The Latest.

So, after reading my friends blogs where they keep everyone updated about the super cute things their babies are doing, I figured I needed to add my two cents. Monkey is doing great! He gives hugs (unless he's upset with me, then when I ask him for a hug he says in his little voice "no." It's very short and clipped, but sooo cute). He also gives kisses, real kisses. He started out just giving us his cheek so that we could kiss him, then Jorellech and Squeaky's mom bribed him with candy to give kisses (hooray for aunts!) which worked really well. So he evolved to kissing on the lips with his mouth wide open. Very slobbery, but oh-so-cute. He now gives the cutest little kisses ever. They're as cute as he is. :)
We're excited for Halloween. I'll be sure to take lots of pictures tomorrow for the pumpkin massacre, I mean carving.
Monkey is doing really well with Squeaky. He'll pat him softly on the head and give him kisses, too, though sometimes he says "down!" when I'm holding squeaky. Usually, though, he's content if whoever is holding Squeaky holds him too.
Hockey is going great. We had a lot of fun at the game last night, playing against a team that was at our level (last week it was a team a level above us and we got whompped).
Well, I can't think of anything else of interest to add, so I guess I'll leave it at this.

Updating Blog

This is a post for the sake of having a post. (Can't stand not updating my blog for more than a month).
Monkey is doing great, he can say so many words now! I had hockey practice on Monday and as Hubby had to work late I had to take Monkey with me (there is a babysitter there). The first time he did really well there, but since his new cousin, Squeaky, was born he has been super clingy. Needless to say he had a rough time.
In fact, the day after Squeaky was born we went to visit them in the hospital and Hubby gave Monkey to Jorellech to hold (she's so proud of all her nephews, we've got a totally cute picture of them all togather...hmmmm, maybe i'll upload it) while he held Squeaky. As soon as Monkey realized his father was two timeing on him, he got down from Jorellech's arms (he LOVES Jorellech) and clung to daddy's pants until he picked him up. Monkey didn't stop clinging until we'd left.



Then, a few days later when I was visiting them at home, Monkey was running around perfectly content while I held Squeaky, but I guess I held him too long. Monkey came up to me and motioned that he wanted to get on my lap, saying "down!" I guess he wanted me to put Squeaky down. What a cutie. :)
