Pictureless Update!

Yep, another pictureless update! Soon though, soon there will be pics!

Anyhow, the kids seems to be feeling better so I thought I would write about that! We have had a month of pure torture and VERY little sleep! I can't even believe how little sleep we have had! Audrey was the last one (besides me) hanging on to her cold and she seems to be ALMOST back to normal. She has been coughing very little, eating a lot and playing like she used to. She cracks us up! And she has been thrilled to be back staring at Uncle Bryson who calls her "glowworm!" Raleigh loves that name for her! Her sleeping still leaves something to be desired, but I think when she is at home in her bed we can worry about getting her back on track.

Raleigh is such a funny little guy and I have been having a blast just sitting and having conversations with him. Here is a sample conversation:
Me: "What does your nose do?"
Raleigh: Blank Stare
Me: "It smells. What do your eyes do?"
Raleigh: "Their go blink blink blink." He says "their" instead of "they."
Me: "They see. What do your ears do?"
Raleigh: "Their give me energies."
Me: "HAHAHAHA."
I have no idea where that idea came from but it was funny!

Then, Raleigh was taking a shower with me and he said, "Mom, I feel funny." And then...he pooped right in the shower! He hasn't done that for a LONG time! I think I made him feel bad about doing it though, because tonight I heard him telling his Uncle Trent and Uncle Jared, "I got ALL my poop in the potty. None in the shower, none in my underwear, just all in the potty." His uncles looked at him a little strange and just said, "Good." It was funny.

And this morning out of the blue he asked, "Mom, why does Audrey have hair on her head?" Okay, you think this is an easy answer but early in the morning I was caught totally offguard. My heart started pounding and I said, "Well, I don't know! I guess it's to protect our head." And then finally the real answer kicked in..."And to keep our heads warm." Phew, I saved myself on that one!

And when I help him with something, like putting on a shoe or holding something, he will say, "Mom, you are such a good helper!"

Audrey's favorite thing to say is still "Hiiiiiii" and she waves to everyone and everything, especially animals. When we saw our cats and dog again she would not stop waving to them. It was really cute. And she always has a smile ready and when she wants to be cute and shy, she will smile and then tuck her head into my shoulder. It is so cute! She is starting to walk around the couch and tables while holding on. Oh, and I don't ever want to forget this so I am going to write it right now! When I am putting her to sleep, she always plays with my hair! Sometimes it hurts, but most of the time she just gently plays with it! I love it! She also does some funny rasberry type sounds with her mouth which are cute! I will try to get it on video!

And lastly, I was laying on Raleigh's bed after we drove down to San Marcos yesterday and I was POOPED! But the kids weren't, so I was letting Raleigh zerbert my stomach. Audrey saw us laughing and crawled over as fast as she could. She wanted to do it to, so I let her, but instead of a zerbert, she LICKED my stomach! Raleigh and I were laughing so hard! At least she tried!

Okay, I have to fold laundry and get to bed so I will leave my memories for now! Until next time!!!!
