No we aren't Canadians but we love us some! Thank you so much Oshawa Evans and Toronto Smiths for a great weekend. We had a really nice time, and Jessica was really sad to leave.
We went to china town and got these great jammies for Jessica. I will have to take some pictures of her in them. They are awesome. She loves going to preschool, it is so fun to see her grow up. One thing that drives me nuts is she never tells me about her day. She always says, “When we get home, after my nap, I don’t remember, umm later.” Sometimes I catch her doing things that her teacher would do. I have to say she does a dead on impression.
Jack is so happy to be in his own bed. I have been tempted to give him some Benadryl. He has been getting some molars and that translates to waking up a lot at night. Throwing food, crying, whining…… Man I love that kid but sometimes he tries to make it hard. Plus honestly he poops like no other. If I take the kids to the gym guarantee that they will come get me because he has pooped. It drives me nuts. My mom thinks it’s funny, “done in by poop!” IT’S NOT FUNNY. It really puts a damper on things because we have to do the whole separation thing again. Usually we just go home. He is not talking yet, and he gets really frustrated. He points a lot and grunts or screams. I thought about teaching a couple signs but I worry that the incentive to learn to express himself with words wouldn’t be as strong. Who knows??? Like I said I love this kid but man oh man. Chris is also out of town again and it is the end of the week so that makes things harder.
I just finished the book I was reading for book group. Any suggestions? I just want a great don’t want to put it down, lose myself in the book great read. That afterwards I miss it.

This week in pictures
Jessica put this little number together. So creative!
This is in the woods by Chris' brothers house. How awesome is this fort. I love this picture of Jessica. She was sitting on this big piece of modern art, and across from her was another with a man in it sketching. He took a break to watch us take a picture. Jessica was unsure of the audience.
Jessica enjoying a Toronto hot dog! It looks as big as her! On the way home from Toronto the sun was in Jack's eyes so I put one of his blankets in the window. Jack was like no I need to snuggle it! Even though he has a perfectly unattached blanket in his lap.

Those are some cute kids! And dont worry Jack will talk soon. He says somethings but it will pick up!
Hey Nancy!
Love all your photos of your cuties!
Have you read the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer yet? fun stuff!
Signs eased a ton of communication stress and frustration with all of our kids. There is a ton of research that shows it doesn't set back their normal speech development and that it is really good for kids--develops brain pathways just like a second language. If you are still worried, I would just pick 4 or 5 words that are most important and stop there.
Good luck!
