This past saturday we went to the Family Fun Fair. The boys really had a blast. Here's Lucas in the firetruck:

And Cobin with the astronaut. (Lucas wouldn't even wave at him, much less go near him)Neither of the boys really wanted to do much petting, but they liked seeing the animals we read about in books and hearing the real sounds they make rather than mom's immitations.And here again is Lucas. His first love is anything balloon related...second is playing with bubbles.
I have been messing with the background on the blog. I'm trying to come up with something I like, but I still don't really know what I'm doing.... and tonight must not be my night. My photobucket links weren't working....so when I was ready to give up, I headed over to thecutestblogontheblock.com and their webpage wouldn't pull up. So I was stuck with reverting to my original template. I'm only giving up for tonight, I'm sure I'll try again when I'm tired of looking at the blandness of the original template... Maybe this stuff isn't for me.

Valentines eve James and I went out to dinner and a movie. I've been trading voice lessons for babysitting...and it sure does come in handy! Tomorrow I'm going skiing using that trade. I'm kinda nervous to go on the real mountains of colorado when I've only ever been twice on the manmade Hidden Valley of St. Louis. My friend is "making" me wear a helmet so I should come out safe. I just hope I don't fall on my butt too many times!

New Family Members

We got a new family member, our first pet. He's a blue male beta fish and Cobin decided he should be named Beta Fish. Real original....I hope soon he gets the concept of naming things a little better. We will be adding another member to our family this august. A new baby! I'm a little nervous about having more children than adults in our family, but others seem to manage well, we can figure it out too.
