shut the door so nobody would hear or see him opening it. Another time he went down into our basement and stripped down to nothing to go #1 on our treadmill and all over Spencer's shoes. Lucky for him he is too sweet and cute for me to stay mad at him :) He is still loving school and loves his bus drivers; he gives his bus drivers (Debbie and Vicky) loves or kisses every time when they drop him off at home. He LOVES to ride his bike and has to ride it everyday before he gets on the bus. The only problem with this is that he REFUSES to zip up his coat, wear his gloves, or wear a hat, so when he rides outside he almost turns into a Popsicle. The last thing is that Mavic loves to wear his brother's scout shirt and handkerchief, he even insists on wearing it to school. He just wants to be like Hunter and Hunter actually loves that he wears it. I will try and remember to take a picture of him wearing it because it looks like he is wearing a dress.
Now onto the BEST older brother I could ever ask for for my younger boys - Hunter. He has really grown up in the last few months. He is SO good at sharing with his younger brothers and is always amazing me with his compassion. The other day his friend's grandpa passed away and he wanted to make him cookies and even wrote him a card - I hope he never loses his thoughtfulness. He is loving being a cub scout and has really enjoyed working on his wolf. This week he gets to go on his first scout field trip and it is to the Police Station - he is SO excited. Scouting has been the best thing for Hunter. He has learned how to do things that he wouldn't otherwise have done and it has helped him get out of his comfort zone. I couldn't ask for a better program for him. He still loves playing with Legos and he plans to be a Lego Designer when he grows up. He even told us that he would hook us all up with whatever Legos we want - I can't wait for that day to come! He loves to watch TV with his mom and dad late on Friday nights. He loves the Gold Rush shows and the shows that show when people do dumb things and get hurt. This has been my favorite year with Hunter so far - he is fun to hang out with.
Well, now I just need to post a bunch of pictures to catch up, so I should be caught up in a month :)
