This was Cole at the Orick Rodeo in July. Everytime I play this for Connor he gets so excited and can't get enough of it. I think he got third place and he was at least 3 years younger than the other two kids that beat him. This is right up his alley.

Too Early??

This one is for Monica. Sorry it has taken me so long to do an update. I know how much you like to see what everyone is doing. I actually haven't picked up my camera for at least 3-4 weeks. So this morning I was procrastinating leaving my house for a few minutes and I got a few pictures in, so that I wouldn't have to do a post with just writing:) As far as an update goes, there hasn't been much going on lately that is exciting enough to post about, besides that I am in my fourth week of school, it has been a really fun semester so far. I have at least 4 hours of Activity classes M-Th, Women's studies, Elementry P.E, and a Recreation class.I am doing a lot of teaching in my classes, and starting in two weeks I will be going to Arcata Elementry and teaching in a 1st grade P.E class for a couple of weeks. It has truley flown by and I am really enjoying it.



Lucas is 8 months. He has 7 teeth now and his prefered mode of transportation is scooting backwards with a roll in there every so often. His most favorite thing to do is to stand. He would stand all the time if he could balance better. He has recently started to stand up next to the couch and play with toys.



Connor is still enjoying his school. He is talking more and more which I think might be due to all of the interaction and the learning at school. It seems like everyday he will say things or talk about things that I haven't even mentioned before.

I am still feeling bad leaving him there though. Not becuase he doesn't like it or because they aren't great people. I just feel like he is a stranger to them. And I think "how can he have a close connection with anyone there? They barely know him. But I know that it's all in my head and I need to get over it.

Maybe In time....
