I have noticed more and more the last couple of weeks that Jackson has been tricking Brady out of what Brady was doing. Brady will usually fall for it until he realizes after the fact that Jax has what he was playing with. Brady will scream bloody murder and Jax will start laughing.
They have been wrestling more and more, I find it very entertaining and I am glad that they learned by watching me wrestle matt. The moves that they come up with are great. Both boys like the head smach where they roll on top of each other trying to smash the others face and or head. Jax can still get the upper hand over Brady but they usually will giggle until one of them gets hurt. Knock on wood, nothing too serious has happened to them.
Jax loves going to school and to church. When we put him down for bed tonight, he got excited when Ang told him that he is going to school tomorrow. He has a friend named Brett at school now and was kinda upset that he was not at school on Friday. Mrs Morgan said that he kept on looking for Brettt at school.
I played the drums for the first time at Church this weekend. Jax and Ang watched me on Saturday night. I could kind of see Jax standing in the aisle clapping and dancing at points. Ang said that he climbed back onto his chair so he could drum. The lights were so bright on stage that I could get glimpses of him off and on. Saturday night service did not go very well but we were able to practice again on Sunday morning and get things straightened out. It felt amazing to be able to play with a band again and worship at the same time.
B has been talking about me cutting the grass as much as Jax does. I now get asked if I am going to cut the grass 20 times instead of 10. It is funny to hear B say grass. He is missing most of the g and r of grass but you can tell what he is saying.
Hopefully I can keep up with this blog more but most of my time on the computer is spent on MSU or Pennfield work.

Brady vs. the screen
This is what happens when you are a screen and you mess with Brady. This took him no longer than 5 seconds to do.

Random update
Like any other family in the world, we have been non-stop busy. Ang is watching Harrison, Jax is starting preschool, and Brady gets made when you give him orange milk (I will explain later). My master classes and not having a textbook fills most of my waking hours when I am not with the boys. We have been trying to give mom a break when I get home so I will take the boys outside for a walk or to play some kick. Jax is getting pretty good at dribbling and kicking the soccer ball. Brady has been playing with the NFL size football, he tries to throw the ball on the roof or over one of the trees. Ocassionally B will hit himself in the head with the ball and laugh about it. We walked yesterady and stopped and played with Chelsea and all of her new and cool (to the boys) toys while mom got some groceries and started dinner. They loved the battery operated tractor and four wheeler, both boys tried them and had fun.
Last weekend, we went to Grandma Thel's 90th birthday party. The boys had a blast even though they went to bed late the night before. We went to the Pennfield football game where they danced with Gracie while the band played. The boys loved her and followed her all night long. When she left, Brady ran after her and tried to leave with her and John. I was able to wrestle (destroy) Matt on Saturday. It was as much fun as it use to be, and the boys found it amusing as well. Jax was asking mom what I was doing then he said I was being silly. Brady and Ike liked what they saw and started to wrestle each other. I have a feeling that is going to be happening for many years to come. Brady has been trying to wrestle Jax at home which mom is getting sick of seeing. B and Jax have both hit their heads on the ground from wrestling each other.
It was nice to see Aunt Jimmy, and Tracie at the party as well. Danny was there and it is funny to see him all grown up and he said the same thing about me. He told me it was funny to see me with kids.
We have Jackson's school drama figured out finally. Where he was supposed to be going, the school only had one boy to ten girls. If it was high school i would not mind having him go there, but that ratio would probably be good for his development at such a young age. He is going to the co-op in the afternoon. Next year when B turns three, he will be able to go to the same school as Jax which will help us out a lot.
No bites on the house yet. We need to keep in mind that there are hundreds of houses for sale that are similiar to ours. It is going to take some time.

Birthday Parties and School
Once again it has been too long since I have updated this… Hopefully I can remember everything that has been happening.
Brady’s birthday party worked out great, the boys behaved as well as expected. Jackson sure is a party boy, he had so much fun running around acting like a wild man. It reminds me of when I went to my cousin Tyler’s birthday party and how crazy that was. Brady got a lot of good gifts and he had some good cake. Ang made the cakes the night before when Jackson was sleeping and as soon as he woke up he was talking about the cakes and how bad he wanted to eat them until he went to bed. He even woke up on Sunday and was talking about the same thing.
Jackson is starting his first day of preschool tomorrow and I cannot believe that he is old enough to be going to school. I do not like that he is getting old so fast. It is amazing how fast life is going with him and the boys. Every time I turn around one of them is doing something that I think they are too young to be doing. Ang got his backpack ready tonight with extra clothes and his name on it. He still does not seem to like the idea of going. We have talked about going and how fun it is going to be but he still is not sure. Taking him to church and getting him comfortable there is going to help him a lot.
Ang has been watching Harrison this week. The boys all seem to love being with each other and playing/showing Harrison what he should be doing. Jax and B seem to take turns helping Ang. Brady was all smiles when he helped hold the bottle for Harrison today. It is amazing how happy and easy going Harrison seems to be.
B has been peeing on the potty already. He has been acting like he was peeing in the potty for a month or two. He was walking up to the toilet, sticking his belly out, and lifting up his shirt. He would them try to flush the toilet five time as well. He usually laughs when he pees and pees numerous times. He has gone pee on the floor numerous times, ANg once, and who knows what else.
When Sarah came in today to drop off Harrison she was talking quietly to Ang and I in the kitchen. Harrison was cooing a little and getting excited to see Ang when we heard something come from Jackson’s room. “ STOP WAKING ME UP!!!” All of us laughed very hard when we heard that, then a minute later he yelled “STOP TALKING SO LOUD!!” Once again we all lost it and off we went to school.
Another funny event happened yesterday, Jax and B have been obsessed with dinosaurs lately. We went to the library to get books about them; Jax was asking questions about them so we thought some books on them would do him some good. Well Jex yesterday was growling and we heard Brady giggling so we decided to investigate, that combination usually means that someone or something is about to get damaged or defaced. Jax was walking next to Brady while B was crawling on the ground. Jax was trying to pull off B’s head while grunting and giggling. Ang told him not to and asked why he was doing that and his reply was priceless, “Because that is what Croc’s do.” It was hard to argue with that kind of logic so we let them do it a little longer until it got old for them.
Once again, if I forgot anything please let me know and I will add to this or create a new post. Sorry if this is confusing, I wanted to get some things down before I forgot them and did not proof read this.
