New Pics





Okay, I'm getting lazy, it's been a while since I've sent out new photos. Eric and I have both been very sick - weird flu- very high fevers & night sweats/chills. We're better now, luckily none of the boys got it.

All is well in the house of boys (and one mom). I seem to have lost the battle of the toilet seat, Eric promises me eventually I'll get my own bathroom, ah, to dream. Highlights lately:

I took the boys to the middle school where I work and saw lots of good friends and many very interested students. The boys did very well and did not seem to notice they were the center of attention - the elementary school playground and library carpet were far too cool. We all went swimming last weekend - for Owen the first time. They all love it - and splash each other and try to kick and swim. We're signing the older boys up for swimming lessons that begin in November. They've talked about it several times since so I guess we'll be going back. Preschool went to four mornings a week and Sam and Charlie are loving it. I've been taking Owen to a little kid library groups with reading, singing, and playing - he's doing pretty well with the other kids - he does share well. Everyone's growing, Owen started PT and is pulling himself up more on furniture and us. He is definitely interested in everything his brothers are doing (sometimes they play with him, other times they just steal his toys) but occasionally he'll skulk off into one of the bedrooms and touch their things and play on their bed when no one is paying attention. The new thing with sleeping is sometimes one or both of the older boys comes out into the living room during the night and we find them sleeping on the couch. Not really sure what to do there - we're happy they're not waking us or coming into our room - plus, they're sleeping. On the other hand it would be nice to have them in their bedroom.

Okay, in these Sam is the one sitting in the chair, Owen is in the sleeper, and the close-up is Charlie.
