Things to Remember

The kids grow really fast....and change so quickly. There are some things I need to write down so that I never forget how crazy they make me!

1. Sadie has an intense desire to walk...but she can't yet! She whines and cries until we give in, hold those little fingers, and do laps around the house with our backs hunched over until she's so tired she can't stand anymore. I remember this with Skyler...PAINFUL for me, but such a milestone for Sadie. Bittersweet?

2. Sadie has started saying more words; bubble, peek-a-boo, tree, dog, milk.

3. Skyler, my love. He has decided he officially hates milk. All milk. Chocolate milk for my little sweet tooth? Um, not having it. I can't say I blame him because I also hate it.

4. Milestones for Skyler? Talks so clearly now. The director at his new school was so impressed with how clearly he spoke to her. If only she knew what a struggle it was for him to have his complicated thoughts understood by the adults. Now when we don't understand him, he rolls his eyes and says 'never mind', as if we are the ones with the issue if we can't understand. I LOVE HIM....he is so me:)

4. Yesterday Lilly (our housekeeper) was here. She has known Skyler since he was in the belly. He told her yesterday that he was going to Florida (yeah, like in two months!). Lilly, being the sweet woman she is, said how wonderful it was and asked if she could go with him. Skyler's answer? "No, nana and papa already have a cleaning lady in Florida." Nice....
