The kids have been crazy and couped up. We have tried to stay busy with play dates, preschool, and trips to the McDonalds's play land. We have seen several flakes and flurries the last few weeks, but nothing has really stuck around.
Brody has been working away from home, on and off for the last few weeks so that has been a bummer. The kids miss him and so do I. We can't wait to get him back home. Single parenting is tough. Even the dog is lonely.
Funny stuff:
Addison and Daddy watched the movie "Hook" (non-animated Peter Pan) and I caught her trying to swing on the curtains. She said, "Mama, I need to learn this stuff so I can be a pirate"! What aspirations :)
Jackson's has started to watch TV - not sure if this is a good thing, but he is really into Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.
Jax has also started to make up his own signs for his fuzzy, night night, and brushing teeth. He is so sweet and adorable. We call him "the hugger" - it is obvious why. Such a cuddle bug.
We have seen Santa twice already - Addie told him she wants roller skates and a Barbie castle with a carriage (she already has the carriage, but asks for it anyway) I think she thinks they have to come together. Thank you TV commercials. Jax wants anything that Addie wants for Christmas because he thinks she is cool:)
They are keeping me busy - some days I feel like a referee - but they both are so sweet most of the time.
