Well, I'm sorry it has been so long again. My mommy just can't keep up with the blog. Since my last post, we have had Thanksgiving, Christmas, my birthday, and Valentines Day is tomorrow. We had a wonderful Christmas. We went to Gma and Gpa Meyers on Christmas Eve and then had a busy Christmas Day at our house and gma and gpa Mauer's. Josie and I got what we wanted from Santa. I got a train table and a Stop sign and Josie got a kitchen set. We were very content with the very little things that we got under the tree from Mommy and daddy and then when my parents told us that Santa had left presents in the play room, Josie and I were even more excited. We played all day, but Josie was not feeling very well. She was running a fever and not her fun playful self. That night we went to gma and gpa Mauer's and got to open more presents. I got two Nerf guns and they are so awesome to play with. The days following Christmas Josie still was not feeling well and had to go to the Dr. She had a really bad sinus infection. It was so bad she had snot coming out of her eyes. It was gross. After 17 days of an antibiotic and some steroids due to her getting croup, she was on her way to getting better. Only to find out 4 weeks later, she got croup again. Mommy has started her back on Prevacid because the doctor has explained that constant croup goes along with acid reflux. I guess time will tell.
After Christmas, we had my4th birthday party. I was kind of crabby when people started arriving as mommy had to wake me up. I was so crabby that mommy let me open a present from gma and gpa Meyers as soon as they walked in. I guess after that every time somebody walked in I thought it was okay to grab their present and open it. Nobody got to see all the cool presents that I got. Mommy feels bad because she didn't even know who to thank for what. Here is my THANK YOU to everyone for coming and bringing me the cool gifts. I enjoyed everyone of them.
Now that the holidays are over I will just share a little bit about my sister and I. I am now 4 years old and still going to preschool 2 days a week 1/2 days. I love school. My teachers told my mom that I am so well behaved, share with my friends, and get a long with everyone. Mommy has a hard time believing that I am so good at school because I am still ornery at home. I don't always follow directions right away so mommy and daddy get frustrated. I still have a hard time using words instead of kicking or hitting someone when I don't like what has happened. I am working on that. Mommy and daddy bought a new timer so we are starting to work on setting time limits for everything. One of my favorite things to do right now is play the Lego game on daddy's PlayStation 3. I would spend hours doing this if my mommy and daddy would let me. I also like to play on the IPad or the Nintendo DS. I guess you could call me a gamer now. Enough about me, let's talk about Josie.
Josie has been a sick little girl this fall and winter. She has now had croup like 15 times in her life. She just can't kick a cold without getting croup. As you can see from the picture above, Josie climbs on everything. She no longer requires a gate on the stairs because she jumps over it. She is able to climb on the chairs and get on to the island in the kitchen so she has to be watched all the time. She has managed to draw on the TV screen in the kitchen, broke the screen on the window from climbing on the window sill, and continues to climb and push limits everyday. She loves the Gigglebellies and watching them every night before she goes to bed. She is still in a crib, but mommy and daddy have been trying to get me to allow her to sleep with me. They think she would make me sleep in my bed all night. According to mommy, Josie is a much better sleeper than I have ever been. Oh well!
I'm sorry that we have a hard time keeping up with the blog, but there is just so much going on. Mommy is going to start coaching my soccer team again this spring. I love when she coaches. I will get to play with the same kids that I played with last fall and adding two more of my friends/neighbors. I can't wait for March! Mommy and daddy are doing well. Mommy stays busy teaching her "naughty kids" everyday and daddy is still at Con Agra. I hope all is well with everyone and hope to talk to you soon.
