Hi all! Here's an update on what's going on in the Seidel household:
The month of Jan was a lil rough, Austin was sick with Croup (seal type cough) and we went to the ER because it but he got better after about a week or so. He just hung out on the couch most of the week. Kevin and I are finishing up our winter semester of school and so far we are doing good. Both of us have our final exams in our last two classes; Kevin's is today in Meteorology. Mine is in Art Appreciation and Algebra. Yuck!
Austin is getting bigger and bigger by each day! He's over 38 pounds and I need to measure him again but he was over 37 inches tall! He's very tall/big for his age group. He'll be 29 months so like 2.5 so for Kevin's brother's wedding he'll be right around 2 1/2 years old. Austin is suppose to do ring barer duty but we'll see how that goes. We are actually going to do Tux fittings today so I'll be snapping some pictures on that. I mean its just measurements so they may not even put anything on him. I don't know how he will act wearing a suit for the first time, plus a tie. As of right now Austin is obsessed with his alphabet, numbers and his little Mickey Mouse that he calls Mikey. :) He watches Curious George alot still so no change there. Hee, hee. I try to get him to do more craft like coloring and drawing. He's a wiz with my iphone! He can navigate on that thing better than most adults can! Austin is also a major sponge with learning and new words. He's putting more and more words together and making sentences. It's pretty cool to see how much he changes even with each day. He says some phrases that we say to him alot like, "Be careful." "Come on!" "Cat get down." :) He also says, "Mama (or) Dada, where are you?" And it's super cute, i need to try to get him to say it when I'm taping him. It's super adorable! He still gibbers with words though. So he'll be like gibber gibber cat gibber gibber cat, Ash. :) It's funny. But he is saying more real words than gibbering now so that's cool. This year I plan to get or maybe family can get *hint, wink* a Wii, one of those tumble preschool camera, and maybe if I can convince Kevin a pet fish for Austin. The Wii has a lot of preschool type games that he can play and we can play together. Oh plus a leapfrog Tag Jr. It's a big pen type deal that scrolls across a book and reads the words for him on these special type of books. Everyone that has it swears by them and says their kids love it.
I have a play date this Friday to host. I'm doing Valentine's day cookies for the kids to decorate. I've been getting some decorations together to put up so it's festive in here. Austin has a little girlfriend, Hannah and I hope she'll be able to come. She's been getting sick off and on. So he hasn't seen her as much. We were suppose to see them today but she got sick during the night. Well I need to get going, I have been having some sinus issues myself. It's just that time of the year I guess.
Oh to add, it snowed like mad crazy the night before. I think it was at least ten inches or so. It was a lot! And that fluffy thick snow too! Craziness!
