I am not very good at the blogging thing, so I apologize for being so distant. I thought I would try to write a few lines before the kids get up. First of all I want to say hello to Grandma and Grandpa. Kimber thanks you for her birthday present. We are using the birthday money to get her a cute outfit and swimsuit for the trip. I was glad to read that your ankle is healing well Grandma. I hope it continues to heal quickly.
I had a friend tell me the other day that I "do mundane well." I wasn't sure if this was a compliment or not. This friend of mine went to business school in France and Singapore, and is now working in Switzerland. She told me that the mundane frightens her. So there you have it. I am queen of mundane. With that introduction, let me update you on a few of the mundane events of our lives.
Just yesterday, for instance, I biked to my school and back, a total of eight miles. I had some work to do, and thought it would be fun. I found out later that our car had a flat tire so it was the only way I would have gotten to school after all.
Last night, I had the challenge of sweeping up the floor with Kimber close behind trying to eat the old Cheerios and fish crackers. She is quite fast when she wants to. Kimber has an interesting way of getting around. She does not crawl on her knees, but rather scoots with one leg underneath her and the other leg pushing her body forward. She is trying to stand and she creeps around furniture. No walking on her own yet. She can say dog and woof, woof.
The boys are doing well. My brother got them "The Dangerous Book for Boys." It really is dangerous. Patrick asked me yesterday if he could use one of my knives to make a spear (instructions provided in the book) and this morning (he is awake now) he asked if we could get a dog so he could teach it tricks (also taught in the book.)
I had better get this sent. Otherwise I won't. We love you and look forward to seeing you.
Emilee and family
