A small catch up

OK Ill start from....November 16th....The month of November has been super busy.
My brother Alan Cummins graduated from college! Super exciting. He got engaged to his girlfriend of 2 years! They set a date for March 26th in Virginia....so we are planning a trip and totally going to visit mountain lake again because I LOVE dirty dancing!! He also celebrated his birthday on the 17th at Amazing Jakes and we had A BLAST!! Pizza and rides you can not get any better then that ;),
On November 18th my beautiful little princess child.."Diva" had her 2nd Birthday!! (that makes for 2 years in a row that I have NOT been pregnant and I like it alot!) We celebrated her birthday at Chucky cheese and had a great time with friends and family to spoil her with lots of toys and clothes!!
Ethan started pre-school on the 11th. Sad momma over here trying to take it all in. 
I decided that I would get him tested for speech and see what they say because he has a really hard time communicating. So he was evaluated for everything. He showed no signs of anything, has the abilities of a 4 year old, and qualified for speech therapy. When Ethan talks, everything starts with a H and ends with a TS,  So when he says Dogs, its sounds like Hodts. That was a great example. Ethan's first day of school was great! He goes to school one more day then Candice, and she is OK with that, because she thinks that we are going to SHOP while he is at school......She is a princess. I asked Ethan if he made any friends and he was sooooo excited to tell me, "yes 2,(fingers) hinkts hurts, and hrownts hurts" (that is pink shirt and brown shirt) He was just super excited and had so much fun so I was happy about that. He got a note sent home with him asking if we can work on his "stubbornness" Um yeah that kid is set in his own ways! GOOD LUCK! I think that I was perfectly OK with him going to pre school, because I didn't look at it as Pre school. I think of it as he is getting the help he needs and No matter how many times I have him repeat something he cant make change so this is good for him!
With all that being said, I have so much to do and just don't want to do any of it because I'm being lazy and my little tornado Sam follows me and I honestly get NOTHING done!  Christmas is being hosted at our house and I honestly feel like I want to have a open house and sell it all! Ever feel that way?!
Pictures to come with minimal words!
