It is December and we now have a 4yr old (Drake), a 2yr old (Mailey), and my 13mth old..Colton is past 1!! I haven't posted since he was 4mths old and that tells you how time goes by SO fast!!
Drake is doing really well being a big brother and loves everything about airplanes and computers.. I am glad my job (flight attendant) lends to his airplane fix! The computer/iphone/cellphone fixation drives us insane sometimes but what can you do? It entertains them for a few minutes and allows for some development in some area in his brain... right?! I am sure of it?!
Mailey is my mini-me.. every where I go..she goes. Let me just say that this thrills me and sometimes does not help me. I love that she loves her baby brother and wants to be with me when we change his clothes, diapers, etc. But sometimes mommy needs to stand next to the stove and doesn't need help.. see where this is going?! I do love my little princess.. she loves putting her doll to bed, and everything else for that matter.. the kitchen spoons, the remote, the phones. When I say she puts the items to bed she lays a blanket over them (or a kitchen towel) and then walks away, leaving mommy and daddy to search for many items (remote, cell phones, etc)!
Colton is my little cowboy.. he bucks and kicks and screams while he does it!! So truly named is that boy that is a little scary!! He is actively moving around and trying so hard to walk that he is almost there. We are in no hurry with him walking, as mentioned above, I am sure things would be moving with him at a very lightning speed and I am ok with waiting : ) He loves his thumb for going to bed, I was hoping to have a paci kind of boy.. but both my boys are thumb suckers.. thats ok, I am sure we will be visiting an orthodontist in our lifetime for something : ) He squeals when he is happy and is pointing in all directions while saying a number of grunts, words, whatever you would like to call them. He says DahDah when we can work it from him and MuhMuh when we want to hear Mommy.. lol!!
My sweet hubby is currently an accountant for a nationwide payroll firm for their Atlanta office.. he is happy to be putting into practice what he has been studying for the last two years! We are thankful that he is done with school and now we are headed to CMA/CPA exams and getting those out of the way.. but no pressure.. just enjoying things one day at a time!
I am still at Delta and flying usually a few days a month.. I teach training more often than not because it allows me to be home on a regular basis. I actually enjoy teaching, too, but I never knew I would have so much fun with a full time job, even after 16 years?! I love my job and what it allows me to do, both personally and professionally!
We hope you and your family have a most wonderful and Merry Christmas and Blessed New Year!!
The Meenach Family
