Here it is, October... Guess it's been a while. Things have kind of been crazy. Scott is still looking for a job, and the kids are loving it. Jacob loves having "mama" and "baba" (grandma and grandpa) around to play with everynight. They spoil him and Cloie rotten. He's going hate it when we move...there won't be half as many cookies or candies or treats for him to invade. He'll also have to go without his morning "prout" (Sprout. It's a TV channel of all kids shows.) You can tell what shows are on in the morning because he can sing the theme songs perfectly. Heaven forbid he remember his shapes or colors that I work on with him... sigh.
Jacob even got on TV the other day. Sprout has mini games online and one of them is what they call "Pic me." All that they do is transpose a kids face onto a cartoon "cutout" and has the kid be the star of the show. Jacob got to do a dance on national TV that way. He did it perfectly. I'm so proud of him.
Cloie is such a little cutie...other than she squeels....no, screams....no, that's not it....screeches at random times. It sounds like we're abusing her. It's also loud enough to make someone go deaf. She now tries to crawl. She hasn't figured it all out yet. She more or less gets up on all fours and lunges forward. I think it looks painful and she's knocked the wind out of herself a few times (which makes her screech) but she keeps doing it. All well. She'll figure it out sooner or later.
As for me, well.... I'm hating myself at the moment. I decided to make a quilt for Jacob's Christmas....before I knew it, I was making four for Christmas, one for my mother-in-law's birthday this spring and another one on the backburner for Cloie's second birthday. Yeah, I know she hasn't even had her first, but the pattern is for a twin bed. I've almost got all the four for Christmas done though.
Well, I think that's enough of an update for now.
