Water parks, Pampered Chef, and Bowling...times are crazy!

What I have learned over the past week:

Alex:
-learning more and more words everyday, including the word yes. He sounds so cute saying it too.
-becoming more aware of his emotions. Two seems to be getting closer each and every day.
-is fearless. Only big dogs scare him. Deep water, people, fast things enthrall him. Oh also ANYTHING Anthony has makes him happy.
-is obsessed with brushing his teeth. "Mom, please teeth." So he can eat the Sponge Bob Toothpaste, can a child poison themselves with toothpaste?

Anthony:
-is learning to spell and write new words daily. I love when he chirps up from the backseat to tell me that he can read Bob off of a sign.
-wants an Ipod and DS for Christmas (seriously already?).
-swims like a champion. At the water park this past weekend he went down all of the slides w/o a life jacket and did amazing. I am talking big water slides that freaked me out.
-does not want to wear superhero underwear anymore. Only plain colored ones but will still wear superhero pajamas-makes me feel better.
-when he was home sick yesterday with the flu from school he let me rock him to sleep for the first time in months.
-has figured out that if you tell the teacher your stomach hurts (today) they call your mom at work to come take you home. But if you want to go to soccer you need to get your butt back in class because your tummy is not really hurting.
-is obsessed with soccer, I love watching him play.

Mom:
-stressed because I had the flu after our water park excursion.
-realized after the last two days that really nothing grosses me out anymore. Weird epiphany, not going to lie.
-is super stoked to get all of her new Pampered Chef gadgets.
-had a great time with Leslie, Stu, and the boys in Alexandria. My favorite part was the cute bartender trying to upsell me on their wine while I was wearing green sweat pants and a hat-HOT! Spent $21 on their house wine, drank his specialty shot, and walked it back to our room to drink it on the balcony with Les.
-loves my husband for cleaning out the garage and pre-winterizing the yard...toys go back to where you belong til spring please.

Dad:
-hot, I was looking at him last night and I still think he is...hot I tell you.
-funny, thought he could help when I was sick but than started to gag. He tried.
-a baby because he has an ingrown nail that needs to be cut out today because his finger is turning neon green. Sounds healthy right?
-reminded me that even though he is taking Anthony to soccer tonight I have to be home so he doesn't miss bowling. Yep my baby is in a bowling league. I told you he is hot!
-is geared up for soccer tonight. He is excited that Anthony is digging soccer.

Yep that pretty much sums us up for the week. Pictures to come later today, praying that I can still save all of the pictures since Alex's birth off of my laptop that has a solid black screen.

Wow you have had a crazy week! Sorry about the flu thing...I can relate. And I don't help much either.
I remember the day when Ryan announced he was over the superhero underwear. I was sad. :(

Well at least with getting the flu early - you will build up immunity and not likely get sick again - something positive from the "sick" week. Sounds like the kids are doing great!!!
