Oh my goodness... Since I last posted, ages and ages ago, so much has happended in our lives!!! First off, we are just over 2 weeks away from adding Baby Zach to our family (my due date is August 1st and hopefully Baby Zach won't arrive 8 days late like his big brother!). Also, we decided that since adding a child to our family wasn't enough stress we would build a new house and put our old one on the market. Well, our house sold in under 3 weeks and we have moved into a temporary apartment while our new home is under construction. It has been a hectic and crazy time of adjustment, but Mommy, Daddy and especially Nate are all doing well! Nate has been such a trooper through it all... He was a little stressed as he watched his most prized possessions being moved from his "old house" to his "little house," but once he saw his train table and his Little Einsteins poster in his room he was set! Hopefully he will adjust this well to Baby Zach's arrival, but Jamie and I aren't holding our breath... as he does enjoy being the the center of his Mommy's and Daddy's attention!
He is such a cute kid and once again I must say that he is quite brilliant (just ask his Nana and Pops)! He is still up to some of his old tricks and has added a few new ones: completely OBSESSED with the Little Einsteins, he can even tell you the name of the episode he wants to watch; he is even more OBSESSED with Little Einstein stickers and can go through a page of stickers in 10 seconds flat; he loves to play with his train table and has added dinosaurs and Little Einstein figures to his train table as obstacles for Thomas and the other choo-choos to maneuver around; his night-nights, he absolutely loves his night-nights and now must go to sleep with both night-nights, his poppi (paci), Leo, Mr. Bear and Froggie and yes, Mommy must tell each and every one of them good night and sweet dreams; his favorite number is still 8 and he talks about seeing it at Target; he can count to 15 without mistake, but then starts to add random numbers like "eleventeen," he also recognizes all the letters of the alphabet; he thinks it's funny to change the first letter of a word to a different letter and it's pretty funny to hear him pronounce the new words except for when he changes the first letter of "mam" to a "d" and then says, "yes, dam" instead of "yes, mam"; he absolutely loves the pool this summer and loves the innertube his grandma sent him... unfortunately, Nate does not understand that he can't jump off the side of the pool all by himself without Daddy there to catch him...; he's potty trained (hooray!!!) and loves to talk about how all of the big boys stand up to pee-pee... some of the guys he names are Daddy, Pops, Ry-Ry, Jack-Jack, Mr. Mike, Ty, Mr. Tim, and Mr. Chip; he also started saying that his poo-poo looks like "little fishies" in the potty (Pops really gets a kick out of that one); he still says "uh-huh, eh-hay" instead of the word "yes"; he loves his Mommy's black ankle boots and wears them around the house; and finally he has become obsessed with all of Baby Zach's gadgets. That's all I can think of for now...
We have had so many good times as a family and with our family and friends over the past few months. I can't comment on them all or this would go down in history as the longest blog ever! Instead, I'm attaching some of our favorite pictures from the past few months. Hope you enjoy!
