Way Over Due....

Okay so I am pathetic my last blog was in October lol!! So much has happened between then and now and I need to do so much better with updating my blog so I can remember all the crazy things my kids do. Anyways I guess I should give an update lol!!

Dexter just turned 3!! I still can't believe that I have a 3 year old. He is such a cute little fart and he definitely keeps Nick and I on are toes at all times. There is nothing that Dexter won't do.... It is quite exhausting being his mom but I love him so much!!  We took him to the monster jam for his birthday and I think it is the first time since he was born that he sat completely still for an entire hour lol!! It was a miracle. We will definitely be going back next year!! We went to Fairmont with my family for his birthday and like always he was spoiled rotten. My kids seriously have it so good. I guess one of the big upsides to having kids first in your family is all your siblings can spoil them cause they don't have kids yet lol!! I am sure that will change very soon though!! Anyways we got back from Fairmont and had a party for Dex with the Bennett clan too and it was a lot of fun!! He got spoiled once again!! I have been trying to potty train this kid for about a month straight now and I am getting so frustrated but I will not give up. One thing I know for sure is that Dex is stubborn lol!! I wonder where he gets that from!! Anyways wish me luck and let's hope it clicks for him  very soon or I might be sent to the loony bin!!


Trouble with a capital "T" lol!!
 


Knox is almost 1!! Just a few more weeks till the big day!! Still can't believe it. This year has flown by. Knox is such a sweet child. He spends most of his days laughing at his big brother and trying to avoid being smothered by him as well. Knox is already saying a bunch of words like mom, dad, Dexter, bampah (his favorite), mamah, cheese, tickle tickle and the one I am getting all the time is no, no, no and he waves his little finger (Thanks Auntie Kinzee for teaching him that lol!!). He will be walking any day now and he just has such a sweet spirit!! But don't get me wrong he definitely has an attitude lol!! Like most men he is cranky when he is hungry or tired and screams till he gets his way. That I must admit he got from his father lol!!
 
Such a handsome little stink lol!!
 
Speaking of Nick he  is turning 30 next weekend!! I must admit that he is freaking out just a little bit lol!! It is a good thing that he looks so stinking young. But let me tell you boy am I glad I married someone 5 years older than me. It always makes me feel so young lol!! Nick is such an awesome husband and dad. I am one very lucky girl!! I am sure his 30's will be very good to him!!  
 
Such a good daddy!!
 
 
As for me I feel like I am crazy busy but all I do is take care of the boys and study. That is literally my life in a nutshell lol!! I can't wait for school to be over and I am just praying that I can find a job that works for me and my little family. I am really opposed to putting my kids in daycare so I am just hoping that I can find an evening or nights position. Everyone keep your fingers crossed for me.
 


So all in all Ii am feeling very blessed lately to have such an amazing little family!!  Although I am very outnumbered I am really enjoying being the mother of two little boys. I never had a little brother so I am having loads of fun playing with cars, pirate ships, planes, trains, and just getting my hands dirty all the time. The boys seriously change outfits atleast 3 times a day. It amazes me the kind of messes they make and the trouble they can get into but it definitely keeps life interesting and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
There's ALWAYS one child not looking lol!!
O well what can ya do...
