catch up time....

I actually don't know who reads/checks this anymore....but I am a slow poke.

So, just a couple of highlights about my boys:

Rowen:
Getting SO big, 2 and a half! He speaks and understands like a 4 year old. He was adamantly telling me the other day (like 20 times until I got what he was saying) that "daddy lives in sugarhouse!" He told me yesterday, "Do you want to hear my story? Once upon a time there was a bad guy. I saw him. I fight him. I happy. The End." The other day Rowen saw me have a frustrating moment, and he asked me, "Mommy, you happy?" It made me melt. He is very in tune, very understanding and very forgiving. Also becoming a terrible 2. All of a sudden, my sweetest little guy ever, makes sure you know he means "no". Here we go. Oh, and tonight he wore underpants for the first time ever (for like an hour) and didn't have an accident! Yippeeeee!

Will:
William will graduate from the children's center preschool at the end of may. Just in time (no coincidence) for the fun summer program at daycare (more field trips, swimming lessons, etc.) He is learning how to handle his very intense emotions....telling me yesterday that he needed to go on a walk with me because he wanted to talk about being sad. HUGE breakthrough! Now we still need a huge breakthrough with potty accidents.....but someday it will come. Someday. Hmmm.....still into princesses and pink stuff, and transformers and killing bugs and stuff. But learning to be gentle with worms. He is very proud of his knowledge and excitement about the planets....he will gladly tell you that mercury is the closest to the sun and is the hottest. He is a smart smart kid, always wanting to know why I think something or why the world is the way it is.

That's the update! Let me know if you are reading this in the comments, so I know if I should try to blog a bit more. Thanks!
