The doctor's visit

Today Solon had his physical for preschool. That was so much fun! He was a typical 3 year old. He did not want to take his clothes off, normally I can't keep them on. He didn't want to doctor to touch him. And the whole time, in the background, I hear Emily saying.... Is Solon getting a shot? When is he getting a shot? Did he have his shot yet? Fortunately, there were no shots at this visit. But after we left the doctor, we had to proceed to the lab for blood work. Once again, great fun! Solon screamed when they put the needle in his arm. He told me he was not going to pee-pee in the cup. But then we told him about the magic door. You put the cup of pee-pee in the magic door and it will disappear. Amazing!! It worked. What an exciting day!!

Snapfish

I have just created albums on Snapfish to store pictures of the kids. I hope that everyone is able to see them. I am at mom and dad's working on the computer to get all of this set up. I am hoping to get some connectivity on the compound soon. I greatly dislike dial-up connection. It is so useless in a world that move much faster than dial-up.

I finally did it!

I have finally set up a blog to share information with family about the kids. Today is Solon's birthday. He turned 3 today. We are still working on the potty training. He has the concept but we are still working on the follow through. Emily is 4 1/2 and truly a joy. She is constantly talking. We are spending our summer with family and friends. Swimming is almost a daily event. Emily is like a little fish. Solon just figured things out on Saturday and is taking off.
