A first for a few things...

#1-Ethan bit his sister Aleah. I was in the kitchen doing something. Aleah was on the couch. Ethan was near the couch watching cartoons. All of a sudden Aleah starts screaming. I run over to see what is wrong and you could just see the guilt wash over Ethan's face. I demanded to know what he had done to his sister. He just put his hands over his face and pouted. He sat in time out for some time. Later when Evan came home from work he ran to greet him and said, "I bite Leah." AHHH... So then he sat in time out again. I told Aleah she will have her revenge when those teeth start coming in. #2Ethan also thinks it is necessary to yell at his sister when she poops or pees in her diaper. Ethan will say "UGH!!! WEAH(Aleah) Big trouble, you poop in the potty -K-" He is turning into a little bossy boss. #3-I played soccer for the first time! What was I thinking. My sister-n-laws team was short on players and asked me to play. After much asking and pleading I caved and said okay. I am not one for sports. I like to play I am just not good ... at all! I felt like Sandra Bullock on Ms. Congeniality. I could not keep my feet on the ground. I kept tripping on my own feet....it was quit the embarrassment but none the less a great work out. Oh and did I mention I yelled at an old lady on the opposing team for taking me out by tripping me. I am very sore today but would play again if asked. #4- Helped Jeff and Brianne (Evans brother and his wife) move to California. I am so sad to see them go. I HATE that they have to leave . I am glad Jeff was able to get a good job but we will miss them all too much. Especially Ethan him and Rilynn are best buddies. I have already had to tell him that they are living far away now, and he doesn't get it. I hope that they can visit often or that we can go see them someday. Good luck to them with the move and there new little chapter they are opening up in CA.

Aw, what a little stinker!! They just seem to need to get it out of their system once, and then they won't bite again. At least that's how Brooklyn has been. Now Troy bites all of US! So Aleah WILL get Ethan back...eventually. :) How fun you played soccer! I'm sure you were wonderful! That's sad and great they moved. I'm sure they'll be very missed!!
