Guilty Blog

Hello all. I feel guilty for not writing for a while. I've just gotten caught up on all the recent postings. What a wonderful birth story Dave and Sabrina. Wish we were there to help you somehow. Nate is driving to NH tonight to pick up Heather T. and her boyfriend, Jason. They will be visiting for a week, staying with Grandma T. Nate's parents will be arriving on Friday as well. Should be a good visit. Some news about the girls: Jane is walking more confidently and climbing on everything. I'm not used to that at all! Anna said "mama" for the first time last week. She's said it almost every day since. I've waited over three years to hear that! She is liking pre-school more and more. She's exploring more and scooting all around. She likes playing with her friends Bella, Madeline and Lokie. I'm glad she's so happy. The one challenge is getting the girls back into the car at the end of school. Picture me with Jane in the baby Bjorn and Anna in an umbrella stroller. The cars were parked so close that I had to lift the stroller with Anna in it over the hood of a car. Hard to picture, but I'm sure if anyone saw me they were holding their breath, waiting for us all to topple over. The two of them combined are a few pounds shy of half my weight. I don't know what I'll do when the snow falls and we're all in winter gear. Time for bed. Goodnight.

Hey Howdy! This is a no-guilt blog, folks! We all post as we can! Glad to hear that you're all on the move, though.

WOW! I can see you lifting the girls now- you'd fit in here in DK, biking with a backpack, one kid on the back of the bike and hauling a trailor with a second or third, plus groceries! (and uphill, too) Moms on the move look like something out of Dr. Seuss.

ANNA IS TALKING!!! Bravo! That must be a wonderful sound, indeed!! I'm thrilled.

. . . and Jane is a climber? It's amazing how fast kiddies move at that age- even vertically. I swear they teleport. Good luck with the chaos- wish I could share it all in person.

ah yes- the joys of managing two babies! All we've done is go to the pediatrician, and that was still a big production that usually results in lots of lifting.

Wonderful to hear of Anna's words, and Jane's dexterity! Say hi to the Tinsleys for us too, and let them know our news. :)
