We're BACK!!!!

Did you miss us? We sure missed talking to you. I think Mama missed having a computer, too. I think I saw her actually get out some paper and a pen to write down some of the things we've been doing.

THANK YOU, UNCLE EV-RETT!! This is an awesome computer!!!!!!!

So, now do you want the long or short version of what we've been up to the past 2 months? Ummm...how about somewhere in between?

An-jew will be 11 months old in about a week and he...
1. drinks from his own sippy cup
2. claps his hands and play Pat-a-cake
3. helps put toys in the box (course he likes to take them out again...and put them back...and take them out...)
4. stands up and let go for a few seconds without falling over (Daddy said it won't be long before he figures out how to walk)
5. rolls balls across the floor
6. plays the musical instruments we got for Christmas
7. plays Peek-a-boo with his blanket
8. climbs the steps (he's been doing that since the beginning of December) (I like to climb up steps too. And I'm faster than An-jew.)
9. has 6 teeth

I'm 2!! (almost 33 months old) and I can...
1. tell Daddy stories about what I did while he was at work
2. climb into my car seat
3. take my hat, coat, and shoes off...and put them away
4. take my socks and pants off by myself
5. pull my pants up by myself
6. help un-decorate the Christmas tree (well, just the bottom part...the part that An-jew and I could reach...while Mama was at the store and Daddy was in the shower...the part where the candy canes were.) (Did I ever tell you how much I love candy canes??!?)
7. turn the tv on and off
8. help brush my teeth

What else can I tell you about?

Not so long ago it was Christmas. After I got up from my naps I would help Mama turn on all our Christmas lights. And we listened to Christmas music. And we said Happy Birthday to Jesus. And we opened presents. And we saw candles at church. And we rode the train to Center City and got to see little trains and more Christmas lights and hear more Christmas music.

And last week I got sick. Mama let me lay on the couch and watch Elmo and Veggie Tales and Clifford. And she gave me some special juice to drink. Then An-jew got sick. Then Mama. Then Daddy. An-jew got to drink some special juice too. We're all done being sick now.

What have you been doing?
