Jan 16-18

Jan 16-Carter trying out his new snorkel & mask.  Paul does not make it into the Club nationals, but is considering joining a team that is going that needs a player. It's in March in Mankato, MN

Jan 17th, Bellevue Children's Museum, we had playdates with Nishant and with Kristina & her kids.

Jan 18 Henri was like this in the middle of the night. How did I find him like this?  When I walked a sleep-walking Carter back to bed!

Jan 14-15

How big my cup of coffee is lately.  I really try to stick to one cup of coffee a morning.  According to my coffee pot it's 2 cups.... however, my sleeping through the night kids (Valerie's been sleeping through about 3 months now) all suddenly stopped.  9pm-12am I had visits from Carter, Henri & THREE from Valerie, who is currently in a growth spurt.  All in her head, somehow.  Her feet still barely keep her newborn size shoes on.  Thank goodness we have a king size bed, I'm so exhausted from the fact that it's not only Valerie waking up (she eats and goes right back to sleep) but Carter, who usually sleeps but occasionally has nightmares that end him up in our bed and Henri who when he wakes up freaks out for about 30 minutes (luckily Carter & Paul could sleep through a bomb going off).  The king size bed means I can hook up Valerie to eat and doze back off and then when she wakes again, do the same thing without having to go get her.  She's big enough and I'm a VERY light sleeper that I'm not worried about her safety in our bed.

January 13, making popcorn





sorry it's so shaky, I was trying to film with one hand and I did some heavy duty workout today, so my arm's tired!

January 9, a baptism

1/9 picture of the day, parishoners surrounding a 10 year old in our church who decided on his own to be baptised.  I love the spirit of all of them supporting this young man. Carter's in the bright orange jacket.
