My Apologies!

I have completely neglected the blog of late...my bad! With fall setting in though, I think i will have a little more time at the computer. And while I don't expect to catch up on the missed months, I will start with that's going on of late...

Toby started soccer last month and seems to enjoy it. He's playing at the Rec center...and there are a LOT of kids in the lollipop league! He's on the Cheetahs and it's making Saturday mornings a lot of fun...even if that fun does start at 8:30!


Go Number 6!!!

Last month we also went down to the Newport Aquarium. Here's a pic of the kids with the Ohio River in the background, and Cincy on the other side -
Toby started school this week - he really seems to love his preschool. His teachers are so nice and the kids seem like a really good group.
It's a new schedule for us - school starts at 12:30 and pickup is at 3, so what is usually naptime at our house is suddenly the busiest part of the day. Lucy is having a rough adjustment as well - skipping naps! Argh! Of course, yesterday when we didn't have preschool she napped like a champ.

This weekend is the Octoberfest here in Vandalia, so we're planning to take the kids. I think it looks like a lot of fun, and Curtis is a big fan of all foods German, so I think we'll have a good time.

Toby is watching his favorite show right now - How It's Made, on the Science Channel. He LOVES the show. It's too cute watching him! Both he and Lucy have taken to drawing and coloring a LOT lately...and you can tell in how improved their pictures are! It warms a mother's heart...especially one who loved drawing so much when she was a child! (I like to think I'm still an artist at heart... I mean, come on, I make YARN!)
