Finally a new update.

I know it’s been a month since the last update. So here is the update.

Duncan went to his first birthday party for a school mate. A girl in is class, he was only one of 2 boys invited which I need to keep an eye in the future. He has been doing well in school and at home.

Eric is doing well. He likes going to preschool and listening at story time. He can tell you what stories were read to him.

We just got 10 inches of snow so the boys spent last Saturday out playing in it. It’s good for them to get out and burn up that energy. It keeps us from losing our mind.

Lilliana is growing like a weed. She has learned to give kisses. I’ll hold her and say kissy and she’ll lean in and I’ll give her a kiss. At which point she gives me a big smile. She has not figured out the crawling thing yet. She tends to push herself backwards and then gets stuck under the couch or the coffee table. She is finally eating solid foods but still requires mommy to help her sleep.

Karen and I went my company’s holiday party on the 15th. The company paid for a hotel room for the night so we took advantage. The boys stayed with Bridie and Jim while Lilly did come with us. She stayed in the room with Vici and Seiki while we were down stairs at the bar and restaurant. The rooms in the hotel had 43inch flat plasma TVs with DVD players so we had a bottle of wine and watched a movie while Lilly slept in her pack and play after the party. Even with her it was still nice to have a night away from home.

Not much happening with Karen and I. Karen is doing her Stamp’in Up stuff and I’m still with the same company. I’ve talked with a couple of other companies on the west coast but the cost of living is so much higher out there that they can’t afford me and I can’t afford to move for what they are offering. So I’m still considering my options.

I hope the next update won’t be a month in coming.

Take Care.
Brian

Eric is going to tell you his story with little help from Dad.

Spiderman has had a busy day and is tired. Its hard to walk if you legs don't bend. So he is resting and wishs out loud for a ride on a Dinosaur.

The dinosaur comes along and says, "I'll give you a ride Spiderman."

Spiderman and the Dinosaur get together. Spiderman needs to figure out which way to face.
