First things first...Brewer has been tagged!
Five Things we love about our Michael Brewer!
1~ The fact that he is all boy!! Brewer loves looking for bugs, playing with swords, wrestling, big trucks and construction equipment.
2~ Even though he is all boy he still plays with his little sister. Sometimes I have to remind him that she is just a baby. Like when he buries her in a blanket and hides from her while she's screaming because she can't get out or when he wants to wrestle with her. Yesh!! :) We love him though for being so willing to include her.
3~He is soooooooo social. So much so that we have a hard time keeping him with us during sacrament meeting. Brewer just loves everybody. He thinks everyone is his friend and he has no problem walking up to a complete stranger and saying"want to play wif me".
4~We love that sometimes he just wants to snuggle. At least once a day (especially now that it's getting cold) he walks up to me with a blanket and says "I wanna snuggle you". Talk about heart melting. It doesn't matter what kind of mood I'm in or wha tI'm doing that always gets me!
5~ We love how SMART he is! He picks up everything that goes on around him. He already knows all of his ABCs and most of the sounds they make. He knows his vowels, that they make 2 sounds and when they make those sounds. It's not uncommon to hear him sing "when to vowels go walking, the first one does the talking, O and A say O as in boat and goat." I am in so much trouble!!! But we love it.
Brewer is definitely a challenge but he has taught me so much about myself and the world around me. He has made me a better person in his short 2 and 1/2 years. We love him so much!

On another note....Roxi's birthday was the 3rd. I know I'm running WAY behind but life is crazy! We're trying to find both a second job for Ben (the Army didn't work out) and an apartment. While we apply to the Border Patrol and get ready for the holidays. (Yeah!!! That's my life, but I love it) Our little Roxi girl has all but shed her preemie days and is quite the little go getter! She is walking pretty well now and has 3 times the teeth that Brewer did at her age. She is very opinionated and isn't shy about letting you know. Especially when it comes to strangers. Unlike our little Brew, Roxi hates strangers and has already perfected her "touch me and I'll scream" look. It's actually kind of cute. She loves her Mama and we are like two peas in a pod!
I hope that everything is going well with all of you! I know I don't keep in touch as well as I should and I'm sorry. It's something I'm hoping to work on when I get my head above water! :)
