Theresa

Some of you may remember that Krista ran the National Marathon Championships in Ottawa for Theresa. About 1:25 into this interview she talks about it.
Sadly, her life on earth ended Oct 21, 2010. We will miss her dearly but know she's been welcomed into Heaven!

No more diapers (well, until February)!

Seth only had more more "babyish" thing left in his life of 2.5 yrs. Diapers. I've never believed in rushing the whole potty training thing so when I tried a few times to put him in underwear and it didn't work, back to diapers we went. It's been ages since he used a soother, and he's been in a big bed (w/ Micah) and without use of a booster at the table for a while now. At the end of September, I was talking to him about the new baby, discussing things you do (nursing, rocking, diaper-changing) and he put it all together. As he often says, "I NOT a baby". So, into underwear he went and out of the kids' bag came the diapers (he went to the closet, opened the bag and took them all out!). He's done so well and has been dry the last 3 nights. We still have accidents but believe we've made our last purchase of diapers ... until February!

Enjoying the Good Times.

1. There are (many) times when our 2.5 yr old gets out of bed. He didn't get too far this time...before he crashed.

2. Moses is so good with the kids. Here he watches the action.

3.
Seth built his own train and Micah joined him for some fun.

4. Yes, we are looking for bunkbeds!

Fall 2010

Micah and Seth just looove going through boxes filled with Eload or Saucony goods!

Micah enjoyed his first class trip, which included his first school bus ride, to Brantwood Farms.
