Baby, baby & baby!

Baby #1
My, how fast they grow. T is baby #1 and he is a big boy. He even tells me he is a big boy. He wants to go to school on a bus and everything. But he will always be my baby boy.
T still has that armpit thing. Only now, he is a big boy and will touch my arm pit, telling me he is doing so, then smell his hand. Now, I know what your thinking, how gross. And yes, I agree, however, remember he is my baby. And he tells me that 'mama's armpits smell good.' I ask him what do they smell like and he tells me 'cake!' I am flattered and grossed out all at the same time. I ask him what his armpits smell like and he tells me 'frosting!' When you ask about papa's armpits he tells you 'gross!' Maybe I am the only one who thinks this is hilarious, but really you have to laugh. Soon enough his is going to be bringing home bugs and frogs. And I will not find them until after I have taken his clothes out of the dryer.
We have been telling T that Santa won't take him to Costco if he doesn't sleep in his big boy bed. I never had any intention of introducing my kids to the concept of Santa, but rather T told me Santa brings presents and T wants things from Costco, hence, Santa taking him to Costco. I would like to thank Tom Hanks and the makers of the Polar Express, the Grinch who stole X-mas, for introducing the idea of Santa into my world. In 5 years I will blog about T coming home from school in such a sad state because little bully butthead told him that Santa is a fake.
Baby #2
E is growing in to the little girl with a passion to drive her mama & papa NUTS! She has so much energy, it is totally insane. Her new thing is screaming with pleasure. Like when she gets a treat or here big brother is blowing bubbles. It is a loud, high pitch, cringing type of scream.
She has a good vocabulary going on. Lots of things to say, however we don't always understand or we have to explain that cookies are not a breakfast food.
E loves her big brother. She likes to sit on him, pull his hair, play ring-around-the roses with him and give him big hugs.
E has some sort of internal devise that does not allow her to sleep in her our bed. If you even try, she wakes up. Boy is she in for a surprise when we bring her baby sister home from the hospital. However, she does love babies. She even loves her dolls & stuffed animals. Although they are often times found naked. For some reason she likes to take off their clothes. As she likes to take off her own!! She tries to take off her clothes when we go to the store and look at clothes. She starts pulling things off and pointing yelling 'pretty, pretty.'
E also has no fear. No fear of falling, of jumping and she is a rough houser. Totally not like her brother. She through caution into to wind. Even when she bumps her head or gets hurt, she cries just long enough to get hugs & love and then she is off. I never thought that I would be a mama of a girl, and now to think I am going to have two!!
Baby #3
Well, we are almost at 6 1/2 months. Time is sure flying by. February will be here sooner than I want it to. Not that I am not ready to meet this blessing, it just that I wonder if we are ready for #3. She will make us parents of 3 kids under 4. I know we will be just fine. I just hope that we can be the best parents to all 3 of our babies. All the while not letting Kevin & Walter, (mostly Kevin) take us away from them and stressing them out because of the drama he likes to bring.
Baby 3 is a mover that is for sure. Lots of kicks and she moves a ton. She also like Mexican food. Spicy is good!! I think that T will have his work cut out for him having two sisters.
I guess I have rattled on for long enough.......

Is the streaking over??

Looks like E is past the nude & streaking phase. Oh, and the duct tape, only worked for like a day. After my last post she figured out how to get the tape off. Thus the diaper went with it. Papa tried a onies. Does not work. E pulls the diaper off and has the onies still on. Papa pined her top to her pants. Still E found a way to pull that stinkin' diaper off. Papa put 'big girl' undies on her. E tells us that they are pretty. And she finally stops pulling the diaper off.
T went to Disneyland with his Auntie Carrie, my sister, this last Saturday. He had a great time. Carrie will hopefully send me the pics soon. Or they will be on her myspace page. T had a GREAT time and wants to go back. He got to see Mickey, Goofy and Minnie, who he kissed on the nose much to everyone's surprise. But the highlight for T was the princesses. He really likes the princesses. Cinderella, Snow White, Pocahontas. Who he loving calls 'Pocapotas'. He has never seen the movie that I know of and yet he loves this princess. So T gets in line with Auntie and she notes that he is like the only boy in line. T got great pics with the princesses, 'Pocapotas' & Snow White. He went right up to them and talked to them and even asked them to sit with him. Auntie noted this is not part of the princess thing to sit. But both did. Pocahontas & T sat down and hung out. When we met to pick up T, Papa asked how D-Land was and T told us all about it. Papa asked if T got the princesses phone numbers. Much to Papa's delight and Mama's dismay, he said yes. Now T wants to go back. I am so glad he had a great time.
While T was chillin' with the ladies, E stayed home with us. She has never been without T for so long. I don't think she knew what to do with herself. She had Mama all to herself. She was my little shadow all weekend. I got lots of hugs an cuddles from her. It was nice. I hope that she will keep it up. She has not been so cuddly since she learned to move her body. I think she backs off when T is around. Today she did not back off and she just butted right in for the hugs. I hope she keeps it up.
Baby in the tummy is kicking up a storm. And if I have not told you we, had an ultra sound and it looks like a girl. Papa is holding out for the twig & berries to pop out. Papa keeps reminding me it is not 100% until the baby is born. He's in denial. He also said that if it is a girl we have to have another one to give T a fair shot of having a little bother. This topic has been tabled. I plead the 5th and will kick Papa if he continues to bring up having another baby while I am still prego.
T&E are so much fun I am not all that sure about going through the hole baby thing over and over again. But that is a topic for another day.

I have posted pics of the sad ballerina and grumpy penguin on myspace. I have serious computer issues with pics. So check out myspace for the Oct 31st Short experience.
