There we go cleared off and ready to type.......

Well gross best describes my last couple of days...... runny noses(mine included), drool, and whining about teeth. And let me tell you, getting back into a routine while all this was happening was a real treat. We almost got a full night sleep last night Woohoo!!!!! So after nap time we're heading to the gym, I'm in desperate need of a sauna.... I mean work out.

Well where were we you ask? We headed home for a week, and there is not much to write about. I was sick and in bed for half of it, but I did get to work with my sister for a couple days :) I miss spending time with her. The weather kept all the visitors that I managed to get in touch with (before I got sick) away. What a storm!!!!!!! I wish I had gotten pictures of it to post here, but alas I couldn't stay awake long enough. It snowed for 24 hrs strait, I haven't seen this much snow in years. I think you could total the amount of snow that has fallen the entire time I lived in Newbourgh and it would still be less then what fell last weekend!

When I can see over the dirty kleenex to get to the computer I'll let you know how our week went :P

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!!!!!!

Sleep

Sleep I checked it out, and people need it, including bambino's. Waking up early does not make for a very happy morning. I already have a headache, napping is already underway and it's just after noon. So daily routine is out the window..... gone..... Here's hoping they wake up happy :)

A note from before

Help Me!!!!!!

There is someone awake upstairs, I don't know who and I'm not stupid enough to go check. There is no crying or talking, just a thump thump of a bottle being smashed into the side of the crib......it's after nine.....this is my time......who does s/he think they are. It's Bean(Ava) I heard a small hissing sound. How board must she be, laying there in the dark.....maybe I should see what she's doing .....Jen don't head for the stairs......

Things we are doing now.....

• Both of us can eat with a fork
• Both of us run and run
• Most of the time we sleep through the night
• We both think dogs are funny
• We are very good at throwing temper tantrums
• We are good at helping Mommy and Daddy clean up our toys
• Ava calls Ethan "Enan"
• Ethan does shifty eyes very well
• Ava plays with blocks more often then Ethan
• Ethan loves to play cars
• Ava likes to hold your hand when she's walking around with you
• Ethan does not want to hold your hand he wants to wander on his own
• We have picked 2 places to put things away, when we don't know where they go. Inside a Tupperware bin and in the play pen.
• We find opening the DVD drive on the computer very fun, and will take every opportunity we can find to do it.
• Ava likes to watch TV
  
• Ethan does not have patients to watch TV but he likes it on in the back ground
  
• Both of us throw things when we get frustrated
  
• Ava wants to play with DVD's, Ava is not aloud to play with DVD's, this makes Ava throw a temper tantrum
  
• Ethan falls a lot
• Ava grinds her teeth
• We love love love our Daddy, he's the best

Drinking issues

Ava could drink you all under the table, if you were into apple juice that is. The girl is a chugger. She's a champ. I'm actually glad that there aren't any popular alcoholic beverages that have anything to do with apple juice. It means we should be safe till at least preschool.

Drink drink drink....."ohhhhhh juice"
