It's been a while

So, have you been worried about us? I have no good excuse for not blogging. I just really haven't been in the mood to sit down and recap what's been going on. I have lots of pictures to bring you up to date so let's just take a picture walk.

After visiting with the Koseks, Mommy realized that some things had to change.


Claire was not on her best behavior and we had been giving into her way too much. It's true when they say, "Give an inch and they will take a mile". As soon as we got home we took away both her paci and sweater. No real secret to how we did it. The sweater was simple, I just told her NO and was very firm. The paci was a little different. The fairy came to visit while she was at Nanny's and took her paci and left her a play guitar. She has been fine every since!!




Claire is a very head strong 3 year old. Whoever said that the two's were terrible hadn't been around a 3 year old:o) We have been working on following directions and listening. Who would have thought that positive reinforcement would do the trick(thanks Kim!) Along with that she has been spending a lot of time with her Daddy.

I love this picture because she saw Eric with his hat on and she ran to her room to find hers. She is turning into a little Daddy's girl:o)

We also celebrated Bruno's first birthday. Any excuse for some cake:o)


Before we started back to school(which was this past Tuesday) we met Brodie at the theater to see the Veggie Tales movie. These are the two cutest kids ever. Im a little worried that they are both already talking about marrying each other. I've been informed by my Mom that Claire has mentioned a few times that she is going to marry him. And Julie said that Brodie said that he was going to marry Claire and they would ride off in his truck.


So that's what we have been up to. She started school this week and I have lots of pictures to share. That will be another post...hopefully sooner than later.
