We are still alive

It has been far too long since I have updated. Things continue to stay busy here. We bought my in-laws house in March. It is so wonderful to be out of a small apartment. The boys love all of the room. Marcus is enjoying being able to play in the yard. We were also finally able to take my dog from my parents house. She is now enjoying being indoors and having the boys to play with. Here is a quick run down of what is going on in everyone's life.

Marcus is a terrible two-a-saurus. He does quite a bit of fussing now, and we are all trying to deal with it the best we can. He is really into dinosaurs. For Easter, he got a kids picnic table with dinosaurs painted on it. Marcus is talking a lot more. He is even remembering a lot more now. Yesterday, he was able to tell me all about eating cake with Aunt CiCi on Easter. It was really cute, and I am proud of him.

Christopher is growing up way to fast. He is almost as tall as Marcus, and he is a mover. He isn't crawling, but he does a scoot/flip around thing that moves him all over the floor. He as also started standing up in his pack'n'play. Today he walked around it holding onto the edges. I have a feeling he is going to be a walker soon. Christopher has been doing well in his helmet. It has been about two and a half months, and there has been a lot of growth in the right areas. He still needs a little more growth on his leftside, and his ears need to shift a little more. I am hoping he'll be out of the helmet by the end of May.

Bryan is working very hard. He is doing a lot of programming stuff at work. The good part is that he is able to work from home, so we get to see him more. We are hoping this will lead to a job offer, but for now we are just waiting.

I am keeping very busy. I am staying home with the boys during the day and working from home at night. I started competitive running two months ago. I finished my first 4 mile race in one hour and five minutes. I have my second race, a 5K, tomorrow. I am still trying to get the house unpacked and set up. I had to take a month off while I tried working outside of the home. We all agreed everything runs better when I am at home. The boys are enjoying too because I am cooking and baking a lot more.

That is all that is going on around here. I will try to update weekly.
