Merry Christmas to me! A new laptop and a main goal of 2018 is to update/blog more regularly because it's the best way I know how to write down what's going on with our family and our 3 (!!!) boys.
Speaking of- has Owen Matthew been introduced here yet? I don't think so! He was born September 12 and has been our family's most prized (new) possession ever since. Grant and Tyler LOVE their brother- sometimes a littttttle too much.
Tyler is almost 4.5 and Grant is almost 2.5 and they are really starting to become 2 peas in a pod. The older Grant gets, the more they play together in more elaborate schemes. It's (usually) fun to observe.
Things Tyler says-
patter-in (learning patterns in preschool)
"I'm not your friend!" (I think it's the worse insult he can come up with these days. He uses it in his most frustrated moments!)
Things Grant says-
S is a hard sound for Grant so nake (snake), nack (snack), etc etc etc although he gets quite distressed if we say back to him "Do you want a nack" He KNOWS it sounds wrong when we say it...even though we are copying how he is pronouncing it.
Things Owen says-
NOTHING yet assuming crying and cooing don't count! But he's learning how to laugh so every now and then he gives the start of a little laugh. Quickly followed by the hiccups, almost like his body doesn't quite know how to do it yet!
I can't make up for all of the lost time in one fell swoop so I'm mostly planning to start from today and update more frequently than try to catch up on the past 6 months (sorry Owen, the poor 3rd child who doesn't get monthly updates).
