Well, all 3 kids are doing great! We haven't had a very adventurous summer, but it's been very busy! The kids are all growing up and just getting sweeter and sweeter (for the most part) every day! Here's the low-down:
Rachel thinks she can do EVERYthing since she's 5. She doesn't want or need anyone's help at all. She's still extremely crazy about Trent and wants to hug, kiss, hold and talk to him as much as possible. She's still very sweet, very loving, very helpful and an absolute doll...full of interesting, sometimes deep questions for me and Nick. She's also still annoyed with Bradley alot of times and likes to pick and choose when she wants him as a playmate. She's also SO excited about starting Kindergarten and the many things she'll get to do there. She can't wait to meet her teacher and see her friends. I know this is going to be a HUGE adjustment for both/all of us, so we won't get into that in this post. We're just trying to make sure we are 100% positive when we talk about her new school and everything that goes along with it. We just want our precious little angel to have a WONDERFUL experience!!
Bradley thinks EVERYthing that his big sister does is awesome. He copies her every word and action. (Part of the annoyance factor that bothers Rachel, I think.) He has started saying, "hi cutie" when he sees Trent...just like his sister. His latest thing is to ask, "how come?" constantly and with a shrug of his shoulders every time. He'll ask "how come" and we'll give a perfectly understandable answer and Bradley will ask it again and again and again. Rachel told him the other day that she was tired of him asking her that. It's really cute when he starts, but it's hard to satisfy him enough so that he'll stop saying it, so I usually have to start ignoring his "how come's?" He's also doing much better on the potty. He still has at least 2 pee-pee accidents per day, but has improved quite a bit. He'll go pee pee and poo poo on the potty and he LOVES his underwear with all the exciting characters on it. So, we're getting there. He's absolutely a lovable, sweet, sensitive, precious child, who's funny and still adjusting to his role of big brother. AND, I cannot believe that he's almost 3!!!!!!!!! We can't wait to celebrate his big day!!
Trent is 3 and a half months and is now rolling over from his back to his stomach! He doesn't do it all the time, but he can do it! He's an absolutely un-fussy, un-demanding, sweet, laid-back, patient little baby. He goes with the flow and has to wait around alot, but just give the sweetest little grins when his needs are finally met. He's a good napper, a good nurser and a good sport with his "in-your-face" siblings. He's a precious little angel and we're so thankful to have him and watch how he changes and grows every day!!
I sure do love my 3 little babies and am sooooooooooooo thankful that God blessed me with them!!
