Family updates

Time for some updates with the familia! I'll start with Miss Alexis. Still no teeth, I can't believe it! I thought for sure she'd have at least two teeth by now, but nope! She does look so cute when she smiles her little granny smile. She has been army crawling for about a month now and she is pulling up on all fours rocking back and forth so I think she'll be full on crawling in a couple of weeks. I do have to say she sure does get around via army crawl! She finally is going from a laying down position to a sitting position on her own so I'm happy about that. Thanks to her brother she also now growls like a dinosaur, if you can imagine that. I can't believe that in 3 1/2 months we'll be celebrating her first birthday!

Now on to my Jerome! Boy of boy he sure has been putting us through the ringer! He has been a temper tantrum throwing toddler and it is just driving me crazy! What happened to my sweet little boy? He growls at Lexi and scares the crap out of her and then laughs because he thinks it's funny. He throws toys at anything that moves, spits (where we learned that IDK) and screams at the top of his lungs. I really thought we were going to pass the terrible two's but I *thought* wrong! From everyone I have talked to they have all warned me that the terrible two's is nothing compared to the three's. Great so I guess it's only going to get worse before it gets better. However, the other night I was looking into Jerome's mouth and I noticed that his two year molars have finally decided to poke thru so I'm hoping that's way he's been such a terror lately!
As for the hubby and I, we are doing as good as can be, we are both happy and healthy. We did get a new addition to the family, Elvis, our bulldog! He is such wonderful dog andI couldn't be more happy with him. I'm very fortunate that my work is letting me bring him every day in order to housebreak him. He's doing quite good actually and I think in about two weeks he should be fully housebroken! Well I can't think of anything else so God bless until next time!

Here's Elvis

Elvis is just tooo flippin cute!! Congrats! I told you I'm counting down the days until Isaac turns 3 although lately he has been having some good days so there is hope. My other boys were hard at 4 so I'm hoping we've made it past the hard stage and it will be smooth sailing. For now you will be in my prayers :) Glad your all well love you all tons
