not very good at this anymore...

Apparently I forgot how to post on this blog, because I know it has been forever! I think it is because I always feel obligated to put some pictures on each post, but I am really bad ( about as bad as posting) at loading the pictures from my camera to the computer. I know it seems like a simple task, but somehow it becomes really hard to do consistently! Anyways, I have gotten past that for now and figured I would just share some things that are going on in our life...

--Nathan turned ONE!! We had a party for him on superbowl Sunday (which I felt was appropriate since I was in labor during the superbowl last year) and he turned one on February 8.
--Nathan spent his first birthday covered in a rash from head to toe. Apparently he is allergic to Amoxicillan. He is currently on his third antibiotic for an ear infection that won't go away. It's been a long month of sickness for poor Nate.
--Lily is officially potty trained!!!!!!!!! We embarked on that adventure at the beginning of my Christmas break and she did great. It took about 2 weeks to feel fairly confident in her being potty trained. but overall, it was a good experience for all of us. We are now happy to just be buying one set of diapers!
--We got to take a trip to Disneyland with my parents right before I went back to work after Christmas break. We had a blast and Lily, especially, really enjoyed herself. Her favorite rides were Dumbo (with Grandpa!) and It's a Small World.
--Nathan is walking! (and trying real hard to run!!) He started walking around 11 months and hasn't looked back. He is a man on the go and definitely helps us get our daily exercise in. He is always trying to keep up with his sister, which recently involves climbing things and dancing.
--Steve just got back from Jr High Winter Camp at Hume Lake and next weekend will take the High School-ers up there as well. He is taking his biggest group of students in a while and God is doing some really cool stuff through the youth ministry at Crosspoint.

That's all I can think of for now...and Nathan and I finished the muffin we were sharing (he stole most of it) and he isn't really into just sitting in his high chair watching me type =)
