Life is Crazy!!

So I decided I really need to get better at this... I'm a slacker when it comes to updating our blog... Anyways... Everyone is doing pretty good... David is busy busy with going to school and working... Skyler is getting very very vocal!! He is starting to get a big attitude and he's only 2 1/2... he has started wanting to go on the big boy potty which is very exciting!! Skyler got one of those musical potties for his 2nd birthday (we bought it for him because one of david's buddies at work said it worked the best... NOT!!!) He absolutely hates the little potty... so a couple weeks ago I went and bought him a little seat that sits on the big potty and a stool so he could get on it by himself... we'll at first he didn't want anything to do with it because a couple months ago he watched daddy flush a dead fish down the toilet... (BIG MISTAKE) don't EVER let your two year old watch you do that!! He was afraid of the potty because he would tell me... "NO mommie fish get me!" I had to explain to him that the fish were NOT going to get him and when he understood that he got on and off the potty a million times I swear!! But to be honest I don't mind it because it means he's getting the concept.... potty training is SO much fun!! (Sarcasm!) Skyler loves to pick on his little brother already!! yay for mommie!!! Not!! He thinks Gaige is his wrestling companion... Gaige is getting to be a very big boy too!! He is 11 months old and already weighs almost 20 POUNDS!!! He is a chunk!! He's really not that big but compared to Skyler who didn't weigh 20 pounds til he was almost 2!! It's amazing how different each one of your kids are!! Anyways.... Gaige is learning to walk... we know he can walk he is just refusing too... we think its because he is such a fast crawler and when I saw fast I mean FAST!!! I call him our crazy crawler!! He likes to make faces at himself in the mirror its hilarious!! He is a jabber-jaw!! Gaige likes to play with the big boys... I love my boys more than life itself!! I couldn't ask for more perfect kids!! Its funny because Gaige will be 1 years old on the 7th of next month and every one is already asking when we are going to start trying for another one... and our answer is its ALL up to the lord really.... and they ask well are you hoping your next one is a girl? and I alwayz say I would LOVE to have a little girl but boys are fun too and I am happy with either one I just want happy healthy kids... besides we aren't stopping with 2 or 3 or even for kids we want a big family so I'm sure I'll get a girl sooner or later... besides at the moment I have one niece (soon to be two) to spoil and a few of my good friends have little girls so I will spoil them too... This last month I have been busy watching kids, cleaning our house, doing laundry, taking care of our boys and my husband, i've been trying to clean up our craft/weight room downstairs, and clean up my laundry/haircutting area too... David asked me what I wanted for my birthday thats at the end of this month and I told him all I want is for my haircutting area to be cleaned up organized and the floor to be tiled!! cement isn't all that exciting to stand on in bare feet!! Well every one is doing AWESOME here at the Joos house... (i'll post pictures soon)
