Sick Day-- Bubbles!

I am at home with my poor little booger, Jacob. He has a stomach bug (which means I will have it in two days-yay). So in honor of my booger, I show you a clip of him experiencing bubbles on Sunday. It's quite exciting (well, not really, but I am too tired to be witty).

Ooooh family, all gather 'round the bubble grill.




What are these mysterious things?


Big-ass bubble!


I see it Mom! I'm gonna catch it!


And here is where Mom misses the big moment!


You blew it, Mom!

Jacob is getting so close to crawling. He wants so desperately to keep up with his older brother, it cracks me up. He is obsessed with Drew, although he is saying something that sounds an awful lot like the beginnings of "Mama" (!). He has two teeth, and is so cute. Many people say that 5 months and 6 months are their favorite age, and I didn't feel that way with Drew, because he got 6 new teeth from 4 to 6 months and cried constantly (wouldn't you?). But Jacob is a little doll. I swear, if I had no common sense and we weren't broke as a joke, we would be trying for another one.

And Drew! We have had issues in the not-too-distant past, but he is really being a sweetie lately. He is also starting to listen to adult conversations too... this is good, and bad. I really have to watch all the things I say now. Also, he is.... wait for it again.... completely potty trained.
*Knocks on wood*
He even gets up at night to go potty and is accident free at night. Honestly, don't ask me how we did it, all the accolades go to Drew, if we weren't in the way, he probably would've been potty trained at 1 1/2 when he started to use the potty in the first place!

So in short, the fog is lifting off my winter depression stupor, and we are all doing well.

Time is FLYING

Then: Jacob (3 days old) and Drew.

Now: Jacob (4/12 months) and Drew.

Where is the time going?

Drewisms

"I want to talk to Amber about eggs."

****
"The truck asked me 'are you going to Nate's house?' and I said yes. I asked the truck 'are you going to Nate's house?' and he said no."

****
"Jacob isn't crying, he's talking to me. He's saying 'ooooooo'."

****
"I had a dream about Nana's house. I am going there."

****
"My star, I lost my star!" (this one is at 3am.)

****
"I'm a kitty cat. Meow, meow meow..." (about 35-100 more times.)

My Mom came over to drop Drew off after watching him for the day. I was so excited to see him, I pulled him into my lap to give him a big hug. He squirmed out and said, "Mommy, I can feel your whiskers!" I couldn't figure out what he was talking about until he pointed at my stubbly calves peeking out underneath my shorts. Thanks Drew!

One morning I was packing up my lunch and Drew asked what I was doing. "I'm getting my food ready for lunch today," I told him.

"Let me see," he asked.

I put the bag down so Drew could see into the bag, which held a diet coke and a south beach diet frozen pizza.

"Silly Mommy!" Drew exclaimed. "That's not food!"

"You're right Drew, you are so right." I responded.

Happy Birthday Drew!

Okay, I have wanted to do this for a while, a birthday blog, but I have been busy (working full time and having 2 kids 3 and under is time consuming)! I can't believe 3 years have past... years go by in what seems like minutes. I know I might complain about the terrible 3's, but I love Drew very much and am very proud of him. Happy Birthday Drew, I love you.
