As it is, I am typing this post with one hand because I have a baby in my other arm.
I remember a time before I was married, or at least before I had kids, when I would say "I never have any spare time." What was I THINKING??!!
I have uploaded some new pictures to the web albums. We have been doing so much this year, it is going to be hard for me to explain it all. We have gone through quite a few things in the past few months. Some difficult decisions have been made but we are feeling very optimistic about the future.
With spring on the way, I have been gearing up for all the gardening and outside work that is coming and I have a new business idea that I will hopefully be setting up this summer. I am doing a lot of reading and plan on doing a lot of hands on training in the coming months.
Gena has also been working on a little business recently. Between her talents with sewing, knitting and the like, as well as he ability to learn quickly and her interest in getting into baking and cooking more, she has plenty of options on which way she wants to go.
Lincoln and Lenore are looking forward to summer just as much as we are. We got Link some new shoes with velcro on them and he is able to put them on all by himself. He is also learning how to dress himself in the morning and he has been out of diapers for months. We also quit using pull-ups at night about 3 weeks ago and so far we have had no accidents! He is going to preschool in the fall and I keep telling him that the teachers won't help him pull his pants up or put his shoes on, so he has to learn on his own. He's been doing great.
Lenore is crawling like a maniac now. She moves so fast. She also pulls herself up on the couches and pretty much anything else that will hold her. I have a feeling she will be walking before her birthday, but we will see. She is definitely getting big now. She talks to us and tries to tell us stories all the time. Those two little bottom teeth she got around Christmas and New years haven't been joined by any friends yet. Lenore eats some baby food, but without all those teeth she doesn't munch on anything quite yet.
Check the slideshow at the right for the new images. I'll post some video this week if I don't forget.
