NO GIRLS ALLOWED!!!

Our home is a boy home! It is filled with play tool chests, trains, superheros, and pirate treasures…

It has been raining here for the past few days and our activities have been limited to indoor only. To keep our active guys busy we have created a ‘Rainy Day House’. Our home has been retrofitted to incorporate a fire station, an obstacle course, and a rainy day fort. We’ve spent all of our time playing with these in the past 72 hours. We’ve also watched Peter Pan more times than I can count…I’ve never seen William (or Mike) giggle so much in my life. It has been a blast…What would we ever do with girls?

Smart Guy

William was watching the rain fall this morning out of our back door. He turned to me and stated that “water from the pool evaporates and goes into the sky, then it rains and falls on the ground”. I was shocked and amazed at his statement (especially his knowledge of the word ‘evaporate’), that is until he said, “then Super Caillou flies through the air and gets the bad guys”… at least he’s learning a little something from Caillou…

He then asked, “Mommy, why is thrundrer is so loud a sound?”

Update

Sorry that it has been so long since we have posted/written. I’ve had to take things a bit more slow these past few weeks and will continue to do so until the new baby arrives. We are all doing well and we are quickly approaching the arrival of our new little guy.

William is getting bigger by the minute! He’s talking up a storm and loves to tell long elaborate stories about EVERYTHING. He continues to love reading, Superheroes, fire trucks, and his trains. And recently has really begun to enjoy creating art projects, drawings, and paintings. William has gone through a growth spurt and can now reach onto the countertops with ease – cool for him; not so cool for us! He constantly amazes us with new vocabulary words and is grasping new and difficult concepts with ease.

I will continue to post/write as much as possible in the coming weeks.

Pizza and a Movie

Friday night was family night for us this week. We made our own pizza with William’s favorite toppings (mushrooms, olives and tons of cheese) and watched a special Spiderman movie that Wm chose on his own from Blockbuster. We had a lot of fun together!

My Special Friend

William has a very special friend…his Grampa! William and Gpa speak the same language and have a very special bond.  Wm loves the times that Gpa comes to play. This past visit, as you can see, was no exception.

Super William

Gma made William a very special Christmas gift this year. Since Wm loves his superhero men so much, Gma made Wm his own Super Cape. William has spent time in his cape every day since it was given to him.

More Christmas

We are so fortunate to have families that we truly love and love spending time around. Our Christmas season continued through the New Year when Wm’s grandparents came for a 5 day visit. During their stay were able to have yet another Christmas, to celebrate the New Year, and to share a lot of giggles. Mike and I were also able to have a date night on New Year’s Eve while Gpa/Gma took Wm out for a special dinner. We really appreciated the time, especially since it will probably be our last night out before the new baby arrives. All in all, it was a fun 5 days that won’t be forgotten anytime soon. Christmas - 2009.
