December~

Well it's been over a month- but it feels like forever ago since I was last here...

Feels like I am in the never ending cycle or wake up, run out of the house, drive, work, drive, cook, sit, cuddle for a bit and then sleep again.. it's like wash rinse repeat :( but sooner or later it will stop and then I will wonder what the hell to do...
Jake turns 6 month's old tomorrow and in 3 days Jackson is 2!

It is amazing... I am reminded almost every day how fast they are growing when a new baby comes in to the clinic and I see how tiny they are.. but cool to watch them grow!

We are slowly getting ready for the holidays... we actually got a tree this year-- last year it really didn't feel like christmas here.. I think it will be our last real one for awhile-- it smells yummy-- but I can't tell ya how many times we forget to water the dang things-- and then to spend $50 on a freaking tree is a bit much-- so we will be partaking in the artifical christmas tree sales after the holidays :)
We again are going to stick to the list/plan like we did last year while we were in the savings challenge... planning on a mall day on Friday-- family/boy pictures, santa and shopping- oh and to round out the day we will end the day at the doctors for there check ups.

As far as milestones go-- Jake is starting to sit on his own for a bit, we are eating cereal and jar foods; 2 bottom teeth are just coming in; our first urgent care visit a few weeks ago for an ear infection-- just an all around happy content lil man!!
Jackson-- he is a talking machine!! we are still having some melt downs-- unsure if it is related to being almost 2, the fact that he has 3 molars coming in or he is sick too (didn't take him in when we did Jake)
he is getting so big! he is such a big help-- well he tries to be and wants to!


Happy holidays to all!!! Hope it is a great one!! Hugs to all!
