I've Still Got Kids

It's been a while since I've done a post about the kids. Tanner is doing fine, he's completely over that spitting up issue that we had such a problem with in the spring. He just started walking this week which isn't really going to change things around the house. He's been getting into trouble since he started crawling. His favorite things to play with are curtains, computer wires, things in cabinets and the biggest No-No of all: Daddy's remote controls!

Tanner is so much easier to put to bed at night than Elias was. Tanner gets a bottle every night at 8:30, on nights when Jen's at work and I've got the kids we lay in our bed while Tanner has his bottle and Elias and I watch a little bit of DEAL OR NO DEAL on TiVo. Then when Tanner is done his baa-baa I just lay him in his crib and he goes right to sleep. It used to take us at least an hour to get Elias to bed every night when he was an infant!

Elias started preschool in September, and he loves it! We just sent him there to be a little more active and socialize with other kids but he's also learned so much stuff. He knows his days of the week, and the seasons and months of the year. He can tell you what letter a word stars with by sounding it out, and most impressive of all he knows the Pledge of Allegiance?!

Elias is also very excited about Christmas. It's neat to get to see the holidays through his eyes. We're going to see Santa and Rudolph and Frosty arrive at the mall via fire truck this weekend!

Joey has had his hand in a cast for the past three weeks. He jokingly punched a wall a few weeks before the football season was over. As a result, he missed out on the last few games of the season. He's also been taking Hap Ki Do lessons (martial arts) which he's doing really well with. The other night we went to his belt test where he moved up a belt level. He broke a board with his elbow, it was pretty impressive.
