Sorry it's been so long. It's been a rather busy few months.
Brendan is completely potty-trained now!
Luke is starting to talk a lot more, although you still have to be paying very close attention in order to catch anything he's saying.
This afternoon I was finishing unpacking their room when I walked out to the living room to put something in the Co-op box. There was Luke, sitting at their little desk, sharing his pacifier with a stuffed puppy. He'd give the dog a turn, then take a turn himself. Very cute and sweet.
Brendan has fallen in love with Curious George. Oma bought him a book of Curious George stories last week and it is his new favorite. Today, he named his sock monkey "George". I pointed out that it wasn't actually Curious George and he looked at me and said very firmly and matter-of-factly, "George!" And that was that.
Our new house is very nice. I'm happy with it. It's much smaller than I'm used to, but I'm trying to use that as motivation to get us more organized and to get rid of the stuff we never use anyway. There are a few things that need to be fixed, but the landlord is working on them. It's going to work out well.
The new little one is doing great. Spends a lot of time bouncing around. Michael has already felt him move once. I'm so happy to be pregnant again; another new little one to love and raise, what could be more wonderful?
