Catch up!

Finally have internet up and running in the house again! it was horrible not having access. I did break down once and take my laptop to the library to check emails. Dan was at the doctor's so I had to take Victoria. Luckily I remembered to bring some juice and some pretzels! We hung in the teen room and she was running all over the place. She had so much fun. She was using the pretzel sticks as pencils and pretending to write on everything.
Victoria's big birthday gift was this (she can't reach the pedals yet):

She also loves this (the elephant shoots butterflies out of his trunk and they try to catch them):

Grampy and Grammy sent her this Dora princess doll and she LOVES it:

Auntie sent a book and pooh clothes that she LOVES!!

Nana came back from her summer up north and both kids were so excited!! We met up in Target (where else?)and then went back to our house for dinner and football. Danny has already talked nana into sleeping at her house twice now. He is there tonight and had so much fun packing his bag. Victoria thinks they are shopping!
Danny showing off his karate uniform:

Danny's class had a field trip to a pumkin patch and we all went. It was so much fun.
Here is his class:

Victoria did not know what to do with all the pumpkins (except try to kiss them all):

One naptime last week Victoria was making way more noise than usual. She usually goes right to sleep once she drinks her milk in her cup. We heard banging so I went upstairs after 30 minutes and found her sitting on the floor outside her crib with all her toys and bedding beside her! First time she has ever gotten out of it. I asked her if she wanted to sleep in her big girl bed and she said yes. I put her pillow and blanket on her princess toddler bed and she was asleep within 5 minutes. She has slept there ever since! Sniff! Sniff! our baby is growing up! Danny was more excited than she was:)

Everything is about princess for her, she also tries to dress herself (but can't get her tutu over her butte)


Danny also started speech, occupational and physical therapy at the public school. We have to drive him there twice a week. His classes are made up of both public and private school kids and he really enjoys it. His speech teacher said his speech is actually very good and she is mostly working on his language and sequencing. The pt had him on a trampoline singing his abc's! We just can not believe the difference in him in only 2 months! He is actually sounding out words :)

I am getting genetic testing done next week to see if I carry the breast cancer gene. It takes about a month to get the results in. If I carry it my sisters will get themselves tested :(
I see the orthopedic spine specialist in 2 1/2 weeks. Hopefully it will be a simple fix :)
Mom and I are going to the symphony next week to see Abbamania and I can not wait!!
First adult night out in I don't know how long :) :)
