Macie now has four teeth! Therefore she likes to chew on everything. Usually my shoulders are covered in drool and I make sure to always have some sort of teething toy in my purse. She definitely seems like she wants to get up and move, but just hasn't figured out how yet. She sees Warren getting into everything and can't wait to do the same! She still isn't sleeping well at night, but Warren never did either. She's a good baby during the day, so we'll be happy with that for now:)
Warren is doing great in preschool! His Aunt Amy takes him on Tuesdays and I think this may have helped with him feeling better about going. He brings home lots of art projects, which I proudly display on my refrigerator!
Some fun stories:
They both took two hours naps at the same time yesterday (a first), so I decided to tackle our disaster of a bonus room. At one point this was John's man cave where there was a ping pong table and where he would reload shot gun shells. Now it's a dumping ground for all our stuff. I first decided to vacuum. Apparently vacuuming where John use to load shells was not a smart idea. The vacuum ended up "shooting" at me. It sounded like a real gun! My ears were ringing and the room smelled like gun powder. So after I checked to make sure I wasn't shot, I ran downstairs to call John to say we probably needed a new vacuum!
A couple weeks ago I took Warren into Lowe's because I needed to return something. He likes to ride in the race car carts but since I was just returning something, I didn't let him. So needless to say, he was not happy while waiting in line. The cashier (who truly thought she was being helpful) gave him a small hammer to play with. I'm not sure why she thought giving a two year old a metal hammer was a great idea? She even told him he could keep it - great, thanks! So as we walked out into the parking lot, he tried to hit the bumpers of cars with it. Once in my car, I decided to take it away (I could see a new car window in my future otherwise). And of course he threw an absolute fit. So thank cashier at Lowes - maybe a nice pair of Elmo gardening gloves next time we come??
John watched both kids by himself for the first time this week. The girls went out to dinner Monday night, so the boys had to watch the kids! I came home to find both kids doing great. I also came home to a broken house phone and Macie's clothing, changing pad and towels on the floor covered in pooh. Right after I left, Macie decided to have a huge diaper while John was holding her and talking on the phone. He was so disgusted about his arm being covered in pooh, that he dropped the phone and broke it:) So I made a trip to WalMart this morning to buy a new phone. Can't wait till the next Girls Night Out:)
