I wanted to try to make this blog cuter, but it wasn't working with this format. So, I started a new one. Here is the address: http://fourjinglebells.blogspot.com/ I know, not that creative, but oh well. Hope to see you there.

Life with the Bells
Things are pretty lame here on the Bell blog. Sorry. Having two kids is a lot more work than I thought!=) But it is great. Things are going really well. Hailey has really become a big girl in this transition. She loves to hug (half lay on) Spencer and kiss him. If she can't see him first thing in the morning, she gets all upset. I don't think he will have to worry about getting beat up with Hailey around. She can do the whole potty thing by herself, including washing hands and all that. She loves the Halloween foamy soap we got her! She has been saying lots of funny things, but one of my favorites is "Mom, I want to buy this (a bear shaped cake) and share it with you." Isn't that nice?! She loves reading and after once or twice reading a book, she remembers most of it. And she loves John Meyer right now, her favorite song is "Broken Heart". I think we listened to it ten times in the car one day. And I caught her singing the Justin Timberlake song "Summer Love", except she was singing "Some more love". It has been very entertaining to watch her personality grow. She loves dancing and somersaults and is always saying "mom I am crazy!" She really wants to go to school, so when she is three we're going to find her a preschool class. And she has begun a life of crime.....We were at Albertson's the other day and I let her ride in the cart where the kid can steer and stuff (you know, the really dirty ones.ew). She was being so good, it was great. Then we get out to the car and I go to help her out and she had taken a thing of bubble tape. So, we talked about it and took it back to the store. She was being so quiet, I asked her what was wrong and she totally started crying so bad. I felt so bad for her! But I guess she recognized it was wrong.
Spencer is growing VERY well. He has super long legs and long toes to match them. He has been doing little half smiles aka gas, but we take what we can get. He has been a really good baby so far and doesn't keep us up too much at night. It is great to have him around. He makes life so much fun for us and has helped us to slow down and kind of take a break. He has what is called "noisy breathing". So pretty much, he always sounds congested, but it is supposed to go away by 6--8 weeks. Poor guy, can hardly take a binky because he can't breathe through his nose with his binky in. Oh well, I am sure I will be sad about it later when he is screaming his head off at the grocery store.
Blake is liking his new job delivering serves for Paradigm Attorney Services. No, he hasn't gotten shot at or anything, just locked himself out of the car three times. We are glad he is working there. It has been alot less stressful than his other job and pays better. He works from 1 pm to 9 pm, so we get to see him in the morning and take him out with us on errands. He is also doing his computer repairs and building on the side and loves that. And school too. It is busy, but he has a great attitude and still manages to help out with the kids and house and stuff. He is also the second counselor in the elder's quorom as of two weeks ago.
I am being mom. I might start tutoring again in a few weeks, just to help out and stuff. But we'll see. I am happy and glad to have my family. This is starting to drag on. Sorry. And our picture software is all funky, so no pictures for now. We have about 400 on our camera, so you'll see a bunch soon!
