I know I know.

OK, OK I know I said I would do updates daily. Now it seems if I’m lucky to do them monthly. It’s been busy for me and for the family. We have all been sick in the last month. Duncan and Lilly had to be on antibiotics, Duncan for Strep Throat and Lilly for an ear infection. Flu is making its way around the house now. I started it (which is odd for me), then Eric got it now Duncan. Lilly had her flu shot this year so I’m hoping that she wouldn’t get it.

I have traveled to LA twice in the last month and to San Francisco in the last week. I’m thinking I should just get an apartment there. Karen has done a great job dealing with the house and the sick kids and the fussy kids.

There are new activities going on, Duncan has started level 1 swimming lessons which means he works on the basic kicking and other swimming movements. He has jumped off the diving board a lot with a life jacket and with a floating noodle. I was surprised he has done so well. He really enjoys it. In school he has started to read and has done quite well at it. He was to receive a medal for the amount of books that he has read and what we have read to him. Today he is home sick so he couldn’t get his medal. The teacher said that he can get it once he returns to school.

Eric has also started a swimming program called Parent and Tot. He and I go to the pool and join other parents with their kids and do the basic swimming motions and get the kids used to being in the water. Eric really enjoys going and making the teacher smile at him. He is still attending a preschool 2 days week. He enjoys story time and playing which is what you would expect from a 3year old. He is really big in to super heroes and Spiderman is his favorite. When he playing super hero he’ll pretend to tie a cape around his neck and put on his gloves and off he goes.

Lilliana is crawling and babbling. She really enjoys playing with her toys and smiles a lot at them. She is clapping her hands and shaking her heard with a good laugh. She now has a happy dance. Karen was getting ready to take the boys to the library and got out Lilly’s winter jumper. She clapped her hands bounced up and down then crawled to wear the jumper was then clapped her hands again. She is going to be a very out going person.

I have a ton of new pictures that I’ll be posting from time to time. I’ll send out e-mail reminders again.
