Warm Winter

The weather has been warm despite being mid-December. There has been sun amongst the wind and overcast sky. We have been trying to take advantage of this with outdoor activities, crafts, and friends. We are super busy and have yet to find a place to move into, but we have been able to enjoy each other. Though we are all still adjusting to a new type of routine/understanding, I think it has been going pretty well.

I have been trying to accommodate Lucian as much as possible and encourage him to play. We have been working on writing and pronunciation. Every single day he gets a little clearer. I know it is frustrating for everyone, but we have been doing our best. We love him dearly and can only teach and encourage him. Right now he loves angry birds, super mario maker and cartoons, imaginative play, and knock knock jokes. He also slightly obsessed with saying the word butt. His imagination is amazing, People would wish to be only half as imaginative and creative as this amazing kid. Now lets hope he will survive on his favorite meal of cheese and turkey crackers with a side of blueberries. I think it's a well rounded meal ;-)

Apollo has been mostly sleeping. When he is awake he likes to be upright. He has been strengthening those legs by walking (with assistance obviously) around the room. He is also at the point where he can smile voluntarily.  I can't wait to see what is in store for us next.

Yay for little boys!

6 weeks

Well, we have officially survived the first six weeks of our family expansion. Thanks to family and friends for all the love and support. We have been trying to adjust to all the changes. New baby, new work schedule, etc. It hasn't been easy for any of us but we are certainly surviving. I am looking forward to the holiday season. I envision baked goods in our future. It's fun and it helps me relax. Plus the results are delicious.

I will have to post an end of the year update for Lucian and Apollo to show what they are up to and what their current likes are. It takes me a bit of time to do updating and it might be little by little, but it will get done. I started Apollo's basic information page so make sure to check out his stats. I will be updating pictures sometime this week so check back often. I think I will be starting an additional page to keep the single pictures of them separated. Apollo is getting fussy, so I will update more in the near future. Thanks for continuously visiting us.
