March: Madness

We may be less than 2 weeks into the month, but it is already madness. I am very busy being a single mom; Wayne is very busy with his new job; we're both very busy getting the last stuff settled with this house and getting ready for the move to the next. We're so anxious to be together we decided to move the week of the 16th, which is coming fast.

Right now Wayne only comes home every two weeks. The last time he was home, I think he forgot what it's like to have a two year old around and he left out his clippers. Brenner found them and....
do you see the hole in the middle of his hair?Brenner is actually quite proud of himself, if you point it out he will say, "Yes, buzzzzz."

Speaking of Brenner and his sayings, he has come up with some pretty regular phrases now that Hyrum is around. Here are the most common:
"I hold it, Mommy. I hold it?"

"Mommy eat Hyrum?" (meaning am I feeding Hyrum)


"My see baby Hyrum?"


It's pretty cute.

Last Wednesday I lost my wallet. Madness! My wallet that contained everything. Credit cards, ID, immunization records, social numbers, everything! I know, I know, you aren't supposed to put all that stuff in there...but it's just so much easier.

I had it on Wednesday afternoon when I was using my ID for some stuff at the computer. When I finished up I handed it to Aiden and asked him to put it back in the diaper bag. Thursday morning I went to get some money out and it was gone. Aiden says he put it in there, but it is no where. Thankfully I have my checkbook, so I am able to get money, but the rest is a mess!

But on to happier topics...my boys.

Parker is looking forward to the move and new adventure, but very sad to leave as well. He's doing excellent in school. His teacher just informed that in this past quarter Parker has jumped from an E reading level to an I. He's very into reading scientific books and then he likes to tell you how everything works.

Aiden is still bouncing off the walls with anticipation of the move. He also constantly asks if spring is here yet because that means his birthday. They recently got pet hermet crabs in their preschool and he thinks that means he's partial owner. We've decided when we move that he will switch rooms and be with Brenner, and he's looking forward to being the bigger brother in the room.

Brenner is still a sweet little menace. He's obsessed with Hyrum, which is both good and bad. He also has learned to take advantage of the time that mommy is busy feeding Hyrum. He runs downstairs and pulls a chair up to a counter and will get into any junk food he can find. He's generally a very happy-go-lucky kid which makes him really fun to be around.

Hyrum is a very good baby. He's already sleeping five hours at night and is very relaxed and laid back whenever he's awake. We love having him here. Just look at these cute pictures.

We may still have a ways to go to get through March, but we are all feeling the effects of the madness. Just look at Brenner
