Ok, so it's been a few months since my last post. I was able to blame it on not having a camera but since Sam bought me a new one for my birthday, I guess I can't use that one anymore. I have just been lazy and not kept up. I will try harder from now on.
I have been working part time since October at Macy's so that keeps me pretty busy. It's just holiday help at this point but may turn into something more permanent part time after the 1st of the year. I really like it, nice to have a little break without all the whining, being pulled on and everything else that goes along with having 2 little ones.
The boys are doing great. Porter is doing amazing at potty training. We started in August and after the 1st week, he really got it. He now only wears a diaper to bed. Wyatt seems to be getting a ton of teeth all at once. He only had 2 top ones and 3 bottom ones and now he is getting a 3rd on the bottom plus has all his back molars. He is starting to talk so it's funny to hear him in the middle of the night call out "Mommy" or "Daddy"
Sam has been staying busy at work too. We weren't sure how the winter was going to go but it seems to have stayed steady for now. He and the neighbors have been making a lot of sausage (scroll down for a picture) and they are making some more this weekend. They've nicknamed themselves STD Meats (for Sam, Tom and Doug) Tom even had some t-shirts made up for them. Men and their meat...what more do I need to say.
So here are some recent pics...
Porter and Wyatt
I thought this one was so cute.....

Porter's nice shiner.....we were at Macy's one day shopping and Porter was in the back of the stroller and Wyatt was in the front....Wyatt decided to get out....well, that makes the stroller back heavy and Porter tried to stand up at the same time and the stroller tipped over and Porter hit his cheeck on the seat frame.... and within a few minutes his cheek was so swollen that his eye was starting to shut.....it was horrible. It wasn't quite as bad as I thought in the days to follow but still didn't make me feel any less guilty. ...

so we are trying to get ready for the holidays. Lee and Sheri are coming to stay Christmas with us and they are heading out 1st thing the day after Christmas to head to Arizona for a few months. I think we are going to head to Roseburg over New Year's but we will have to see with my work schedule.
Hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!!
