Crawlin!!!

Wow. Time goes quick! Today Brie started to crawl! I am really sad she is growing so fast. She is such a good baby- very happy and content (Very unlike her big brother!). I wish she could stay little and sweet forever! It's funny how you think differently with each kid. With Dax, we were like Yes! He is crawling! With Ambrie, it's like NO! NO! NO! That means you eat more things, and you are closer to walking, so I will have to soon chase you! (I think its similar to wanting twins as your first kids- what on earth was I thinkinking with that wish!) Brie is a very determined little girl- if she wants something she will do whatever it takes to get it! Like if she sees something on the floor, she rolls until she gets it! She has a stronger personality every day!

Dax is doing pretty well- he is also getting a bigger personality with more words! Everything is "mine" and we are supposed to give him everything he wants! The other night Derik went to put him down for nighttime, and he read the usual 3 books- well Dax always wants more so we make sure there are only 3 books around! Dax got ahead of Derik this time, and when Derik was done with the third, Dax got a huge grin on his face and proceeded to pull out a 4th book from under his pillow! He was so impressed he had thought of that!

Derik and I are pluggin along.......we just had checkout time it was horrible. We will just say most of these guys think cleaning invloves water and paper towles! We are statring to look around and find a place of our own!

Hang in there- It can be overwhelming when you are in the thick of raising your kids and they seem to be everywhere and into everything. Believe it or not this time goes by fast! Checkout time sounds like a drag. Sorry.

Good luck on finding your new place. Your kids are getting so big. Time does go by to fast, enjoy your time with them. Pretty soon they will be gone.

Isn't that the way Derik cleans too? If you just use a paper towel and water that means you don't have to spend so much time doing it and can get back to playing computer games quicker.
