I realized it's been a week since I've posted anything...I'm becoming like Liz! We've been busy cleaning house & preparing for our guests from Bethel. They arrived last night, and we have 2 guys staying with us. Fun!
In preparation for the guys, I blew up the air mattresses last week to be sure they didn't deflate in an unreasonable amount of time. Do you know how hard it is to inflate air mattresses with a toddler jumping on them? I do! Elias loves the air mattresses, and after they were inflated, I had to shut the door to the bedroom just so he wouldn't jump on them all the time. Even when Ben & Josh got here last night, Elias made a bee-line to their room just to jump on the beds!
In other news, Jacob is becoming much more vocal. Even now he's sitting in his saucer, cooing & gooing away. I wish you could hear him - it's hilarious! He is all smiles for anyone who will talk to him - Mommy, Daddy, Elias, the clerk at the grocery store, the random people at Walmart. I guess it's good we raise such friendly children!
Elias is drawing ever closer to the age of 2! His friend Ben turned 2 over the weekend - it doesn't seem that long ago that Laura & I were both preggers! Now we have Jacob, and they are preggers with 2.2! It is becoming more evident in his actions that 2 is going to loads of fun. Already he is whining & crying if he doesn't get his way. Monday night Faith came over, and Elias got upset about something because Zach & I were both telling him no. He started crying, saying 'Aunt Baith! Aunt Baith!' thinking she would help him. She told him no, too, and he turns around and cries 'I want Paw-Paw!' Needless to say, we all busted out laughing at him!
I've got new pictures posted on my flickr page - www.flickr.com/photos/kristieab. I want to take a few more pictures of Jacob this week, but with all the business I don't know if we'll get to it!
