This guy has always had personality, but in the last week or so he's just been busting with it! He is SO much fun, and I have been quite happy to neglect the computer to have fun with him.
His latest thing has been to hold out his hand to me and say "Hand momma? Hand?" Then when I take his hand he leads me around the kitchen table in circles, giggling. Or he'll take me outside and show me the neighbors dogs. Or he'll take me to his blocks and ask me to play with him.
I have decided I don't want to miss the special thing he has in store for me when he asks for my hand, so I won't say no to his sweet request.
Which means a whole new balance has to be found... and long story short, I've determined that I will only be on the computer when the littles are sleeping and Paul is otherwise occupied. And that will include my work-time on the computer too. So while the blog will continue to be updated, it won't be very often.
The littles are too important. And they won't be little for long.
Judah's buddy gave him some underwear and he wears it on his head... a lot. I tried putting it on him like normal people wear underwear and he cried and said "No momma, on head!" So on his head it went. And stayed. As soon as we move the potty training is going to start!
This morning Judah helped me make some Banana Muffins. His job was to lick the bowl. He did it quite well. We made a whole bunch of "baby" muffins and we enjoyed eating them for a late breakfast.
When Judah got up this morning he greeted me with "Hey hottie!"
Oh how I love this boy :)
It also hit him today that he's two. He held up two fingers and yelled "TWO. It's TWWWWWOOOO!" And then he held up two different fingers and giggled and said "TWO!" And then he picked up two toys and told me "TWO!" again.
I love his enthusiasm.
It's contagious.

Cherish these moments. You are doing the right thing! By the way, you will ALWAYS want to be there no matter what stage. I still LOVE to listen and be part of the girls' days!!! That is the joy of homeschooling!!
Your house sounds like a lot of fun. I'm glad you are able to stay at home and spend a ton of time with your two little boys. Especially one that thinks you're a hottie and wears underwear on his head! ;o)
This post made me smile. I love to hear about Judah and it's funny how I feel like I know him, just by reading your blog. I think two is a smashingly fun age... I'd enjoy those boys too, if I were you.
What a delightful boy you have there. I am glad that you are taking the time to see what he wants to show you! :-)
What a great mama post. I love it, and I definitely think that more people should have their priorities in line like you seem to.
I love cooking with the kids. Ben got Paula Dean's kids cookbook and we make stuff from it all the time. It's one of my favorite things to do.
