<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Halloween is my second favorite holiday next to Christmas. This year, I really couldn't get excited about Halloween because I have morning sickness ALL DAY and NIGHT. It's pretty miserable. But enough about me. </span><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cohen became slightly obsessed with Jack Skellington after watching The Nightmare Before Christmas one time. He wanted a Jack Skellington Jack-o-Lantern and he wanted to be a skeleton for Halloween. Easy enough. So I bought some long underwear. Cut out bones from felt (from this <a href="http://www.finleyandoliver.com/2012/09/diy-skeleton-costume.html" target="_blank">template</a>), and hand stitched them on. Ben already had skeleton pajamas. </span><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We went trick-or-treating around our new neighborhood for the first time. The boys loved it.</span></div>

Not yet terrible. Just two. He's an easy-going kid. Always smiling, unless he's having a shy moment...and then he gets a super grump face. He loves cars, pirates, and hotdogs. He's cuddly, and sweet. He thinks his big brother is pretty cool. We watch them playing sometimes and Ben copies <em>everything</em> Cohen does and says. I love this kid.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My sweet boy is turning into a big kid. It seems like overnight he has turned into this perfect four year old. Who brushes his teeth when I ask him to, and gets himself ready for bed. I thought that day would never come. He has grown up a lot this past year. He asks a lot of questions now. And has to know why everything is the way it is. He's a sensitive soul, like his dad. </span><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A recent example of this happened the other day while we were driving he asked me:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> C: "Where do dinosaurs live?"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Me: Dinosaurs don't live anymore, they died a loonnng time ago.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">C: (Bursts out in real tears) "I don't want them to DIE!"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Me: Well, they're not <em>really</em> dead, they are alive in Heaven with Grandpa.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">C: (Stops crying immediately) "Oh."</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">AND THAT WAS THE END OF THAT.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">I Love my boy Cohen. He's a very special kid and I'm so lucky to be his mom.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This year, we are going to Disneyland for Cohen/Ben's Birthdays. So we just had a very simple birthday for him on the 15th. Chuck-e-Cheese with his friend Connor during the day, and a Donut Cake (his request) and presents at night.</span> </div>

<span style="font-family: Arial;">I miss having TIME to blog regularly. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Redecorating, Pinterest, and being a Mom has taken over my life. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Usually my life is not <em>too</em> exciting, so when I take four months off it's rather easy to play catch up,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">BUT, these past 4 months have actually been very eventful for the Demke household. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Lots of vacations, visiting family/friends, and going to the beach. fun fun.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Here's our summer in a pictures. (Minus the home updates). Those will be blogged later.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Lots and lots of pictures and not a lot of reading..I'm too lazy to type.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The plants probably <em>looked</em> too small because they <em>were</em> too small. But we can't afford big expensive plants. So that's what we get. Someday it would have looked lush and pretty. But I'm impatient when it comes to home improvements. So, as usual, I obsessed about it for a few days and spent long nights thinking about ways to make it look better. </span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I think I found the solution!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">We traded out the tiny Pygmy Date Palm for with a small King Palm. King Palms grow much taller then a PDPalm, but it was cheaper than buying a bigger PDPalm. We also bought New Zealand flax and African Lilies to line that not-so-pretty wall. Hopefully those will grow fast. Here is what it looks like now. Still small, but not quite so bare.</span><br />

We attempted to go to the funeral in Utah, but (to make a long story short) Cohen had asthma issues so we had to turn around in Las Vegas. That was fun. Here is the Funeral Flashmob that took place at her funeral. I love it so much I had to put it on the blog. I wish we could've seen it in person.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;">5 YEARS!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, it's been five years since we got married for time and eternity.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still VERY happy with my decision. Andy is a good husband.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were very happy and in love on our wedding day, and I'm proud to say that we are even <em>happier</em>, and <em>more</em> in love today... ew. stop being all annoying and mushy jenny. okay. I'll stop.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had no idea that 5 years after this picture was taken I'd be writing this blog with our <em>two</em> boys sleeping on the sofa next to me in our <em>new</em> house. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I feel like these five years have been our major adjustment period.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know that we will need to adjust our whole life, but I think the majority of our adjusting just happened. We got married, 3 months later we moved to Vista, bought a condo, had 2 kids, sold condo, and bought our first house. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now we are in parenthood survival mode, and we are constantly trying to find new ways to keep parenthood from dragging us down. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lately, my Garnier Dark Circle Corrector and doing our nightly DVR marathon (after the kids are asleep) seems to be doing the trick. It's our free date night. I'll pop a bag of popcorn with m&ms, Andy will grab a cold glass of water, and we will plop our tired butts in front of that tv for a good hour or two. It's great.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We bought our first house. More importantly, we bought our first yard. For the kids. There is nothing fancy about this house. First off, it's pink. And it has a gravel front/back yard. Not exactly what I imagined my dream home would be. Everything in it is origional 1988. Except for the garbage disposal.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> When my realtor told us it was coming up on the market we did a drive-by and told her we were not interested. The neighborhood was nice, but the house was just too ugly. And then we went to the beach. All during the beach trip all I could think about was that ugly pink house with the pink gravel front yard. So we had Suzanne show us the house that night. We loved all of the windows, the layout, and the size of the yard. It felt perfect for us. So we put in an offer, and got it the next day! Funny how things work out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now we are in decorating heaven. Daydreaming about home renovations. All. day. long. </span><br />

It's <em>almost </em>sold. We accepted a good offer on it a little over a week ago. Very exciting. We had 5 offers total. It only took 3 weeks to sell! 6 weeks ago we weren't even <em>considering</em> selling our condo. Now it's sold. And we still have no idea where we will be living in 3 weeks. We have some ideas, but nothing is set in stone. This is the most exciting thing that has happened to our family since Ben was born. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm going to miss this condo. We lived here exactly 4 years. This is Cohen and Ben's first home. We have a lot of sweet memories here. But we feel its a good time to buy a <em>new</em> house to fix up and make <em>new </em>memories in. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> We met the people who bought our condo last week. Super nice family. Who LOVE everything about it. That makes me happy.</span><br />

Never ending really.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Cohen had a preschool Halloween party. Then we went to a family pumpkin carving party.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Then the Trunk-or-Treat. And finally Trick-or-Treating on Halloween. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">On top of all that, Cohen has been dressing up almost <em>everyday</em>. Sometimes he's a dinosaur cowboy, then a superhero, he even tried to put on Ben's tiger costume...but most of the time he's a pirate. I tried to convince him to wear some of his other costumes for the parties, but it didn't work. He loves pirates. That is why we took him to the "Pirates Cove" to go Trick-or-Treating. <span style="font-size: x-small;">(Its just a fun neighborhood that goes all out with the pirate theme).</span> </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Its like Disneyland.

I can't even believe it.</span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"> Last year at this time I was sitting in a hospital. Ben was sleeping next to me, all swaddled like a sweet 7 lb burrito. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Now he's a 22 lb <em>real boy</em>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Part of me misses the infant days when he was so sweet and cuddly and smelled like a newborn and I could just hold him on my chest and he would just fall asleep effortlessly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"> But I cannot forget the Reflux, vision problems, changing diapers in the middle of the night, Cohen's jealousy towards Ben, and the "Mom guilt" for not spending equal/enough time with Cohen/Ben/Andy. I do not miss <em>any</em> of that.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">This year was a big adjustment for all of us. Life seems much easier then it did a year ago and I am very grateful for that. I don't know if it has actually gotten easier, or if we have just adapted to feeling tired and busy all the time. Either way, it's better. And I am happier than ever.</span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Let me tell you some of the reasons we all love Ben so much...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">He has cutest laugh that I have ever heard. It's easy to get a smile out of him</span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">. His cry face is adorable. </span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">His walks like a cowboy. He's a good sleeper. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He's funny. </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">He's cuddly. </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">He's a cute dancer. His hair looks like Albert Einstein's after every nap. He has chubby cheeks. He sometimes sings himself to sleep.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"> We LOVE You my sweet Benjamin Boy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Happy Birthday!</span><br />

He just woke up one morning and decided he no longer wanted to wear a diaper. Everyone kept telling me "wait til he's ready." So I did. Every once and a while I'd stick him in underoos to see if he was "ready." He wasn't. Then one morning he told Andy he wanted to pee on the toilet and that was that. He has not worn a diaper since. AND no accidents. Woot woot.
