Flash forward to today...


It has been forever since I have updated my blog, I guess it is safe to say that I am not very good at this...This is an update of our lives:


We are still living at my parents and are beginning to look for other housing now that we are finished with our apartment in The Woodlands. We are ready to have our own space but will miss seeing Noni and Pop Pop everyday.

Kai is almost 2 1/2 and loves letters, he can name them all by sight and can say there sounds. He is still into Thomas the Train and is beginning to love playing ball. He likes to go with Zeb to play basketball and softball. We are really enjoying this age, he asks lots of questions and understands more and more each day. A few days ago he broke a key on our keyboard and while Zeb was trying to fix it Kai was singing "Bob the Builder, can we fix it...Bob the Builder, yes we can." The majority of his day he is either singing or jumping which keeps us on our toes! He is such a joy to be around!!

Jax is just a little over 6 months and is still huge (well huge compared to Kai)! He has started eating baby foods and loves to eat. He can sit up very well and is beginning to show interest in moving around. I don't know if I am ready to have two mobile children so I am hoping he is a little slower to learn how to crawl than Kai (he crawled at 6 months). He is a baby with many faces...you can't get two pictures the same of Jax. We often call him "Old man Bricker" b/c he sucks his lips in making him look like an old man with no teeth. Jax poops on the potty! For a while we were worried because Jax wasn't going to the restroom often enough and we could hear him trying to hold it in instead of just pushing it out, so one day I decided to just sit him on the toilet and low and behold he went! Strange but true, now he will only go on the toilet which is annoying right now but hopefully will be an advantage in the long run. He is such a sweet baby!

Well since I haven't written in a while I could probably go on and on but these are just a few updates for now...I hope I can be better at posting in the future!
