Oh, Hey Blog...

My New Years Resolution was to start blogging every evening. Seeing as how it is Feb 9th and it has taken me almost three weeks to write this, I may have to aim for once a week. Seriously?!? My last post was 11 months ago? That can't be...what have I been doing that my little creative (can writing about ones own daily life be creative?) outlet has been so ignored! Oh, right, I've been chasing the crazy babies around the house, town, and back and forth from New Jersey. Let see if I can sum up the past year (seriously? a year? this is nuts...)

The crazy babies learned to sit up, crawl, crawl after Jack, crawl really fast after Jack, walk, walk really fast, and run after Jack. All by the time they were 10 months old. They run, jump, and climb on everything! They really are crazy babies.

Luke is the sweetest little boy. (I can't believe that he is a little boy already. This is going way too fast. Where was I?) Luke is the sweetest little boy. Every since he stopped being "Pukie Lukie" he only wants to entertain anyone who is willing to watch. (I wonder where he got that genetic gift...) His goal everyday is to make us laugh and smile as much as possible, as long as we are laughing and smiling at him. If it is his brother who is getting the laughs Luke will try and out due him by an means possible; jumping, throwing himself on the ground, licking the dog...you get the idea. He is the best at snuggling and loves playing with hair. Which is good cause Luke is rocking an awesome mullet these days.

Calvin, oh Calvin. Calvin loves to climb. More then he loves to climb, he loves to be caught climbing. (I see that little smirk when I grab you off of the tv stand. I'm onto you Cal.) He personality has really started to show the past few months. Calvin is very independent. He does not want to be cuddled to sleep, he is content being put in his crib with his favorite blanket and putting himself to sleep. He does not want Garrett or I to hold the spoon or cup for him, he can do it. Showing him how to build with Legos? Forget it, he already has a color coordinated tower in the works.

The dynamic between the two of them couldn't be better. Since Calvin is happy to play independently it allows me to give Luke laughs he craves. They have started to play, hug and high five each other. Each time we catch them interacting Garrett and I cry. We have become emotional messes.
