Boys will be Boys

Well, the guilt of not updating my blog in a long time has set in! It's time! Lately, I feel like I can get nothing done and barely have time to breathe! Having one child is a walk in the park, having two, two and under that are both mobile, is physically exhausting! We started with a walk in the park, to a full Iron Man Triathlon! (And no I have never run in a triathlon…and probably never will.) Shane has been crawling for a month now which was so unexpected! He went from crawling, pulling up, to now climbing the stairs in what seems like overnight! This kid has got some serious determination! He puts his mind to something and does it! Mommy was not ready but Shane apparently was! Now he gets hurt at least twice a day because he pulls up then kamikaze dives to the floor. He was so determined to stand and pull up that he has not mastered getting down and does not seem to care. He is also all about getting into big brother’s business. Anytime Chase is playing with anything, Shane will find his way right smack in the middle of it. This does not sit very well with Chase who is used to all the toys being his and only his. And apparently, Chase is willing to allow Shane to play with his toys on his terms. I can already tell there is going to be some fighting in my future but it's only normal I guess. Once Shane fights back, things will be getting real interesting! Both boys are pretty wild and Shane is even more active than Chase was at this age. Ask anyone that’s ever changed Shane’s diaper, you cannot get this child to sit still. He’s pretty active but has such a mellow disposition! And Chase is so sweet! The teacher at school says he is friends with everyone in his class! Both boys are doing great! Will update soon once Chase starts all his fall sports!!! Stay tuned!
