{Sweet Drew}
I ran back upstairs and when I saw the look on Carl's face, it freaked me out. I seriously couldn't breathe. We started flipping on every light and looking in the washer and dryer, etc. Horrible. Zach was awake now and so was Ty because we were literally yelling Drew's name. I ran downstairs again to look for him and I heard Carl yell "I got him". I almost collapsed. I felt like I was gonna throw up. I ran upstairs and saw Carl had Drew so I went and got Ty who was screaming by this time. Then Carl and I switched. He put Ty back to bed while I just held onto Drew. Apparently he had crawled under his bed to find Zach's blue matchbox car and had climbed all the way in the corner and fell asleep. FREAKED ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I sat up in bed awhile and prayed. I didn't know how else to calm down. I thanked God that Drew was alright and I prayed that I wouldn't have nightmares!!!!
Everyone is safe and sound....but seriously a traumatizing 15 minutes!!!!

Ty Ty @ the end of 9 months!
Bye Bye Passie

So we decided a couple weeks ago to just not give the passie to him at bed time and you know what? He didn't seem to care. I prepared myself for nap time the next day, but he never even mentioned it. I didn't want to jinx it, but by day 3, Carl and I were pretty darned proud of ourselves--and Drew! Well, then last week, I called the boys in from playing outside and what do I see but Drew walking in with a passie stuck in his mouth (Carl and I thought we had found them all). I gasped and he looked startled and yanked it out of his mouth and put it behind his back--precious, yes. But I knew we had to take it one step further. So I talked to him about being a big two year old now and big boys don't have passie's. Only babies have passies. I told him we needed to throw away his passie. He said "ok"! Here's a couple pictures.
I can't tell this story without talking about Zach, though. I have to say, that he was awesome during this whole thing. After Drew threw away his passie and turned around, Zach was RIGHT THERE clapping and yelling "Drew Drew's a big boy now!!!" Then Drew says "I a big boy now!" with all the enthusiasm that Zach had. It was the sweetest thing ever! I do love my boys!
