Halloween and all things Fun

Pickle is here to say hi and tell you what has been going on lately. We are all just recovering from getting the swine flu. What an exciting week. EMT's , fevers of almost 106, breathing treatments, convulsions, and dehydration. Way too much fun for us, we have decided to not do that again anytime soon.

This week we have decided to clean the house, get ready for baby girl due in about 4 weeks, and play outside when the weather allows it to. Today I even squeezed a little christmas shopping in with Pickle before Veronica got home from school. The colors are changing on the trees and this week the leaves have even begun to fall.
Patrick has begun to read, is pretty good at numbers and has tied his shoes one time by himself. We are slowly getting to where we need to be. He was just accepted into the speech program at school. We are waiting for the results to start showing, it could really be towards the end of the school year that we see what we want to. Patrick is getting excited about holding another baby and getting to cuddle and love her. He is such a sweetheart and so tall. He is already up past my armpits in height.
Sean is busy being busy. He is constantly on the move and never slows down. I swear he walks in his sleep too. He has begun to start reading and doing simple math. He has also really connected with some of his classmates and is excited to play with them when he can. His favorite activity right now is legos. He has quite the imagination.

As for the baby I really think he could care less at this point. He has a difficult time already just dealing with Pickle and Veronica haha.
veronica is in school 5 days a week every morning. She loves it so much that she is the first one up at about 630 in the morning. She has a little attitude but it really shows that she is a strong willed little girl. She is getting really good at drawing things and has started writing her letters and saying their sounds. :) What a big girl.

Well need to head off if I am going to be up with this little girl in the morning. Love to all!
