Wow, time flies!!
It's been a while since I've posted anything on here. It's hard to believe that Mikey's almost 9 months old and Honor's a whopping 2 1/2!! Mikey's trying to assert some independence but the "Mikey Police" aka Big Sister Honor is always on the prowl making sure he doesn't have too much fun or make too much noise unless it's crying. She's really trying to be a good big sister but it's so hard for a 2 year old to share toys (or Mom) with a little brother who slobbers on everything worse than the dogs. It's so funny how Honor will go get a wipe and clean off anything that Mikey has drooled on before she'll play with it.
Mikey's getting so big and so determined to walk. He knows how to crawl and can do it pretty fast but he'd much rather cruise along anything he can stand up and support himself on and now he's already trying to climb on anything that looks worth the effort. He's feeding himself more and more, I think he's going to turn in to a Cheerio if he keeps eating them as much as he does!
Darren and I are doing great, we really love Grafton and have decided to stay in the apartment in hopes that within a year we'll be able to find a house here. I've made some friends here who also have little girls around Honor's age and we go out a few days a week and walk on the high school track while the girls play.
Darren's working at EMC in Westborough so he's much closer now and gets to spend more time with the kids and if you read the previous entry he's really enjoying my cooking adventures.
Both of the Grandma's are now in the area, Darren's mom is in Millbury and my mom is living in an apartment in South Grafton until her house is done. It's great having them so close to help out and the kids love seeing them so often. It's was great that Darren's dad got to come down about a month ago and see the kids since he hadn't seen them except from pictures we sent him.
Mikey's trying to grab the laptop from me so I'll stop here.
Bye for now!!
