I have not been good at keeping up with my blog here recently...sorry to those of you who actually still check this:)
I thought I'd actually write something for this post. Here are some updates on our family
Jake-
Oh boy, gotta love him!
My days are filled with lots of laughter and a few tears from this little boy! He will be 3 at the end of August and has been the ''typical'' 2 year old up to this point. He continues to love all things trains, but is expanding his passions to motorcycles, and well...anything with wheels. He has really enjoyed his bug catcher container from the dollar store....we catch lots of things everyday and then release them to go home to their mommies at night. He is particularly fond of toads and worms and ladybugs. He still LOVES his books and will now ''read'' them on his own during room time. I have been having ''devotionals'' with him most mornings after Seth goes down with his picture Bible book and he really,really loves it! He asks to read the God book quite often. He always wants to read the story of the crucifixion because he wants to see Jesus ''boo-boo's'' and he points out when he sees Mary weeping over Jesus on the cross that ''his mommy is crying''...I am really trying to seize these moments with him...in my botched up effort, to speak about God's love for us/him. We go through creation quite often too:) Such teachable moments!
We continue to train him to stay in his bed for naps. Some days are great and some days....not so much:) It has helped to push his naps back a little to 2ish. He is starting to take an interest in the potty but well....I'm not so interested:) We will really gear up for that this summer. He is really growing into a daddy's boy more and more....whatever daddy is doing, he has to be there too. I'm really happy with this new love for daddy...i was beginning to feel''over loved'' with having now 2 mommas boys;)
Jake does really great with Seth these days...actually he always has done wonderful, but lately he will play with Seth, not just beside him. He asks ''where Set?'' when I put him down for a nap. I think he really doesn't mind having him around!
I have really been enjoying him more since I have limited my phone calls and computer use while they are up. It has provided me with more discipline opportunities but even more so, the sweet moments of playing horsey, cuddling, and just plain having more ''conversations'' with him about really random stuff. There are so many things I want to start doing with him come fall that I'm super excited about...mainly a bit more responsibility with chores and a chore chart/reward system and start some sort of pre-school curriculum that I can do during ''learning time'' with him. Nothing too big or time consuming seeing how he only will be 3. If any of you have seen anything you liked for the younger kids please let me know. i am not good at just making up things to do when it comes to activities/learning....I really need some sort of structure and ideas:)
Jake fav's are-Trains, matchbox cars, bugs, being flown in the air by daddy, wrestling every night with daddy, books, Mcdonalds ''chicken nuts and fies'', his cousin Maleena, killing flies, Dora, NONI-the neighbor lady who gives him juice boxes(cause i don't) and candy EVERY DAY, being outside, cows, coloring, stickers, shutting the doors on Seth, hide and seek is HUGE in this house, and finally-the moment he hears the garage go up at 5:15 when daddy gets home!....and frankly-its ALL of our favorite times!
Well, There is always more to share about kids...but some of it only interests me...so I won't bore you with more things I love about Jake, just thought I'd share an update:)
Seth- Many of you have asked about his head issues. We still have seen no signs of anything wrong. We do see a neurologist in June to talk over what could possibly happen. I will update that after the appt.
My Seth is such a gigantic blessing to us. He seems to always be smiling and cheerful. He will be playing on the floor and starts squealing and smiling so hard when he sees me in another room...even I left the room just 1 minute before...as though I had been gone all day:) Really cute! He will go to anyone but if I am anywhere in he room...it's over, he only has eyes for his momma! He is taking a few crawls here lately so anytime now will be all over the house. He can go from a crawl to sitting position very fast, he's been doing that a while now, he is trying to pull himself up on things to stand, He refuses to eat baby food and now will only eat table food....he can eat half a can of green beans at one sitting... in addition to many other items!!! He just really wants to feed himself now...I'm fine with that:) He loves the typical food, and I'm not kidding when i say he will/can eat anything. He really doesn't seem to want to nurse much longer. He is acting very disinterested. I probably will wean him soon and give him bottle for a couple months till I go to milk. I have enjoyed nursing him for 9 months but i think we both are kinda ready to be through. I am looking forward to the rest of my breastfeeding weight to come off( i lost SO MUCH weight when I weaned Jake) and I really would like a weekend getaway without having to pump:) ----sorry if this is TMI--- i know some of you ask about stuff like this;)
I know he is still small but I am sure with his increase in all things food, he will pack em on soon:)
Seth fav's are wagon rides, mommy, bath time, graham crackers, hanging upside down , being flown in the air by daddy(verrererey carefully of course)licking the floor, pulling hair, and high on the top of the list is his love for Godiva! wow...this boy loves his big brown dog:)
These boys keep me busy and on my knees a lot asking for help from the Lord in this season, but It is so worth it! They bring me such JOY everyday! I have given up some outings during the week to be able to more regulate my time training Jake and being more purposeful at home...so I can honestly feel lonely at times:) We do get out, just not quite as much. If anyone would like to pay us a visit during the day, I would love more company!!!
Maybe later I will do an update on James and I. this update took way longer than I thought, and ....we are not too exciting anyway:)

Meghann, What a great update! Our little chat session in church wasn't nearly long enough, so I'm glad you did this...
What awesome times with Jake... I wish I'd gotten to see him as well. In all our books Elyana seems to love frogs and ladybugs in pictures, so I really hope she does in real life too... The daddys boy thing is adorable!!!
And Seth, well what a little cutie he was!
I am so glad to know that baby weight comes off with nursing. I am so positive that nursing has really made me store more fat, and it's been beyond frustrating for me to work my butt off every day with my workouts and see no progress, or even weight gain (even with calorie cutting). Oh well. Nursing the baby is worth it.
Let us know how you and your Sweetie are.
Love the update even if I havn't met the cuties yet. We seriously should meet up soon.
Jake is the same age as my Kailani. (little blue)
For ideas, I love to make file folder games and they seem to really keep the girls attention an you can customize them in so many ways. I will have to bring some to show you sometime when we get together.
You are amazing to nurse so long. I nursed my oldest till she was 6 months and then she weaned herself from me. :( Then my 2nd I had gall bladder surgery and lost my supply after only 6 weeks. And with my 3rd she was so allergic to so many things we had to get the stinky expensive formula. ugh. :(
So maybe with my next baby I can nurse longer.
They seem like such fun boys and you are doing such a great job teaching them through example, faith and time in devotionals.
We need more mothers like you in the world.
I love how one of Seth's favorite hobbies is licking the floor! Too funny!

That's actually all there's to it. The Frisky and xoJane run these "eww what people do to annoy me" kind of articles in heavy rotation
and it really is far more annoying than whatever annoying behavior they're speaking about. What I do not get is why sit there and allow yourself to be annoyed by a predicament that is easily fixable.

American guys would not visit other countries for love/sex
to get a selection of factors. The initial is if most females inside the U.
S. were not so excess fat. Confident you can find men that can't afford to journey or are uninelligent, so they settle for a fat lady and live a dull lifestyle even if they say their wife or girlfriend is "hot" yet the dimension of the Ford Tundra. The second is barely a minority of ladies are super sizzling in the U.S. A lower share of scorching females in the usa, tends to make them opt for both some muscle buff homos or some billionare. Amongst the youthful sizzling girls, they're sexually turned off by intelligence of any
kind or sophistication.
So what must a guy of respectable appears using a high education do ?
Go settle for some fatty ? Why should he,
when he has a higher opportunity in having the daily life he desires in other areas on this world, Look at the the
many years he missed out in college where scorching females don't have any sexual interest in intelligence and use MTV as their common of the man. Logically talking, it really is far better for an educated man of good looks to go to places where the majority of girls are
super hot and unique including Japanese Europe/Russia,parts of Latin The us, and a few parts of Asia.
So why do girls in the usa, and their closeted homosexual male supporters lash out at their fellow American men for enjoying daily life or searching for out a real lifestyle ? I have no problem if girls chose a lifestyle they want, why cannot males ?

I'm not italian, and that i truly acquired absolutely nothing towards them, but I listen to ladies stating that italian guys are soooo scorching, and gorgeous, with design appears, but these identical females are with fellas that are not italian. And if they are italian, they certainly don't look
like models. I imply I can understand the frustration of ladies once they see
men ogling at models/skinny ladies, and it makes me query whether my bodily look is acceptable or
not. So my query is are males of other ethnicities less

Allow me bring up Superboy-Prime. He is an example of what Superman can do when he does not maintain back again, have any moral compass, and is strictly driven by rage
and revenge. Prime, has killed a number of (potentially 47)
Green Lanterns, and countless other DC Tremendous Heroes and Villians.
The Complete DC Universe knows that Prime will and has the power to destroy planets and each and every person that he comes across, bar none.
So if that's what small Superboy-Prime can do, imagine what Superman can do, if he decides to allow loose.
Know in World War Hulk, we see Hulk, not as a idiot who can't feel or reason, and just
smashes, but a single that has average intelligence.
Strength and other powers on par with Superman( to the Marvel universe).
Hulk, proves himself as a wise strategist during the series, and
even as a prudent leader. Hulk destroys creatures that no 1 else
could destroy on that world, proving that he's in the class of powers of Superman.
trying to decide who would win Hulk or Superman is like trying to decide Chicago or New York pizza. But in this example Superman could win "IF" he takes Superboy Primes's attitude and
just rips the Hulk in half prior to things get out of hand.
the Hulk will win if Superman goes his usual boyscout
route and takes his time. WW Hulk shows that Hulk will destroy his enemy, even though Superman has nevertheless to demonstrate he's willing to tap into his potential serial killer side and tear folks a new one particular.
So perhaps the query should be who would win Superboy-Prime or Hulk?
SuperBoy_Prime of course. Constantly bet around the deranged serial killer, they seem to often win. And he seems to become the only person in either Dc or Marvel to in fact have True INVULNERBILITY, and he actually uses it.

The issue with our schooling program in this nation is the
fact that our nation values sports, athleticism, and celebrities more than schooling.
. . If we truly allow, say, understanding math, physics, and chemistry
be optional in higher college (and school), our society could be fall behind our
countries so swiftly we'd be screwed.? How helpful are a? bunch of English majors and dancers for society?. . This speech is just flowery poetry to me.

Luke, if it had been that simple Superman would have completed
that to Doomsday, right? If men and women are saying that the Hulk and Doomsday are nearly equal in power,
I think not, The Hulk is stronger, I digress, Superman could have exerted these traits in his fight with Doomsday, but he didn't. So why would he all of a sudden do that when he fights the Hulk. Past battles depict a good deal about how a person fights someone who's genuinely powerful.
Also get yet another appear with the Hulks powers again, he can stand
heat as intense as the main from the solar.
In a fight within the past the Hulk backhanded Supes
and knocked him to Jupiter, so I assume it all depends on who's writing the story. Switching topics for any sec: in the the crossover mag there was a race between Quicksilver and the Flash and the first race Flash destroyed him; Quicksilver learned about the speed force in DC's Universe; remember there is certainly no speed force in Marvel's universe. As soon as, QS tapped into the "speed force" he was just as quick and a little bit quicker than the Flash. The Flash came to Marvel's universe and
it was no contest QS dusted him. We all know that for some reason DC makes it's hero's a
lot stronger simply because of their universe but
Marvel's hero's adapted and came on level or rose above.
Your go!
