Estebans birthday is tomorrow!

So nobody has an excuse to forget! I know everyone reads my blog daily because I'm so witty and insightful .......right? Seriously. We're having his party today. Transformers theme. He's getting such adult presents....an Xbox, games, fun shirts......he'll love it all.

Sophie is still being a pain about the bottle. We've moved her to a sippy cup and she's doing better but still not well enough to keep her happy all day. Coming home on my lunch seems to help a lot though. Hopefully she'll get the hang of it soon. I have officially decided that she no longer fits into her up to 7 pounds shirts....but the pants still work. She's getting so big!!! Except her legs. Those are still small.:)

Nathaniel has surprised me once again! I had no idea he knew how to recognize numbers! I wrote them all out and pointed to them not in order and he knew 1,2,3,5,6,9, and sometimes 10.4,7, and 8 he still is working on. The boy amazes me! His new video game is doing wonders! He is obsessed with that thing and gets so excited when Sammy goes to sleep so he can play it! I can't wait until he has his own DS so he doesn't have to use my pretty pink one.

Sammy is talking a ton now....well a ton for Sammy. He pushes buttons on the tv and says "press play" and he says milk, more, please, fall down, mama bite, bowl, spoon, food, meow, dada, spongebob, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember. Nathaniel and Sammy also sing the goodnight show song together. Very cute. Sammy copies EVERYTHING Nathaniel does. It's pretty funny.

Where is my wallet?

So last week I went to Starbucks for my daily mocha (it was really good) in the morning. In the afternoon, I realized my wallet was gone. I am 80% sure that I put my wallet back in my purse but that would mean that it was taken from work and I hate to think I work with a thief so I assume I left it at Starbucks. Anyways, the idiot spent about $150 and got me $100 in overdraft fees....hopefully that will all be reversed soon. I used the same damn wallet for like 10 years and I just got a new one for Christmas and it gets stolen! Figures. It was so cute too!!! Today I got my license in the mail....return address "found on ren-issaquah rd on 1/17/08" Either a thief with a heart or a really nice person. Anyhow, I'm glad theres nobody out there with my ID. I had to close all of my accounts and get a new card, but at least I have my ID. Hopefully they threw out all my photos....I hate thinking about some creep walking around with photos of my kids. I filed a police report to make it easier to contest the charges with my bank. I know they could care less and won't actually investigate it but I really wish they would so I can know who the idiot is. I hope they enjoyed the pizza, gas, groceries, and new wallet I unwillingly gave them.

Back to work

I started back to work on Friday the 4th! Esteban calls it my paid break and sadly I have to agree. He has the hardest job for sure watching all 3 kids while still working from home! Being away from Sophie is hard since she still isn't taking a bottle. Esteban has to just squirt milk in her mouth. She must be getting something in that tummy because she still is in a good mood when I get home....although she does cry a lot during the day. She loves watching digg nation with Esteban! He is so proud since it's his favorite show! Hopefully she'll take to the bottle soon! On the plus side since she doesn't eat much, she doesn't poop all day until I fedd her after work so Esteban gets out of changing her still! Work is going well. Of course I'm not fully trained in all of the new digital stuff but it's been fun. It will be nice having 2 incomes again again and catching up on bills after Christmas!

And now a note from Nathaniel......

(Sammy doesn't know what that says)

I was so spoiled!

I had the best Christmas ever!!! Esteban got me an iPod touch which I love and a pink Nintendo DS!! He also got 2 games for it. It's so fun! I carry them both everywhere! I also got High School musical for the Wii, a new purse and wallett, starbucks giftcards, a digital keychain, guitar hero, a digital photography book, a diana+ camera, a ukelele, a giant scrapbook and tons of other stuff. It was great! My sister and I all got matching pajamas and Sophie got the cutest sock monkey slippers!! Sleeping at my moms in a room with 10 people wasn't so fun.....I think I slept for an hour or 2 but it was an adventure!:)

Saving the best for Church....

If you remember last years Christmas Eve church service and Nathaniels yelling and dancing then you should know it was coming again. Before Christmas, Annie was in a church play. She was a detective for the Bethlehem PD. It was awesome. We got there late, no chairs left, with all 3 kids. Nathaniel was crying because Esteban wouldn't get off his chair, Sammy decided to start talking and yelled "let's go!" after a line in the play, and Sophie continuously pooped so loud that an usher came to tell me where the changing table was.
