Updates

Josh:

• Josh LOVES school.
• Josh has a girlfriend at school. Her name is Jordan. And how did he decide that she is his girlfriend? She gives him lots of hugs. But, he always tells us the last part with a bit of exasperation. We'll have to see how this goes. He is definitely his daddy's son, because I didn't have any romantic relationships in kindergarten. In any case, Ella has a competitor!
• Josh eats peas. No, really. That puts the grand total number of vegetables that he will knowingly eat at two. Which might not sound like a lot, but is a 200% increase over this time last year.

Michael

• Michael helps me understand why parents would send their kids to boarding school. Just kidding. Sorta. Three was a bad year with Josh, too.
• A ball of poo the size of a softball rolled out of Michael's underwear last week. Just in case you were wondering how potty training was going.
• Michael is turning into quite the big helper while Josh is at school. Unfortunately for him, he still has several months to go before Ben will be a fun playmate.

Ben

• When Ben sleeps well, he sleeps GREAT. But, when Ben sleeps poorly, he sleeps HORRIBLY.
• Ben in a equal opportunity finger sucker. He will suck on any of his fingers...and on any of yours if given the chance.
• If Ben had been my first child, I would have felt betrayed by the other kids crazy babyhoods. But since he is my last, I feel blessed to have a decently calm child.
