We're almost packed


When we went and looked at our new suite, there was a boy who was currently living there that Sam made friends with. Later I was explaining to Sam that once again we were going to be moving and that the suite we went and looked at was going to be our new home. He now is under the impression that we are moving to that "boy's home". Sam thinks that the boy will still be living there and all of the boy's Thomas toys will be there too. You see, the boy had Thomas bedding and any Thomas toy you could imagine all in his room that now will be Sam's room. Sam is soooo excited but I keep telling him that the boy is moving and he won't be living with us. So we'll have to see how Sam reacts when he gets there to see an empty room. Sam has packed all of his toys and other things from his room in boxes. Then he gets a pen and "writes" on the box. He has been quite the little helper to Justin and me.
Mattias is becoming more and more a baby with some personality and some chub on him. I have to clean between the roles around his neck and on his legs and lube him up with lotion. The best way to describe his wrists is that they look like there are tight elastics around them with his skin/fat bulging over. It is so cute! He is cooing and giggling all of the time. And diaper changes have gone from Mattias screaming and holding his breath to constant smiles and "agoo's"! If he is fussy, we take him upstairs and take off his diaper and out come the grins. Last night when I was on my way to bed I stopped in Sam's room and Mattias' room for one last look until morning and couldn't help but smile with tears in my eyes. They each are so cute and bring us and all who come in contact with them such great JOY! I am so thankful for my two beautiful boys that God has blessed me (us) with. Just looking at them sure makes this "mother" thing a whole lot easier. It reminds me to not sweat the small stuff. Like Sam wanting to help me make lunch. He opened the fridge and grabbed a bowl of pudding but dropped it and splattered pudding all over himself, the wall and the fridge and floor I just cleaned. I have to remind myself that he was just trying to help!
