There are somedays I'm not sure if these kids are going to kill each other or I'm going to kill them first.

I know Bobby is only 4, and that is the peak (?) of ego, but I just want him to take the higher road and share! And include the little ones. And fat chance for a while. I feel like I'm losing the battle with him sometimes.

Jack will launch his food if he's done or doesn't like it. Had a good arm too. This freakin carpet is going to cost us a million bucks.

So I moved our upholstered chairs away from the bar/island b/c Jack was climbing from the coffee table to the chair to the countertop. But now he has managed to scale the tall and very tippy stools. He also loves ladders and rock walls at playgrounds and will make a non stop cycle up those and down slides. This does not help my socializing.

Jack will go hang at the front door as soon as he wakes up and pretty much several times a day. And cry and whine until we go outside. We compromise to the backyard. Sorry neighbors. 

I don't think Jack is ever going to sleep through the night. Whenever it gets good (i.e. only waking up twice, usually within 90 minutes of each other- 12:30/2) it will get bad and really bad again. I don't see any teeth and now he has a sniffle, but he is not sleeping well at all. I thought he was getting ready to go down to one nap, but I'm not so sure. Or maybe I'm not just willing to make it at 10am like he wants. A better nights sleep would help move that to after lunch.

Jack loves dogs. Jack loves Halloween decorations. Both of these things cause him to dart into the street as top speed. He will walk down the street and just make noises at the hanging ghosts and witches. He loves them.

Batman and Robin should have a good time this year. I have a feeling there will be a lot of superheroes on our street.
