Escapee

Are you kidding me...... I have a crib jumper on my hands! Matthew, of course it is him, has made it out of the crib. We knew it was a matter of weeks but did not think it would be this soon. Yesterday for nap he hopped out of his crib and into Nicks, then proceeded to hop out and collect all the toys and stuffed animals in the room and fill Nicks crib with them, to the TOP. I have to admit it was comical but where do we go from here? We are not ready for them to have total freedom never mind giving up naps. Today is the same story. No sooner did I close the door Matt was out of his crib and into Nicks. I thought I would try something new, so I went back in and quietly tucked them both into Nicks crib hoping that they may just want to snuggle up. No such luck! As I type this total mayhem is taking place upstairs. Off to see what I find today, wish me luck as I need it right now.

Already October!

Things have been good. The boys are just talking and talking and talking and talking, you get the picture. We have recently been for their 2 year check up, a little late of course, and they are right on track. Nicholas is still the taller and thinner one 29 1/2 lbs and 39 inches, while Matthew is still just a couple inches behind but has a couple of pounds on him 31 lbs and 37 1/2 inches. We have recently moved on from the highchairs as it was getting near impossible to stuff them in there anymore because they are so strong so its onto booster seats. This has brought on it's own challenges because now they will not stay seated for more than 10 seconds. Food has become low on the priority list because they are just so interested in everything.

Nicholas is learning his colors and letters and LOVES music. He dances and sings whenever the mood catches him, music or not. Matthew is quite the little helper, wants to feed the dog, the cat, and help me cook. He is also the aerialist of the two. There was one day recently when he managed to get out of his "special suit" for nap time, jumped his crib over to his brothers and launched his naked self into Nicholas' bed while Nick was sleeping. He was so very proud of himself when I went up there to see what was going on.

Sometimes you can't help but laugh at some of the crazy things they do.
