I'm so sick of being sick. Both boys have a little of it(Luke's got a runny nose & Matthew has some congestion)....mine started w/a sore throat & now it's in my nose....UGH!!! It never fails....I'm either sick on Thanksgiving or Christmas....sometimes both.
Luke's working on his 4th tooth. And he's still getting very close to walking....soon!! Matthew is talking up a storm...new words every day.
I started watching the old Christmas shows w/him. He loves Frosty the Snowman. BUT he also loves all the Santa's in every show(yet he's scared of the 1 in the mall)...lol!!
I have a wonderful church family. They provided us w/the food to make a Thanksgiving meal. It was sweet of them! They know we are struggling & they decided we needed their help. We are truly blessed to have such a wonderful church family.
OUCH!!!! I'm starting to get body pains...UGH!!!

October 2009
It's been a long month. Too much stuff going on this past month that kept me from being able to update our blog.
Luke turned 9 months on the 15th....went & had his check-up....he was not real happy getting his shots though. Wayne went w/us...he wasn't too happy w/needles being in the same room as him...lol
Luke started saying "mama". Now that's how he wakes us up every morning. SWEET!!! He also started clapping(on his own) on the 28th of October. We were over at Wayne's parents & PaPa was holding him & he just started clapping. Luke is so close to walking. He wants to do it...you can see it in his face. He has mastered pulling up....has had that down for a long time now. He was doing that way early...according to the info I've seen on the internet as well as in books & the info given from the doctor.
Luke wants to be everywhere his big brother is.....follows him everywhere.
Matthew is talking so much now. He makes so many different sentences. It's amazing! He picks up words fast now...gotta watch what is said..lol!
The other day, we were headed over to Wayne's parents & Matthew saw McDonalds....he said I want chicken & fries...lol He also will ask for fries when we do the drive thru at the bank...lol Now don't get me wrong....we don't eat junk/fast food all the time. He just has a memory like an elephant. He will remember that you told him yesterday what he/you would do today. Smart lil' booger!!
I took them to Little Blessings Fall Party last Thursday. They got to dress in their costumes. Too cute!! We went even though dad & Hazel weren't there. Dad stopped by but only long enough to say "hi" & take a picture. Of course this threw Matthew off. He refused to do anything. He stuck by my side the whole time...total opposite of what he did last time we went. It was rough on me because I also had to deal w/Luke. Usually dad & Hazel watch him while Matthew & I "play" but w/them not there, I had to "play" w/him too. There was only 1 of the usual grandmas & grandpas there & she had her hands full w/another lil' one.
Hard to believe Christmas is not far off. Sadly, we can't afford even a "meager" Christmas for the boys. I know they won't remember it BUT you never get to have your 1st Christmas ever again.
We were looking at letting our house go & rent a house instead. It's sad but we can rent a bigger place for way cheaper than our mortgages(& thats w/them both being modified). We stopped looking for a place after our little mortgage got modified. Thats also when the work slowed way down for Wayne as well. Plus we are still trying to get assistance from the Dept. of Labor in getting his last check from Aztil. It's been 2 months since he quit there & they refuse to release his check...cuz he left them "high & dry".
I'll post pics from Halloween in another blog.
