New Year, New Goals

My new goal for this year is to write an entry every Sunday for my kids. I want to make this into a book for them (not sure how to do that yet but don't have to worry about that for another year!) Last year flew by and my baby is now 2. Crap, that means I really have to start teaching her stuff! Potty Training, colors, abc's, all the things I am terrible at!
Lyla, you are the most precious thing ever. I seriously just want to sit and squeeze you all the time. You copy your brother in everything he says and does. Sometimes I feel like its a good thing...other times not so great! I love when I hear your baby voice say, shoot! oh man. I can't help but laugh to myself. You love getting yourself dressed which drives me crazy because you put together, shall we say...interesting, outfits. I wouldn't say you have hit the terrible two's because you don't really throw tantrums but you always let us know when you want something. I hope this year I can be so much better at keeping track of the weekly things you do, you are so cute and I wish I could capture every moment. It's so hard to punish you when you are so darn cute!

Cache, You have grown up so much in the past year. You started preschool, which you love and are doing amazing in. Already learning to read site words and learning how to write. It's pretty amazing how fast you learn. And I am so thankful for the people who know how to teach you these things because I am sure if it was just up to me you wouldn't be as far along. You are playing football and love it. I think you are enjoying it more than baseball and since you hopefully wont read this until you are older...I enjoy watching the football far more than baseball. I can't believe that you are going to Kindergarten this year. Part of me is excited and the other part is so sad. We have been together everyday, that's going to be a hard adjustment. I am excited to try and keep updated on whats going on in our lives.

I can't believe you're using words like "crap" in the book for your kids :) Is that one of the things you are teaching Lyla? HAHA. K, don't be disturbed by me suddenly showing up on your blog... I didn't know you had one!
