Last Sunday as I was with E getting him to bed, he asked me why I had to go to work. I gave him my usual answer of "so we can have money to buy ___." He responded by saying that when he's 5 I'd be home. I said yes and then he says, "I can't wait until I'm 5." Me too, little one. Me too.
I guess G told my mom the next day that he wanted me to stay home and that only Paul should go to work.
I'm really looking forward to being the mom, wife, and woman I want to be...and nothing else.
E continues to ride his bike. He zooms and rides so quickly that I can't keep up! We practice writing his name, and are working on letter sounds and writing other words. He started soccer last wek and loved every minute of it. I had fun because it was just the two of us. I find that I don't get enough time with just him and me, so it's special when we have the time together. He really loves school and talks about what he does and learns. He's becoming such a better brother and teaches G too.
G is continually surprising us with his vocabulary and actions. He really is just a little copycat of his brother. He still nurses and we will be potty training soon. He loves to draw and color. These are definitely the "terrible twos". Sharing isn't his forte, but biting and hitting are. G can be very thoughtful and will say thank you a lot.
These guys are pretty awesome.
