Well it has been some time since I have blogged anything.  We've been very busy around here lately.  My work schedule has been all over the place, and I just haven't had the energy or time to write down my thoughts.

Enough of the excuses...here's some highlights about what has been going on in Kim World.

Mackenzie is learning to write her letters.  We started with the capital letter a.  She does a great job on the magnetic drawing board, but when it comes to the writing tablet, she just wants to draw pictures.  She needs to concentrate a little harder, but that will come with time.  She hasn't even turned 4 yet, so I guess just a little more patience and practice will be the flavor of the day for her.

Xander hasn't undressed himself in a while (which means less mess for mommy!), however, he has turned to biting and hitting now.  I know that most two-year-olds go through this biting phase, but he seems to be angry about something and I just don't know what it is.  The thing is he only bites his cousin who is the same age.  I don't know if it's a competition thing or what, but sooner or later his mother is going to tell me that she won't babysit for him anymore and then I'm up a creek.  Any suggestions on how to curb the biting and hitting would be welcomed.

Pat and I have terrible colds right now.  The kids seem to be getting over their colds, but ours just seem to be hanging on...

Tomorrow we are going to a Halloween costume party.  The theme this year is TV characters.  The kids are going as Dora the Explorer and Scooby Doo.  I'm still working on my costume - I keep vascillating on what I want to be.

Well, my house is a mess, so I better get to it.  I'll write more later.
