Nothing New...Yet.

I know I haven't updated my blog in a bit, but I'm waiting a few more days until I hopefully have some exciting news to post! (For those of you that don't correspond with me on Facebook, no it has nothing to do with children!) In the meantime, I'll just mention that Samantha has yet another cold. Actually, it may be the same cold she's had for about a month that never really went away, but seems to have come back to life with a vengeance. And if that isn't bad enough, she is so firmly entrenched in the terrible twos right now that I really can't believe it when parents of children who are 3 years or older tell me that the threes are worse. No way. As wonderful and adorable and clever as she is, she is also incredibly stubborn and willful. We suffer a battle of wills every day, usually resulting in the threat of a time-out and immediate compliance. *sigh*

Anyway, stay tuned...

Love the new header - looks great with the blog background.

I hope Samantha is feeling better soon!

Aidan is giving us grief with his two-ness too. Though he is communicating a lot more with signs and yes/no's so that is helping. He's responding quite well to "first ______ then _______." But watch out if I get distracted and can't follow through!

Can't wait to hear the update on the news. Praying for your guys!! Oh, and with 3's being worse than 2's. That was defintely the case with Nate. I have the same feeling it will be that way with Matty although it sounds like he is in the same stage as Samantha. At least we will be in it together!

Absolutely gorgeous header! Wow! Is she beautiful or what with those perfect almond shaped eyes?! Yeah, I'm with Renee on this one--way to keep us hanging!

Hate to say this to you, but 4 yr. was the worse age for both of my boys!!!!! It's like they lose some of the innocence that made the terrible two's really not "terrible". On the bright side maybe that's a boy thing :) Love your header too!!!
