The Moose had his four month check up today. He is growing like a weed - in fact, he's the fattest baby we've had. On the percentiles, he is at the 50th for weight and the 75th for height. Those numbers are not adjusted for his premie status, so he's really catching up quickly. Way to grow Seamus!
Jack and Bobby both went back to school today after the Christmas break. Thank goodness! I think we were all ready to get back into a routine. We did have a very nice Christmas though.
Christmas Eve was celebrated with all of the Paradises at my mom's house. Scott even flew in from San Diego, so it was nice to have the whole gang in one place. Bobby and his little cousin Piera (Mitch's daughter) got a kick out of turning the Christmas tins into their personal drum set. It was a hoot!
The big gift for the boys was a Wii. Jack is a Wii bowling junkie. In fact his player rating has climbed higher than Mark's. He's even decided he wants a bowling party for his sixth birthday next month.
My Mom reminded me recently what a great catch Mark is - two jobs (Wells Fargo and radio), still supports me when needed in real estate, taking classes at CMU to finish his degree, coaches Jack's basketball team, spends quality time with Bobby, and takes turns getting up with Seamus. I think I've decided to hang onto this guy!
The real estate business is off to a great start this year, with three closings currently scheduled for January. We are lucky to live and work in Dallas.
Hope you all are well too - send us your updates!
