Well, hello there!

Well, it's been a while. We've been busy around here at the Martineau house. I started babysitting a 3 month-old baby named Jack. It's been kind of hard, mainly for Mia who does NOT LIKE SHARING mommy! Boy does she have a temper.
She has started walking almost exclusively, except outside which is unfortunate as she has turned into a ball of mud. But she is doing well and "Mooomyyyy!" is her new, favorite thing to say/whine. Sheesh....
Vince is doing well. He's a big help to mommy while I take care of Jack and Mia and has called Jack his brother. He loves him to death and calls him "Jackie!" So cute....
Two cute things he's said lately have been about daddy. On Monday this week at dinner, he ran over to Gabe and said "Thanks for coming home Daddy!!!" and gave him a big kiss. The next night when daddy wasn't home for dinner he said "Hmmm... somefings missing......" After he said it again I finally asked what. He said "Daddy's missing!" Kinda broke my heart a little. Made him call dad and tell him that one. Of course Gabe thought I told him to say both things although I actually had not! Kids DO say the darnedest things. Went to see Grammy and Grampy and the rest of the gang last weekend and after leaving Uncle Paul's house and my parents house he said "That was fun!" They both are such joyful children and bring so much more to our lives. Most of the time anyway!
Wrestling with Daddy!

13 months!

That's one of her instruments and the only 13 month pic I could get of her sitting


Feeding herself- think she got about 2 drops!


But she wants to be a BIG girl!
