Peace and Quiet....for now..

Why don't I just blog... while the satellite is out (storm just quickly passed though); hubby is snoring in his chair-- well breathing deeply... and the boys are both still napping-- Jake woke up for a bit when a guy down the road felt he needed to rev his engine a few dozen times... really we get it...

Well what have we been up to the last month... We have been feverishly getting the house ready for sale- well for people to come and look at it now-- We had a showing scheduled for yesterday but apparently forgot to check the storm door of the front door to be sure it wasn't locked so the agent could get at the lock box. Yup the door was locked- while we were cleaning in the am- I had locked it because Jackson can now "let himself out". So we lock it and clearly I didn't undo it when I shut the door before we ran out of the house. It was strange that when I came home I walked in and had a weird feeling/thought that no one came- whether they didn't show up or-- the door was locked and they couldn't get in.. needless to say apparently they found a different house :( Oh well on to the next... should be having some open houses coming up so fingers crossed for more lookers!!

Baby Rylee joined the family- she is adjusting well to the Brinkman house-- so far ;) She is TINY! Came out over 6#'s...not like my 8#ers! it is amazing what a difference 2#'s is!!

Updates on the boys---
Jackson got his first "real" haircut last weekend- it is still on the longer side but cut :) He did a great job!
He is a talking maniac... and a PARROT! he is starting to repeat words and phrases that he really shouldn't be! We really need to watch it!-- he has had a run of -shut- up (which comes out- shhuu eup) and darn/damn it...
He is becoming such a lil man it is crazy! he can be quite helpful.. when he wants to be!

Jacob-- he is a cruising machine-- he know has the one legged crawl- with the leg up for that extra giddy up-- he is standing for a bit and walking along anything and everything. he is also daring and letting go and lunging for the next object- won't be long now!!!
He just turned 10 months old yesterday!

They are finally starting to play with each other-- it is quite cute :)
