It's been too long...

Well folks, eveey time I went to post this week Ray had turned the computer off and I was just too lazy to turn it back on and wait for everything to load. But here I am - ready to Blog... Let's hope so anyway.

I am addicted to popsicles... and have been contacted to attend a doula and childbirth educator training seminars, I have asked for more info. We'll see.

Joshua is doing well. He had his first experience with the toilet bowl water the other morning. Ray was letting my get some more sleep, so he kindly took Joshua downstairs. About an hour later I hear Joshua playing with the drawers in the bathroom, and then I hear this "splash, splash"... I wait, thinking that I will give Ray a chance to get to Joshua first - as he is the one "on duty", and I hear it again, another "splash, splash" -knowing that Kids can drown easily, plus the grossness of Joshua playing in the toilet (even though it was flushed)I run down the stairs and pull him away, as ray finally gets off the couch to see what's happening. Joshua is so fast on his hands and knees, he takes off and can be in the kitchen one minute and in the bathroom the next. He is also understanding the concept of "come here". I can call him and he will follow me, and come to me. (He also likes popsicles).

The other night I was on the phone with my mom, and she wanted to talk to Joshua, which she always does when she calls - I put the phone to his ear and she sings and talks to him, anyway Joshua responds by getting quiet, smiling and this last time, he pulled the phone away from his ear and gave it a kiss. It was so precious.

We miss our family!

Well, as far as I know that's all for now. I will try to blog more often as I find that I can't keep intersting information in my brain longer than a day or two...
