Leaving
Bye Bye Buffalo! I shouldn't be blogging right now when I have so much packing to do. Sometimes I think I just put it off because I hate it SO much. All the decisions are what drive me crazy!! I don;t know what I want to wear to dinner in 5 days, and trying to coordinate the boys, airplane outfits - aaahhhhhh! Anyway, I am pretty excited to get out of this weather. Buffalo has been crazy this year, actually it snowed 3 days ago which was very depressing. I'm usually one of those people that save up all their bitching for August when it is Sahara hot. Steve does all his bitching in the Winter anyway so it works out :). But even I admit I am sick of the cold. SO, Orlando here we come. Sea World to see some whales and maybe Downtown Disney for dinner Sunday and then we board the cruise ship Monday. And I am going to miss those sweet little cheeks on Reidy-roo but he is by far the crabbiest baby. Someone told me "crabby baby, happy toddler" well any time now!!! He is 19 months. We joke if Reid were our first baby, we would have had 1 child. So, it will be nice to not have crabby baby and enjoy the older two for a few days. Last vacation without all of us. I was thinking Florida next year with everybody. It is better for us to stay Stateside with Reid and his seizures anyway. I think papa is going to like only having 1 baby for the week. So here's home next week!

See Ya when we get back!!

Little Meatball Update
How about an update on those three little ones in my life!!
Biggest: Brady (almost 7) is kicking butt in school with reading and math and writing. He is such a smart boy and being a good reader is SO important. Must have been all those books we read when he was little. He is still doing gymnastics and will be playing t-ball this Summer. He still has only lost 2 teeth but he is up to my chest in height. Brady loves to wrestle with his dad but don't let that fool you! That little boy cuddles with his mama on the couch every night, which I just love. He has also been helpig me with some chores at home. He empties all the little garbages in the house and the diaper genie (not his favorite part) and can also clean a toilet with the scrubby wand. He earns $1-2 for this and likes to keep his money in his camouflage wallet. Which he never brings with him to the store. He has also learned to ski this winter with Grandma and Grandpa. He likes to go fast like his Grandpa. Brady likes to watch Scooby Doo and can't wait to ride his scooter this Summer and learn to ride without training wheels.
Middle: Pierce (almost 3)has mastered the use of the potty at home. It is soooo nice to only have 1 in diapers. When we leave the house, it is a pull-up and you betcha he's peeing in it. We have to work on that. Pierce still loves Caillou, Mickey and Curious George. And has just started watching Power Rangers like his bog brother. Pierce loves to sing, especially Christmas Carols and watch anything with Santa or Christmas trees in it. He knows all his numbers and most of his colors. He has a little trouble with red and green. Pierce wants to go to Chuck E. Cheese pretty much everyday. He is obsessed with his daddy. If he bumps his head or stubs his toe he wants daddy immediately to come home and make it better. I just caught him the other day with his arms around his baby brother saying "I love this kid!" which cracked me up. He still refers to himself as P and can be the sweetest boy ever or a little trouble maker. He loves to say "mama catch!" and launch what ever he has in his hand directly at me. I found him in the dark bathroom using his potty and watching his ipad and had to snap a pic.
Littlest: Reid (18 months) has 12 teeth, loves his papa and to run at you and fling himself on top of you. He can say: mama, dada, ball, yeah, papa, bubbles, P, pop and loves to babble all day long. This little one knows exactly how to work an ipad and pull up his favorite show SuperWhy. He likes to pretend he's talking on the phone to papa. He has to have apple juice in his sippy and a bowl of goldfish or he isn't happy. He tends to be cranky some times but is just starting to turn that corner. He gets a kick out his big brothers and can laugh and laugh when they do silly things. Reid is my best eater! He will eat almost anything I serve. He loves to take of his socks and shoes in the truck. And his favorite song we sing is "Tiny Tim the turtle"
Easter was fun with all the boys and I didn't even have to make Breakfast. The Easter Bunny brought candy :)
Our attempt at a family pic was basically a fail. The babies wouldn't let papa put them down so he had no choice but to get in the pic too. We love our papa!!
