Ok Next Up Midori tagged me with 8 random facts meme about the kids:

1. Ethan is walking! He still likes to crawl since he is so fast, but he is definitely walking now! w00t!

2. Becca spelled her name on the chalk board today!!! ALL BY HERSELF. It is perfectly backwards and missing a few letters but PERFECT IN EVERY WAY.

3. Ethan loves to eat kidney beans. My kids are weird.

4. Becca wore a hole in her knee for the first time ever. She grew so fast and was not active kid before. Now she is super active and not growing quite so crazy.

5. Ethan adores our cat. Our cat adores Ethan. They love to snuggle while I nurse him (Ethan not the cat obviously)

6. Becca can look at books for upwards to an hour without moving or speaking.

7. Ethan still does not sleep through the night but is now down to getting up once or twice. A huge improvement from the four to five times a few months ago.

8. Becca sleeps like a rock. Even Ethan crying in their room does not cause her to stir. We wake her sort of to use the potty before we go to bed, she is barely conscious and returns to bed without musing.

Devilish Southern Belle tagged me for 10 weirdo random facts or habits meme.

1.I chew gum constantly. If I am not eating or sleeping, I am chewing gum.

2.I have not painted my toes since getting pregnant with Ethan. I miss pretty toes but I want to find a less toxic nail polish first.

3.I have grey hair. Like a lot of it. I am trying to decide what to do about it.

4.My husband thinks my grey hair is sexy. I think he is weird.

5.Half way there hmmm … At one point in my life I had two brothers named Jason. Now I have no contact with either.

6.In fact my “real” mom hasn’t spoken to me since I was 18. Before that she has spoken to me a total of a dozen times or so. She left me with my Dad when I was 6 months old (thank the heavens). She has two other children that she took with her.

7.The above sent me to hours upon hours of therapy trying to figure out what was wrong with me.

8.It wasn’t until I met my husband that I came to understand that there is nothing wrong with me, that I am lovable. Thanks husband!

9.I want my husband to get the motorcycle of his dreams. I know most wives are not really thrilled about the idea, but I think it is sexy and he totally deserves to have something outside his job & family that he enjoys (someday, I get my our house first!)

10.I want to get my motorcycle license then build a sidecar for J … ’cause that would be HILARIOUS.

Lastly, forever ago Crystal tagged me for the Page 123 meme:

1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages).
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people.

But most today seem to believe that if sucking of an intense nature stops before the second teeth come in, probably little harm will be done if Nature has lined the teeth up straight to begin with. Our own preference is not to make too much of the whole thing, certainly in the years before Six or so. Most children realize that their parents do not especially favor this behavior. — Your Four Year Old: Wild and Wonderful

Exciting material eh? It is from a series of books that are totally an AWESOME window into the behaviour of children at certain ages. Holly recommended Your Three-Year-Old: Friend or Enemy … and WOW it changed my view on everything! The “solutions” in the books are not really my parenting thing (like in the Three year old book they pretty much say the only solution is to send your kid to preschool because there is no hope till they grow out of that stage). I am also reading Your One Year Old!

Ok I am feeling much much better … Have you played along with all of these yet? I you want to play consider yourself tagged … I need a nap now Have a fabulous weekend!
