miss patty cake and other happenings

Yesterday Andrew, Blake, Jennifer Massey and I went to see Miss Patty Cake at my church. I'm sure that's exactly how Jennifer loves spending her Saturdays. She didn't quite know what she was getting into when we made plans but I'm sure she enjoyed it...maybe not as much as Andrew did though!

I wasn't close enough to get a good picture. I was afraid I might need to sneak out if Blake got rowdy...but he was awesome!

Andrew wasn't too sure what to think at first but I think he enjoyed it.

In other news....

Blake is getting big and is SUCH a joy to be around. I seriously thought Andrew was a happy easy baby but Blake is SO much happier than Andrew was. He's always is smiling! He LOVES his big brother and just shrieks when Andrew comes up to him. It's so sweet and I know it won't be long and they'll be fighting like true brothers do. I take Blake for his 6 month check up tomorrow at the crack of dawn! He'll be almost 7 months but they couldn't get us in last month for a well visit. I know Blake has put on the weight but I'll be curious to see how long he is.

Andrew has been going on the potty!! :) He's actually been doing it for about two weeks now. He's done really well. I totally didn't push him this time. It's been all him and has been SO much easier. I just can't get him to go #2 on there so we've been using pull-ups instead of underwear. Once we get that down then we are done...hopefully that will be sooner than later. Pull-ups are expensive!

I'm so excited about Christmas this year!! Andrew is going to LOVE it. He's already enjoying seeing the lights and Christmas tree. I worried he would want to open the presents under the tree but he hasn't bothered them yet...well, they aren't under the tree as we don't have our tree up but they are sitting where the tree goes and he hasn't touched them.

I've started training for my job. I'm really excited about it. I was thinking I would be working about 20 hours a month but I don't think it will even be that much. We'll see. I'm wondering if I'll even start working before Christmas.

We'll my shows are on so I better end this long somewhat boring post.
