Yesterday was my little man's 10 month birthday.  So hard to believe that in just a few short months he will be 1.  Crazy how time has just flown by.  I just love to see his little toothy smile.  Everytime I walk in to his room after a nap he has such a huge smile on his face.  I just love it!!  It has been confirmed, Emily does in fact have an imaginary friend.  And the name of such friend - why Emily of coarse.  I am so glad she likes her name so much.  I caught her being cute the other day with some toys she left in the hall.  As she was walking to them from Preston's room she said, "Hey guys, are you ready for the wedding?"  I am not sure who was getting married.  I think it was Ariel and Ken, but not sure.  She saw a wart that Dean has on his arm and pointed to it.  She asked him what it was, he told her.  She told him that he got it from a frog that touched his arm.  And that she didn't get it b/c she was a Princess.  She had it all figured out!  Preston had a Basketball game today and I finally got to go.  I haven't been able to go since Emily's ballet class is at the same time as his games on Saturday.  So, since today's game was on a weekday, I could go!  He was cute out there, but could def use some more practice.  I told Dean he needed to practice with him more.  I think Preston really likes to play, but it was sometimes tough to watch.  The coach seems to take it a bit too serious than I would think he should for a team of 6 year olds.  Well, another weekend has past and no Chuck E Cheese for the kids.  So, you know what that means - no one cleaned their rooms, yet again!  I wonder if they don't care for Chuck E Cheese anymore.  So, I tell them that they won't be able to go anymore, and they both say - YES!!, but neither is willing to do what is required to go.  So who knows.  Not sure what to do to motivate them to clean up after themselves.  Frustrating...... On another note - getting so excited for Jacob's 1st birthday.  I know it won't be a big party, but I want to make it his big day anyway.  His big day is going to be a little early since my mom is going to come visit mid March during Brandon's spring break.  So, we are going to have his party while she is there and b/f Dean leaves for more training.  Dean is going to miss Jacob's actual B-Day, he doesn't get back until the day after.  So, am trying to have a big blow out for Jacob b/f Dean leaves too.  I know it is a few months away still, but a lot left to do!  I can't wait!!
