One more day til Anthony's b-day

Anthony's birthday is tomorrow. I can't believe he'll be 6. He's had some trouble in school but since he got assigned to a new teacher last week he is doing much better. He's been getting good notes all week. Right now he's playing his new Mario golf video game. We're taking him bowling for his birthday and I'm making him a chocolate cake with vanilla green icing. Green is still his favorite color. It has been ever since he was old enough to say it. We took him out to spend his birthday gift cards. Last night we went to Toys R Us and he got a car track that floats is water and a color changing car. Today he went to Walmart and got new fish for the tank. We got him Alvin and the Chipmunks 2, two video games, and some other small presents.

Emily is a crawling super fast. She can walk while holding on to the table or couch. Today she stood for about a min, took one step and then fell down. She's not sleeping thru the night yet, but does sometimes and on the nights she wakes up, she does only once. She's not quite the light sleeper she was when she was an infant but I still try not to exhale when I walk past her door. She says Dada mostly. Occasionally she will say mama. And the other day I took her to the grocery store and I swear she said "junk".  I don't know if that meant buy junk or no junk but she said it several times and laughed hysterically.

I am one lucky mommy. Life is much busier with two kids but I'd say it's well worth it. Nights with out them are quieter but also lonely. I love you guys with all my heart and cheese.
