We have a new tooth!

Carter FINALLY popped his first tooth! It's his bottom right. This explains the fussiness, runny nose, sleepless nights, crying fits, ear grabbing, and 'only wanting mommy' moments we've been experiencing over the past couple weeks. Well, he does great for Daddy when I'm gone, but the moment I walk through that door he won't let me do anything else but hold him. He seems under a better disposition now, so it's been nice. Although, I forgot his appointment for his flu shot booster...oops. I have yet to re-schedule. I should probably do that... Another Carter adventure is that we are starting to ween him from booby to bottle! He's now finally taking a bottle from me and he gets about 1/2 the day of me and 1/2 the day of formula. We've tried cereal and oatmeal, and he still doesn't want anything to do with it...well sort of. He still thinks it's really funny and just spits it all out. He'd rather drink his bottle. Oh well, I'll just keep plugging along with it!

Evan's doing great in preschool, he had his Valentine's party and he really enjoyed passing out his litte race car valentines with a sucker attached and receiving Valentine's from the other children in his class. He came home and emptied his 'loot' onto our couch and I couldn't believe it! It was like he dumped out his Halloween bucket! Anywho, he's really starting to open up and talk more. When I picked him up one morning with Mason and Carter in tow, the teacher stopped me and told me that she actually had to tell Evan to 'be quiet'! It was a GOOD thing, and she laughed when she told me. She was just happy that he's finally coming out of his shell. Now he's been talking about his friends he plays with, but cannot remember their names (poor kids!) and how much fun he's having. He is also really into our Wii. He absolutely loves bowling, and he beats Brian and myself all the time. He got a score of 212!!! It's really fun to watch him.

Mason's also doing really well. He still seems to crack us up every day with some funny statement, silly motion or hilarious story. Some funny Mason moments include when he's doing a magic trick and he puts one hand on his belly and the other one in the air, takes a bow and says 'sank you sank you'. This next story is a little weird, but regardless it's funny...Mason is now potty trained, but he still needs some assistance. Well, when Brian's home and takes him potty, Brian spits into the toilet (I don't know why, it must be some 'farmer' thing that's still in him) but anyways, Brian always says 'who did that?' and Mason always replies 'raccoons...raccoons are naaauuuggghhhty.' We have not a single clue where he got this from, but it's so funny and every time he says it we can't help but laugh.

That's about it for now, I'm hungry so I'm going to get a snack. Not like anybody needed to know that, but this is my blog and it's about my thoughts, so there you go. Until next time...
