Well it's December and the last two months had flown by. Matty was Spideman and Andrew of Scobby-Doo for Halloween. Although it was a really wet one the boys had a blast and ate more candy then I would have liked :)
November was great we were fortunate enough to spend the long week at a friend's cabin which the kids loved. However we have discovered our children do no like whinedy roads, I think that says it all.
Now we're into December and gearing up for the visit from Santa. They haven't quiet figured it out yet but it's starting to get there.
I will say the last couple of weeks have been really nice. The boys play together most of the time which is making it easier to get most of the stuff around the house done. Matty is really enjoying soccer and has passed his first level of swimming lesson. Andrew starts his swimming lessons in February.
Well I could go on on but I have to go and make the lunches for tomorrow.

Holy Crap it's Almost September
Well the summer has flown by! Things are quite busy with two kids running around.
Matty is quite excited to be going back to pre-school, all although he keeps saying he's going to big kid school and that he's 5. He also starts soccer and swimming in September which he is also really looking forward to.
Andrew, well his everywhere walk/running, climbing things he shouldn't. 1st words Dada, uh-oh, all done, milk....but no mama as usual it will be last.
Well I have take this last weekend in August off to hang with the boys. Spending some time at the beach, PNE and whatever else comes our way.

Well June as arrived and with that comes a walker....that's right Andrew is walking all over the place I believe he may even start running soon. Matty is doing great and says the funniest things. He is always trying to convince John and I that he has show and tell everyday. Last Sunday he got up at 7:30am got dressed and announced that he was ready for daycare....too funny.
Well the family vacation is three weeks away and John has taken on the RV to get it ready for our trip. Matty loves to get in there and help but we mainly get him to sit there and watch.
Well hope to get some pictures up in the next couple of days.

I have no idea where March and April went but I now find myself in May!!! I'm back to work now so life has thrown a few curve balls my way but I'm slowly adjusting to a new schedule and juggling act that is a working mom's world.
We celebrated Andrew's 1st Birthday...he seemed to have a great time although he wasn't a fan of the cupcake...I believe he prefers chocolate.
As we seem to be speeding through May the family is looking forward to our trip down to Silverwood in June/July.
We will be signing Matty up for soccer this year which will start in September....he loves to play with John and we have even invested in a mini soccer net.
Hope to keep the blog up and going about the adventures of the Cornell Clan.

February has flown by!
Wow February has flown by so fast!
Matty turned 3 February 1st and was spoiled routine from the family. We didn't have a party for him this year. Instead we opted for just having the twins over and a nice little dinner with cake afterwards. Matty has now struck an independent streak with everything from brushing his teeth to trying to pour his own milk awesome but frustrating at the same time. We have tried to be as patience as possible and allow him to do many things on his own but when your trying to get out the door it can be a battle.
Andrew is now a man on the move and darn fast one minute his playing with his toys the next his in the planters. He is growing up so fast it sometime takes me a minute to realize that he's almost 1yr old where has the time gone.
I'll be going back to work starting April 1st which is only a month away. The boys will be going into daycare so it'll be an adjustment for everyone. I hope to keep up the blog even when I'm back at work.

Good Bye 2011
Well November flew by and December has come and gone. The boys are growing so fast. Andrew is now 7 1/2 months and so close to crawling. He has been attempting to pull himself up the last couple of days before I know it he'll be crawling/running around after Matthew. Matthew has made huge steps in the potty training department and I believe that by the time he starts school again he will be completely out of diapers.
Matty had his first Christmas concert at school which was so cute to watch. They sang a number of songs which Matty attempted to sing about half of them and helped me to understand why he kept saying Kaa-choo....he was practising one of his songs.
Christmas was great we had two wonderful family dinners and finally got to meet my newest cousin Sinead who is only a month younger then Andrew. Those two took quite a liking to each other which was so cute to watch them interact. It was also great because Matty is finally understanding the Santa thing which was cute because leading up to Christmas he kept saying Santa coming to town and bringing present for him, baby (Andrew), Daddy and Mommy.
So were wishing everyone a very Happy New Year and a wonderful 2012!
