life with school/kids

So now that school is in full swing I am really finding personal time hard to come by. Most days I get everything done that I need to, but not always. Mike has been so great at picking up the slack, and this week there was a lot! I feel at times like I am missing things, but I am not (most days). On Wednesday while I was finishing up an assignment I put Topher downstairs to watch a movie and he wanted me to watch with him and I told him that I couldn't right then, so he has a crocheted Winnie the Pooh that he plopped down next to him. He said that "Pooh wants to watch a movie too." He is growing up so fast and his vocabulary is improving so rapidly! He hardly ever leaves words out of sentences anymore. Matthew is starting to thin out except for his thighs, still not walking unless we help him, but he is enjoying that more and more. He is starting to "talk" a little now. He can say "Hi", "Bye" "Bub-ba (Topher)," "Mama," "Dadda," and "Amen." He is also signing now, "more," and "all done," and "hungry." With as much as he wants to talk, he may end up being a late walker, but we will see.
