Bragfest

This post will be dedicated to a bragfest about my kids.

Big J:

Finished his session of swimming and can go underwater without holding his nose.

Passed his belt test in karate.

Got hit by a boy at a playdate, and didn't hit back.

Wrote "I love you Mommy" on the magnadoodle and I wish I could save it forever.

Can recite parts of some books from memory, but is especially cute when he "reads" to his brother.

Went five days without a major meltdown.

Little J:

Has gained 3 pounds in 3 months.

Is saying new words like crazy. Most recently, grampy, sorry, and hat.

Figured out 3 pieces of a puzzle without help.

Wanted to use the dustbuster, and did a pretty decent job cleaning up his cheerios.

Is learning to be gentle with our kitty.

Did the low balance beam at gymnastics all by himself.

Does the motions to "wheels on the bus." It is adorable, by the way.
