Hello!
Hello everyone! Sorry for the lack of posts and pictures. We still don't have a wireless router yet to hook up internet on our comuter. I promise, once we have our internet up and running I will blog more often again, and I'll put up tons of new pictures of the kids.
Speaking of the kids, they are cuter then ever! Raquelle is starting to string words together and is becoming quite the talker. She says "Bye, see you" for "see you later" She says "there she is" when she plays peek a boo, and she asks for specific foods now like chocolate, cereal, sippy, banana, and cracker. She is picking up new words all the time. The other day, I put some fake flowers on the table and she pointed at them and said "flower!" Neither Thad or I taught her that, but there was a flower earlier in the day on Blues Clues.
Titus is talking now too! His first word was "mama" followed shortly by "dada". Now he also says "baba, cracker, and hi". Though really he just babbles cracker and hi and doesn't seem to know what they mean. He can stand up now if I stand him up against the couch. Today, he took his first step along the couch. He does not pull himself up yet though. He is a champion scooter and seems to see no need to pick his belly up off the floor and crawl since he can scoot so fast. We are still waiting for him to sleep through the night. My theory is that he is so big he just can't go that long without eating. He is tipping the scale at 21 lbs still and is as tall as the toddlers I babysit. Raquelle is still 24 lbs and the kids can now share clothes, but I won't put Titus in pink, so don't worry.
That's about all for now. Since moving, Thad is now applying for a job as a corrections officer. He has the first application done but there are several more forms to fill out and turn in before they will look at his app. It looks like he has a good shot at getting the job as he has one of the teachers at the academy as a reference. Be praying that the job change comes soon for us so Thad can stop commuting for work.
