A bird? A plane? No!!! It's SUPER JACKSON!

Ike's Aunt Susan sent us a care package and in it was a SUPER cool Super Hero cape for Jackson. He has been wearing it all around the house saying "I am a SUPER HERO!!!!"


Now we will see if he can use some of his super powers to clean up the super mess in his room...

Two in the Bed and the Little One Said...

Roll Over! Roll Over!

EDIT: I don't know why my video loaded so poorly. You get the idea though.



Can't tell you how much I love this kid!

The Most Wonderful Thing!

I can't believe I actually forgot to post about this! This past summer Ike got the opportunity to fulfill one of his life long dreams!!! (Those don't get fulfilled every day you know.) He was able to go to a New England Patriots game at Gillette Stadium! I probably forgot to post about it because of all the other stuff I had going on but here are a bunch of pictures!
 Ike took his two younger brothers and his dad to the game with him.
 Jackson, Brady and I tagged along for a museum tour and a walk around the stadium.
 By the New England Patriots Logo on the grass.
 Jackson actually had a fever that day but we didn't want him to miss the museum. He is kind of obsessed with the Patriots and we knew he would love it.
 Trying on the uniforms in the museum. Jackson wore this one for about 10 minutes and when I tried to make him put it back so we could move on he freaked out. We are probably going to get him a little kid's one for Christmas.

Ike trying on a Super Bowl ring.

Overall, Ike had a complete blast but I still am reeling over the fact that I forgot to give him the camera to actually take to the game. So I have no pictures of the game itself. So sad. I still can't believe I forgot to give it to him.

Lately



Brady

Lately, Brady is all smiles and poopy diapers. Literally. He is the happiest kid in the world. Every time you look at him he is smiling but he also poops ALL THE TIME! Like, almost every diaper is poopy. When does potty training start again? He rolled over for the first time this week and ever since, as soon as you put him on the floor he immediately rolls over or onto his side.

Jackson
Lately, Jackson is a parrot. Everything we say he says so we have to make sure we are using nice words! I have also noticed he is parroting the TV. (He learned the phrase "Happy Birthday!" from Toy Story 3.) He talks a mile a minute and his new favorite thing is to "run fast". Whenever we go on walks he says, "Mom, I run fast!" then takes off. We are learning to not run into the road. Thank goodness Fullerton has no traffic.

Me
I started doing step aerobics once a day while the kids nap and have started Weight Watchers. I am sure there will be more posts on this subject. Also, just noticed that this picture of me is kind of creepy looking. This was the most recent picture I have taken of myself. Brady also looks slightly frightened which ups the creep-o-meter. Mostly I have been doing alterations  jobs and I even got paid to make a cake last week. Always trying to stay on top of laundry. How do two adults and two little kids make so much laundry???

IKE
Ike is the assistant High School volleyball coach so he has left me a single parent for the past few weeks. He has practice every day and usually 2 games a week and sometimes an extra Saturday game or tournament.  So far they are doing better than they have done in the past two years so that is good! We both agree that it will be really nice when the season is over just so we can see each other again.
