Life is good




Okay so I apologize for JUST NOW updating this. Hopefully noone was wondering whether we made it through Ike or not. We did fine, lost power for a few days but other than that we were good. We consider ourselves very lucky. Aiden slept through the whole thing:)


We are convinced Aiden will be a professional wrestler since he weighs almost 20 pounds! He is our little meatball:) He likes to sit up and talk and trys to put everything in his mouth. He is full of smiles:) Daniel has officially decided that he will train to be the super hero IceMan and he just needs to figure out how he will make the ice.


Richard and I are house hunting and put down our first offer today! We officially felt like real grown-ups and walked out of there thinking "Um, did you understand all that stuff about ESCROW?" ha! We will keep you posted.


Hope everyone is doing well. Love you!!!

Ike

Okay seriously? The PANIC that has taken over my office about this hurricane is overwhelming! And for me this means panicking even moreso than I do on a regular basis with my normal day to day anxiety. Should we evacuate? Should we stay? How long will we be without electricity? Why is my company STILL keeping us at work today? Will it be like Rita and totally shift in another direction? Will it be like Katrina?

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

We will be hunkering down at Papa's house Friday night and possibly Saturday night depending on electricity and the weather. We plan to bring lots of reading material and lots of diapers for Aiden...ha! I will blog about the outcome on Monday...everyone be safe!!!

Big Decisions...

This past weekend Daniel did what I think may have been the cutest thing ever...he stumbled out of his room Sunday morning after a long nights sleep and he staggers out of his room holding on to his blankie and he has this puzzled look on his face...here is the conversation:
Ci Ci (this is what he calls me): Daniel, what's wrong?
Daniel: Ci Ci (he is almost in tears) I just can't decide what I want to be when I grow up:(
Ci Ci: Oh Daniel honey, you don't have to decide that today, you have plenty of time! You can be anything you want to be!
Daniel: I just can't decide whether I want to be a Jedi or a super hero.
Ci Ci: Oh Daniel, that is a hard choice but don't worry, you will pick one soon enough.

3 hours later...Daniel decided he would be a super hero and his name will be IceMan and he will make Ice everyday:)

This is why I love children...this was his BIGGEST concern. They are so innocent and so beautiful:) Meanwhile Aiden was trying to pull his sock off and that to him was the biggest challenge in his life.
I love my boys!
