Toddler wearing!!

Toddler wearing??? Well, I loved wearing Nathan in a sling as a baby but he's just gotten so big!
So I needed something that worked better for a big kid - and I made this carrier!
It's a bit girly, though - so I'll work on a more boyish design.

Dress up day - for our little MONKEY!!

Here's me and Scott with our little Nathan Monkey! Isn't he soooo cute???



Nathan playing basket ball with the big kids at Calvery Chapel Norco



Running to Mommy!!





About to jump onto the whale that was on top
of the bouncy house.




"out peeese" - The big kids were jumping
too rough in there - he wanted out.




Getting ready to go trick-or-treating
with his cousins - what fun they had!!




Scott and his monkey boy!! - Looks JUST
like you, hun! - Just kidding!!

Nathan pics

Here's a picture of Nathan after he FINALLY fell asleep last night.
He wants to keep playing and now he wakes up and plays quietly
and this is what happened: he stacked up his books and took
all his trucks to bed with him!

Ashes on my car...

Here's a couple pictures of a bit of ashes on my car
just from this morning!! It's still 'raining'. Yuck!

What the wind did

That's what the wind did to Nathan's yard! Yikes!

What a mess we have to clean up - after it stops raining ashes.

My new hair/ Nathan's stunts

Well I put some highlights in last month. Here's what they looked like:

My son Nathanael has been learning how to do crazy stuff like, say, stacking up seven yogurt cups while mom's putting groceries away!! He likes to 'drive' and "BUILD" things too.....



Something he built - don't know exactly what...

Time for pumpkins!!

Hi everyone! I finally am able to quickly update my blog with some new pictures of Nathan. He's getting so big!!

New Pictures!

Here are some pictures from various places and activities from the last two weeks... we've been busy!

New pictures!!

Well, the title says it best. Just want to show all my friends and family the latest pics of us.

blood-sugar, diets, what is up with me?

I am trying to figure out the cause of why sometimes I feel dizzy and/or nauseated and/or shaky. Most of the time is all three together. My #1 suspect is that I'm somehow not taking in enough callories/sugar or am hypo-glycemic (did I even spell that right?). But... just to rule out whatever I can... I am going for TWO whole weeks with absolutly NO DAIRY at all. Then I'll eat cheese and ice cream again and see if there is much change in how I feel. I will repeat the same experiment only with wheat/gluten. I think that will be very hard to do as well. I love my dairy and wheat! I don't even have very much - it's amazing how that little teaspoon of ranch or those two tiny scoops of ice cream - that one little square of chocolate I break off once a week - can be missed so much. It's only been three days and I am 'surviving' just fine actually. At any rate - today I got the "dizzy" spell again (not on dairy, mind you - and while very hungry). I got a GREAT drink from Juice-it-up with some berry from Africa in it (which is supposedly better for you than blueberries even) - it was so amazing! No dairy in it, mind you. Plenty of sugar and I felt so much better after drinking it. The shaking stopped nearly 10 minutes after. I'm really starting to think it has something to do with blood-sugar levels or something. I need one of those little devices that pricks your finger and measures your glucose levels. Thanks for your prayers. I don't think this is a big life-threatening deal but it certainly is frustrating and a little scary when you're standing in the smoothie line and you think you are seriously going to pass-out.
