Oh, it's been so long....

I know it's been so long since I've posted. Sam gets up at 6:30a, Jack's been going to bed around 9:30p, and by the end of the day, I'm just pooped. Plus, let me say that it takes FOREVER to upload pictures to this site. You have to pick each pic individually. If the folks out there in blogger land are listening, please fix that!!

But anyway, since my last post, Jack is just talking more and more every day. He's started to use the words "actually" and "already" to say things like, "Actually, mom, the car faces this way." Or, "Actually, I think Dad did drive the green truck to work today." Or "I already said I didn't want that!" He's cracking me up. We've been reading the Grinch Who Stole Christmas a lot, and there's one line in the book where the Grinch is "nervously drumming" as he looks down on Whoville. The other night I was holding Jack and he was playing with my hair and he said, "Look mom, I'm nervously drumming!" We also caught him walking around the room the other day saying, "Damn it, damn it, damn it." Good work, parents.

Sam is great. Still teething. He has 3 teeth that are working their way in and are bugging him. He had a double ear infection a while back, but now he's mostly healthy and just hanging out. Still no interest in crawling at all.

Here's a link to a web album I created of some pics from our East Coast trip back in Oct. You shouldn't have to log in to see it. Just click on the link and it'll take you right to the album. There are 83 pics in it. If you click on an individual picture, you can download it.

But here are 2 I just wanted to share. I love this one of Jack and Walt on the pier on their boat ride.


And this one... I don't know if you can see it, but the clock reads 9:54. That's a.m.! I can't believe my kid slept in that late! Guess he takes after his dad.
