time is flying by...

Can't believe that the summer is almost over- it is just starting to get hot! We have been super busy this summer and it does not look like the fall is going to let up. Before I know it I will need to start xmas shopping _ YIKES- So updates, well this week Aaron will be 10 months, he is all about food he will still eat his baby food though he loves big boy food. He eats anything from beef, turkey meat to chicken, all veggeis and fruits he likes cake which we have had at a few birthday parites and he had a donut today! He is cruising and standing- I think he will be walking before Erica who was walking at 13 months. He has great Giggles like his big sister! He is getting his top two teeth in now which are causing some pain though overall he is a happy baby! I cant beleive I have to start planning his first bday soon. Erica is doing awesome too, she loves to read she will sit on her chair and read her books on her own, she likes to do flashcards - of course me telling her what is on them. She does all kinds of building with her blocks or tea party play. She loves pushing her baby in the swing or pushing in the stroller. Aaron is just trying to keep up with Erica.
As for Jimmy and I we are trying to keep the kids under control most of the time. It is great when we see them playing together for a few short minutes where Erica is not ripping a toy out of Aarons hands! A glimpse into maybe the next year where they will begin to play together better. I have done 3 triathlons this summer - my first summer doing them I have one left on 8-31-09 will be in chicago, then I need a break from cardio- maybe do more pilates or weights- my legs are killing me! will try to update with pics next time
