This is our maiden voyage into cyberspace. Kind of exciting really! We thought it would be a great way to keep those who are interested updated on the happenings in our family.
So....where to start?! Samuel is finally on the mend. After several months of illness we finally found a doctor who seems to be helping. He's currently fighting off infections in both his ears and still has a nasty cough (compliments of the Croup back in March) but he's definitely more settled and content. We call him our 'little vacuum' because he spends his days scouring the floor for ANYTHING (and I mean anything!) to munch on! Just today he swiped a toasted cheese sandwich from Ben's plate and managed to get a good mouth full before I could get to him.
Ben, on the other hand, won't put anything in his mouth unless he's reassured that it's something a Transformer would eat. If he's not watching Transformers on TV or playing with the action figures, he's building his own out of Lego. His entire universe revolves around them. Of course Domingos loves it, he finally has a reason to drag out his 15 year old Transformer collection. Our morning catch cry before heading out the door is: "Autobots, transform and rollllll out!"
And then of course there's Hannah, our little princess. She's such a wonderful big sister. This morning I watched her get a wet face washer and hold it on Ben's ever-so-slightly-bleeding lip (self inflicted) and slowly walk him to the 'naughty corner', where she sat and held his hand (I know it kind of defeats the purpose, but it was so cute!). She loves school (even though learning makes her 'sweaty'), reading, making things with paper and baking using her own recipes (usually flour, eggs, milk, banana and cocoa, but we have had a few interesting ingredients like bread crust and chocolate Quik). We've been pleasantly surprised at how well some of her cakes have turned out.
