Has it really been 10 months since I last blogged? I'd love to give a bazillion excuses, but realistically, I just haven't felt much in the creative mood. So many things have happened that it just became quite overwhelming, and I retreated into a not so creative environment. But now, I hope to be back at least on a weekly basis as I am missing so many funny stories from the boys that have happened.

Ok, okay...quick update. Tyler is almost nine...can you believe it? I believe when I began writing this blog he was five. It is amazing to me how time flies. Ty is doing fantastic in school...couldn't be prouder; but when he is out of school, he is so wrapped up in his friends that it is impossible to have five minutes without him saying, "ok, what time can I play with my friends?" In five years I went from being best buddies with him to low man on the totem poll.



Joshy on the other hand is ALL about hanging around and lovin' on his mama. He is all boy though, just the same. Ever since Josh was born, I knew he had a daredevil instinct and boy was I dead on. He is the funniest, most energetic three-year old I have ever met. He has begun preschool and is doing better than we ever expected. He and his brother both should be able to take care of Shawn and me when we are older as they are likely to be doctors, lawyers, racecar drivers...



This year we are planning our first family vacation (without seeing my family in NY or Shawn's in NC) to Disney World. Everyday it seems that Josh is asking if he can hold Mickey's hand. Of course, I smile and nod and secretly hope he holds mine too.
