This and That

Are we really almost half way through March?? I have been told time flies the older you get. I really think time flies twice as fast once you have children. So what is new with the Van Dams?

Scot has been itching to get out on the lake and go fishing. He has been busy the past few weeks getting his boat ready for fishing season 2011. Even though the economy has been rough, Scot has been blessed with work. The past few weeks Scot has been busy bidding on jobs and hopefully will be busy through the summer.
Skylar has 10 teeth. She has 8 in the front and two molars. Skylar loves to be chased around the house, especially when you are trying to get clothes on her. She loves to sit in her pink chair and read books. Skylar knows how to throw a temper tantrum already at 14 months. If she is upset she starts stomping her feet and screaming!! No one warned me that temper tantrums start as early as 14 months. Skylar is a really fussy eater. I know this is pay back for me being so picky. She loves goldfish and bananas and that is about it! Thankfully, the other day she ate a grilled cheese!!!

Alysha has 7 teeth. She has five in the front and two molars. She has been a momma's girl the past few weeks. Thankfully, Alysha is a GREAT eater!! She takes after her dad! Lately, Alysha starts blinking like crazy and closes her eyes when I want to take her picture. I have a feeling I may have taken too many pictures. She loves to take off her socks as soon as I put them on. The past few mornings she has been waking up with one arm out of her PJs. I am starting to think she rather be only in her diaper than have clothes on. I have been going a bit stir crazy the past few weeks. I am so ready for spring. I took the girls grocery shopping for the first time by myself. I pushed the double stroller and pulled my cart. It was a bit crazy and I don't think I will be doing that to often. I have decided that one of my goals for 2011 is to conquer making cheesecakes. Not real good for my diet but a fun challenge for myself. I will keep you posted on the progress. I have been enjoying doing play dates as well. This past week I was able to have my nephew, Eli, over for a few hours.
