Chris: working, working, working. That's pretty much it. Well working and trying to find a new car, which is big ol' pain in the backside.
Sarah: playing with the kids, cleaning, going to the gym, cleaning, planing Enrichment Night (since I'm the Enrichment Leader, ha what were they thinking :), cooking, cleaning, going to play dates, you get the picture.
Madi (aka Belle, Princess Jasmine, Sleeping Beauty or Cinderella, depending on the day): playing princess, coloring princess pictures, reading princess books, planing her princess birthday party (her birthday is in April, she's already planning)
Jax: smiling, laughing, climbing on everything, chewing on everything
And here are some recent pictures:
In the middle of the party, right after Chris blew out his candles and everyone was looking right at him, Madison came down stairs completely NAKED! I guess she was playing dress-up and needed help!
Chris got Rock Band for his birthday, so we've been rocking out quite a bit lately. I've gotta admit, even I love this game. Chris has been teaching Jax a thing or two about being a rock star. But honestly, I think Jax is way too cute to pull off the bad boy rock star look.
We got a family membership to the gym so that I can take Madison swimming. I got her a new swim suit the other day and Madi HAD to try it on that night. She played "pool" in the front room. At one point she got mad at me because I was sitting "in the pool" I had to go sit on the steps instead. She picked out the hat all by herself. What a stylish little girl.
Madi and Austin showed Uncle Sean who's boss when we had the family over for dessert!
Yesterday Madison got a Valentine package in the mail from Grandma and Grandpa Porter. She was THRILLED! They sent her wands and princess Valentines. What more could a 2-year-old ask for. It was also perfect timing because Madison was having a breakdown over her hair. I've had to start threatening to cut it if she won't let me brush it. Last night I had her on the sink and the scissors were in my hand. If Chris didn't like her hair long I would totally chop it all off right now! Luckily Grandma and Grandpa saved the day!
Here' s our bathing beauty at the Rec Center on Saturday. We've got to keep those swimming skills sharp! We're aiming for the Olympics in about 2016. Funny story though, Madison got herself dressed and I forgot to tell her she didn't have to wear panties with her suit, so she wore her cute little undies the whole time we were at the pool :)
And here is our little man. He still does this kind of half crawl half scoot thing to move around the house, which is so funny to watch, but he's climbing like crazy. His favorite toy is the vacuum cleaner. He crawled into the pantry to play with it today and when I took him out he was MAD!
