ridiculous

Hello everyone,

Landrie here. I have taken over the blog for the moment to apologize for my mommy and let you know I'm pushing her to post something on her REAL soon. If she doesn't hurry it is going to be my first birthday party and she's not going to post that either.

She still needs to share my 9 and 10 month chunk chart pictures, pictures from our first family vacation to Omaha and some really cute pictures from March and April.

Mom keeps saying she wants to post on here but with Daddy doing homework every night, the end of the school year coming, the care walk, Easter, Daddy being busy two weekends in a row with Bachelor parties, and trying to keep the house show ready she doesn't have time. Excuses, Excuses, I keep telling mom to keep it to herself, being busy is a part of life.

So since mom can't update you all I'm going to, but I will not be able to post pictures as I'm not sure how to do that yet :)

Mom : She is busy at school and has had a great year! She is still feeding me which I greatly enjoy, but says she is disappointed in the breastfeeding diet she was promised and watched work for Aunt Amy and Aunt Nikki.

Dad : He is busy working, going to class, and studying. He still helps Jaren and I go to bed every night he is here before he starts homework then stays up till 12 or 1 doing homework which is why he ends up taking naps in his truck over his lunch hour. Crazy Daddy. He is so much fun, I love him tons!!!

Jaren : Well I don't know if I need to say more than he is almost 3. He is my brother and I love him! I watch him all the time and see that he is either REALLY happy and fun to play with or REALLY mad and throwing himself about on the floor before mom and dad take him to time out. Most of the time he is happy, but man when he is mad, he is mad. He does tend to have a bit of OCD as well. Always making sure EVERYTHING is in a perfect line, and he has to do it all himself. Mom and Dad don't even know how to put things away correctly some times. I say make him do it himself and while he's at it make him pick up my toys too :) Jaren is constantly talking, and singing. Current favorites are the star spangled banner and BINGO. He is in love with all things on wheels still and is SOOOOO excited every time we go to the place mom and dad are calling the ANDALE house. Mom and dad say we are going to move there the First weekend in June, I like it there Grandma and Grandpa put all new carpets in the whole house and the is so nice for me. Also, my room is big, even bigger than Jarens, which he is not to fond of. Jaren can recognize all of his letters by name and sound. He can count to 20 (forgetting 4 most of the time, but other than that no problems) Boy does he love books too, he wants to be read to all the time, that or to play the IPAD with mommy. That is of course if mom and dad force him to come inside, he would stay there 24-7, which wouldn't be bad either since he is still struggling in the potty area. Maybe once he turns three he'll catch on.

Me : Well I'm cute as ever, but I didn't need to say that I'm sure. My hair is at the funny stage, where mom has to do something with it, but nothing looks quiet right. She keeps putting these little clips in it, but I was given her fine thin hair, so they don't have a prayer of staying and people are constantly messing with it. Then there is this pony tail thing she keeps trying to do which just turns out looking similar to alfalfa since I have no wave at all in my hair, that is thanks to both mom and dad. I have been crawling for a while now and pull my self to stand on anything and everything then cruise around. I just this week started walking with toys and think I'm pretty cool when I do that. I love to dig things out of cabinets if I can find one that has been left open, and don't mind a stroll in the walker with mom and dad in the evenings. I still don't have any teeth, but mom tells me this is a good thing cause I may not get any more milk once I spring a tooth. I am babbling constantly and I keep saying Dadda, but mom keeps telling me no no no momma, not sure why I really just want my dad :)

Well that should be good for now to tie you over till I can get mom to do something around here and post the cute pictures of me ;) I'll keep working on her!
