Well, I'm back for those who follow....crickets. Yes. Anyway, I really want to keep a journal of some type to document how our life is going and our feelings and all that and this seems to be the only way. I see the last time I was on here was when I went back to maternity leave so I'll catch up quickly.
Nolan is now 15 months old and was the perfect baby for the first year..haha! I swear there is colic for older babies because he has it. I think a little bit can be attributed to the fact that he got almost all of his teeth over Christmas break and that we probably have a little bit of a communication issue going on. He is one stubborn and hard headed child...I know, I don't know who he could have gotten that from. Anyway, we are plugging along with him and trying to teach him how to talk really fast.
He did have his first bang up job the other day. I have always said that the fact that this kid does not listen when I say "no" that he is going to get himself in trouble. Well, I was right in the bad way... We were outside and I was doing yard work and the boys were playing in the back of JR's truck. Jack had gotten out and Nolan stayed in and was just exploring the cab. All the sudden I look up and he is climbing on the tire cover and as I'm yelling "no" and "stop" he, of course, doesn't listen and continues to head dive over the side. He landed on his head on the concrete driveway and I about flipped out! Luckily, I am pretty calm in those kind of situations and I got him and put ice packs in the appropriate places and gave him ice water because he had bitten his tongue as well, twice. I watched for symptoms of a head injury and he was sleepy but only took a short nap. The next day he woke up with a bounce in his step like nothing happened.
Jack is doing fantastic. He turned 6 on March 5th and I still can't get it in my head that he is a 6 year old! We just finished up his first season of basketball and are going to begin baseball next week! JR and I both like baseball the best and can't wait to see how he does with coach pitched baseball. He is picking up on JR and I's sarcastic humor and has become quite the little smarty pants. We are teaching him when it is appropriate and not to be a smart mouth.
That is enough catch-up for now. I will post pics and such later!
