Slacking

Yes. I've been slacking. It has been way too long since I've updated my blog. And now so much has happened... where do I start? Well I'll start with my kids. Josh just started playing basketball. He had his first clinic last Saturday. Got his jersey and everything. I think this Saturday will be an actual game. May be another clinic though. Either way, he loves it! It's the first time we've enrolled him in anything like this. It really makes you realize how fast he is growing up though. He is doing well in school. He is learning how to read and is doing great at it!
His favorite thing right now is Ben 10. A kid show on cartoon network. He is ALL about Ben 10. Lives and breathes for Ben 10. Did I mention he really likes Ben 10? Oh well, it's all good. At least it isn't the Wiggles. Whew! Still glad that phase is over. I don't think I will EVER get those songs out of my head.
Nicky is doing well and getting more grown-up by the day. He lives and breathes for his DS. The worst time of the day is when the batteries finally die and it has to be charged. He then starts hounding to use my DS. He is a DS addict. He doesn't always even have to be playing it. As long as it is close by and he can hear the sweet sounds of Mario being blasted at the highest volume possible. (Which by the way, I now hate the Mario music & insisted Nathan no longer use it as his cell phone ring). One of the funniest things is when Mandy steals his DS and won't give it back to him. She thinks it is pretty funny too. Nicky, however, does NOT.
Well Mandy just turned one year old. Now that she is walking and even doing her best attempt at running (usually away from Nicky while carrying his DS)- there is no stopping her. She is into everything. Our house is a series of hurdles. Seriously. We have finally installed a permanent child gate into the front room. It will be a sad day when she figures out how to open it. Although she keeps us all hopping she is also a real blessing to our family and brings so much love it's amazing. Josh will be having a total freak out and Mandy will come up to him and hug him. He can't help but get a big huge smile. Freak out over.
As for Nathan and me... we just try to keep up with the kids. After they go to bed and we have some time to ourselves, we like to play World of Warcraft (still trying to hit level 80). We also find time to tease each other ruthlessly. I tease him about having a "girly car". We bought his mom's car... which just happened to be a VW Bug. At least it's silver. But still very very GIRLY. He teases me about ... well everything. The list is long of all my little idiosyncrocies. And being it's my blog... I'm not listing them. hehe.
So there you have it. Blog updated. Now for pictures:
