Guess I should update...its been forever.

Ok so things have been kinda whirlwind lately. Taysen is getting so big...ok ok he is still like 24 lbs but he acts so big. Haha...Rowan is just about 15lbs and she is already 9 months old! She is finally sitting up, but still wont crawl. She still hates tummy time with a passion, but I really dont care, I gotta make her do it! Haha...she will appreciate it when she has enough muscle strength to crawl and walk. ;) I want to get some more pictures of them done soon...just since now she can sit pretty. :) We got her ears pierced when she was 5 months old...and they look so cute. I love little girls with pierced ears. Anyhow, she is a total drama queen and cries at the drop of a hat...but she is also is totally easy to get to smile and laugh. Its crazy she is gonna be a year in a few months! Personally I cant wait...haha. I cant wait until she is at Taysens age...thats going to be so much fun! I really enjoy the toddler age so much. :)

Ok on to Tater. Things have been up and down...he is such a great kid. He just has to look at me to make me laugh. He has such a funny personality. He is just such a goofball! The kid cracks me up. The other day we were swimming at Lindas and he sees a ladybug. I just watched him. He goes right up to it, picks it up, and shows me. I say how cool its a ladybug...then he squashes it. Poor ladybug didnt even know it was coming! I hope it had a will. Oh well ya never know what a kid will do right? So now I am freaking out that he is going to try to pick up a bee or a spider. Ew...that would be so nasty! Boys will be boys! Anyhow, he loves swimming so much. Linda and Bob (Joshs parents) have an inground pool...and the first time we swam in it this year, he was so unsure and was clinging to us...then we took him again a few days later and he couldnt be out for more than 2 minutes! He would want out (by the steps) and then he would run around to the side and jump in! He is so short he goes right under the water. Its sad the kid knows someone will catch him so he doesnt even care that he cant swim. Little booger. He jumped in the deep end one time and I freaked out. But he thought it was hilarious. Note to self...get a lifejacket for Taysen! Then last week we went to another friends house that has a pool...this one is above ground...so he decided as long as we set him on the side rail every once in a while so he can fall face first into the pool, he was happy. Haha...he is a fish. He was in the pool from 1-5 the other day...no breaks...just hanging around with us adults. Skipped his nap and everything. It was so cool. Rowan was in for 20 minutes before she needed a nap...and she slept the whole time. So at least I got a little sun on my shoulders too. Haha...:)

I am going to stop here for now, at least in this particular post. I will post again soon about Taysen's progress with EI...its going good...he likes class now, but we are pretty sure his problems are more than just a language delay. We are working on it at the moment...trying to get things figured out. I will update you later....just because it will be one long post...thats for sure. Hope you are all doing well. :)
