18 months

It has started....the tatrums, the kicking, the throwing themselves on the ground, the doing everything they aren't supposed to and laughing at you when you tell them no.  I assume it only gets worse from here...at least for the next year or two.  I hope we make it out alive!!!

School is starting soon and life will get back on some sort of routine.  Clyde is still going well. I can't wait until it gets a bit cooler and I can take the kids to the park more often.  They did just open a splash pad about 15 minutes away.  I plan to take the kiddos..but once school starts.  Maybe it will be less crowded then.

 Presley has become a little mockingbird.  She likes to repeat everything you say which is way cool and a lot of fun.  She still loves to dance and sing and stomp her feet.

Keegan has added some new words to his vocab that he uses a lot.  Book and down.  He likes to climb on stuff but is too fearful to get down by himself so he says "dah dah dah"  He also loves to throw is food.  When you tell him no he laughs and continues and then will hit his hand and laugh.  (We slap his hand and  say no when he does it).

Ashton has a new favorite game called "hide bunny".  I hide this stuffed bunny and then all the kids go look for it.  When Ashton sees it he starts running toward it giggling super loud.  Keegan and Ashton also have started having screaming contests.  The get pretty high pitched.  I think it is so funny but at some point it will probably be annoying.
