Coffee

I like coffee. A lot. I drink a pot day by myself. I normally have two to three cups in the morning and then save the last cup for my afternoon pick-me up. I didn't realize that the boys paid attention to this. Until they started wanting their drinks in coffee cups. They like to drink out of mugs and say, "mmmm, this is some goooood coffee." These two definitely take in everything that we do in this house. It's a good thing we set some good examples for them...most of the time. The random dessert before dinner is good, right??

Oh Boy!

Um, yea. These two are total boys. Lex has decided lately that everything that is super cool is now, "off the hook!!" He's becoming so grown up lately. I"m sure he'll hate reading that I typed this up when he's older, but besides me helping him with his hair, he showers himself now. He's just finished up his first wrestling season. He's not the, um, most agressive person...at all! He laughs continuously throughout the whole match. At least he's having a good time. He'll be starting a short basketball camp soon and then he just got signed up for soccer in the late summer months. He's still not much into girls, which is fine by me! He has one particular one that he says he's going to marry and his reasoning is, "she told me no." This is obviously something that we will need to work on later... Nate, on the other hand, is a total schmoozer with the ladies. He's pretty much going to marry every one he comes into contact with. He's been having playdates with friends from pre-school and really wants to have someone over for a sleepover. I have to try to remind him that not all 3 year olds like to spend the night away from home. It's amazing how much more grown up he seems to be at 3 than Lex was. I guess that's what happens when you learn from your older brother. I am amazed every day that God has given me these two boys to love and nurture. There are days when I want to absolutely crazy and freak out but I have to remind myself just how short this time is with them. I love and cherish the time I have with them. I want to teach them but also have fun at the same time. I am very blessed.
