Christmas and Beyond!

So it is the middle of January and I still haven't posted about Christmas...So here it is. The pictures seem to be more fun for me to post and they are easier than writing a whole long story:)
Kiddo update:
Ace-He is almost completely potty-trained but we still are working on getting him through the night. He is talking sooo much! He is a very funny little guy. "Wangampo...Anai" He learned this from Pukeahontous (Pocahontas) and says it quite often. It means Hello...Goodbye. He has really been into Disney movies lately and loves to "snuggle with banket and have snack" while we watch them. I am soaking up all this because before you know it that little guy will be in school:( He had a Pre-school screening last week (I think we are still going to wait until 2014 to send him though) and the ladies were so impressed! He had a vision test, hearing and they watched how he played with toys. I am loving being the mama of this little guy.
Gentry-She has been working on tying shoes. She does a pretty good job but gets frustrated fast. So we do it just a few minutes a day so she doesn't get too upset about it.  She also had been really into spelling out words. So she will say how do you spell "Megan"? (This is what she asks to be called at home...not sure why) and I will say "Okay lets sound it out" and she smiles and goes forth with figuring it out. She is just a little genius in my opinion.! She is like a sweet tart...such a sweet little gal but has a kick of sassyness that comes:) Love her!

Crazy behaviors by ChipLeigh

Say hello to me little friend...ChipLeigh! She is our Elf that visited us last Christmas and surprisingly came back this year. She is a cute little thing, until she gets busy in the PM. She is quite the little mess, kind of like my two beans:)

So that's alot of pictures but it sums up the last month and half that I have missed! We are gearing up for Christmas in a few days and then ready to start the new year and have it be the best year yet!
Update on Ace: He is about 85% potty-trained! We started the week of Halloween and he goes almost everyday accident free. At night he does wear a diaper and underwear on top (so he still has the feeling on them) and most mornings will wake up dry!) Hopefully in a few months we will be 100%! He is talking so well, sometimes too well! He picks up on EVERYTHING and I mean everything so we really have to watch what we talk about in front of him!
Gentry: She is doing so good in school and we are ready for her Christmas break. Our goal is to get numbers 1-10 good as far a writing them goes. Also we want to work on tying shoes and hope to get that down. We will see how it goes!
