I decided maybe it was time for me to post something, though I'm not sure what I should post about. We got a new camera in January, but all of the pictures are still on it. I realize that's a common theme with me.

Jon went to Guatemala in February for a week. I took the kids to Minnesota to spend time with all of the grandparents. Jon left on Friday morning and I headed up to MN that afternoon. That evening, Leah crawled for real (which we were just waiting for because she'd been dragging herself around for a month) and pulled herself up on the couch. The following Saturday she sat up by herself, a few hours before Jon came home, of course. So she has advanced herself quite nicely. She turned 8 months yesterday and is into everything.

Ben is starting to recognize letters and numbers on things. He's very excited about it and we think he may be an early reader. He has been potty trained for a while and it's a very nice feeling for me.

Finn is talking more and more. I am trying to start potty training with him and he's pretty receptive. He just wants to go potty at Walmart and restaurants and wear underwear like Ben does.

I have 2 sick boys. It's going around but hopefully it doesn't last long or require a trip to the doctor. On that note, it's time to go take care of them.
