oh my......

i just looked at the blog and realized in horror - i have kept everyone in the dark for so long about how things are and what is happening - but honestly do you come to the blog to read or look at pictures?
so here it is
Silas is 3 now -
his b-day party was a blast!!! literally - we had the party at a local "bouncy house" place and he jumped and jumped - we had about 15 people come to party and he got lots of super heros or "bad guys" as he likes to call them
so we are knee deep in batmans and spidermans which is wonderful because the super heros like to pretend to play family in the doll house :)
Silas is working very hard to use the potty - we tried the usual tricks of chocolate which worked wonderfully with Sadie - but he is a wise little guy and held out
so we are using other methods of bribing - cars, superheros, plastic insects and animals - but it is working
Sadie is growing up so super fast - she picks out her clothes every night and gets herself dressed every day, she loves to cook and makes eggs, muffins and cookies
she is reading basic words and is learning to read full sentences
both kids spend most of their days drawing pictures - a typical day in our house involves lots of art supplies!
i have so many other stories to tell but right now we are enjoying the spring time weather
we are finally able to go down to the beach and collect beach glass
and we go for long walks and hikes on the weekends
we are still working out the logistics of school - Silas though will be going to http://www.montessori-holyrosary.org/ and we are waiting to hear back form a few schools for Sadie
aside from that we are busy planning the garden and playing as much as possible
i apologize for my few words - but life can get busy!
