Ok, this video was taken about a month ago...blogger hasn't let me upload it the last 3 times I've tried.
Well they're growing so fast!!!! Everyone told me they would but I didn't realize HOW fast!
Nathan amazes me everyday at how smart he is! He loves to talk and throw balls. His new phrase is "Oh sure!" it's so funny! He has such an incredible sports ability for a 2 year old!! He can shoot his basketball at the Little Tykes b-ball hoop we got him for outside and MAKE IT! I'm so impressed. He can almost ride his little tricycle from Grandma Welch by himself and he LOVES to play soccer. I can't wait until next year when he can be on a team of some sort to use all of his energy for something good! He knows about 10 shapes and all of his colors and can count to 20 all by himself! I'm amazed! He loves to sing primary songs and he actually can carry a tune.
Knowly is walking all over and understands sooooo many words! He handed Daniel something yesterday and Daniel told him to take it to Mommy and Knowly turned around found me and gave it to me. I asked him to go wake up Nate one day and he ran/crawled REALLY FAST to Nate's room and said his favorite word, "hut" it's what he says for everything. He can say uh-oh and hut that's it! Another big step for him is that HE's WEENED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOORAY!!!!!!!!!! For the next 6 months or so I'm not going to be a cow!! I'll be fat but at least I won't be milking too! It was really easy. I just couldn't take it anymore. I never slept and I was always so tired so finally the doctor said he was old enough and 15 days before his 1st b-day is not going to make any difference so I cut him off cold turkey and he's done great. He went from waking up every hour and nursing to sleeping 11 hours STRAIGHT!!!!!!! we don't hear from him unless he's wet through his diaper around 6am but he'll usually go back to sleep until 7:30 or so! Oh I'm so thrilled! We have been very blessed with this whole situation.
Daniel's in school and I'm pregnant and a mother of two toddlers, who has time for anything else? My eyes are doing well. I go in next week for a check up and will probably have to have another laser treatment done to my left eye (the one that only had the cataract removed) to open up the sack again but it's painless. I'm seeing fine but I'll see great again after they do that!
The Lord blesses us beyond measure everyday! I know it's because of His help that I make it through the day most days.
The pictures of the boys were taken by some friends at church who have a photography business, I'm waiting to get the CD with all of them but these are a couple that they posted on Facebook for me. The family pic was taken by my sister in law Amber.

It's so good to hear from you again! Your family looks great and your boys are getting so big!
Hey Meg...Just read your post. Had no idea Knowly fed every HOUR!! Holy cow. don't know if you've ever read it but I would highly recommend you read the book Becoming Baby Wise. My pediatrician recommended it to us and its had Alli sleeping through the night since she was 7 weeks. We only get up if she needs a diaper change but she goes from 9pm to 8am without a feeding. The book really helped me focus on her schedule.
The pictures that Joanna took are amazing! I especially love the one of Knowly! Thanks for updating even though I talk to you practically everyday, lol. See you when you get home!
Its so fun to see and hear about your boys! They are getting so big, and they look so handsome!!
