Happy New Year! We just watched movies and at like 12:05 noticed it was new year, so not a big deal for us. Jackson is already in his terrible twos. He is always into things and he is getting too brave. This is how he was the other day. I kicked the giraffe away and he freaked out. He went and got it and put it back. His plan was to jump off the couch onto it. We tried to stop him, but he got mad, so we figured he would figure out on his own that may not be the smartest thing. He didn't have enough guts to jump. 

 Brad loves to make fried rice and he said he wanted a wok to make it... so I got him one for Christmas and he made some on Sunday. It was really good and it's one of Jacks favorite foods. He had two helpings then we took him down from his seat. Apparently he wasn't done and wanted more. We just gave him all of the leftovers. He didn't eat all of it, but he was excited to have so much rice. 

 This is a prime example of Jacks terrible twos starting. Brad has his ties hanging in our closet and Jacks likes to play with them. Usually it's just one tie, but the other day he took all of them down and put all of them on. We didn't put any of these on him. He came out very proud of himself. 

One 'joy' of 6 year olds is they repeat things they hear, and make up new things too. Tonight we were driving in the car and the kids were being really loud. Brad and I said to be quiet and Beck said "Yeah, shut your ball." Really I don't know where he got that from, we NEVER say that, but he just said it like it was nothing. Cam had to quickly prove him wrong and said you can't because your balls are right here (showing him too where they were.) Really twin boys can be quite interesting at times. I'm not ready for teenagers, good thing we have a few years.
