I lost my camera battery charger. It happened a couple months ago, but it is still lost. So other than not wanting to post without any new pictures and not feeling my life is interesting enough to post about, I don't have any more excuses ;) hmm what to write... updates you say? okay! After Adams birthday he started not only walking every where, but also running and climbing onto EVERYTHING. He goes off all the big slides alone and has shown his desire to be independent by "running away". after about 50 or so feet he will turn around until he is sure I know what he is trying to get away with and then he takes off again. He got his first black eye a few weeks ago by running around with one shoe on and falling into the playground... silly monkey. He has increased his vocabulary by adding "da" (dance) "doh" (down) "uh" (look) "mo" more and he claps when we say happy (if your happy and you know it...), shakes his fists when we say shake, and depending on the music he will bounce (he loves techno for this) or spin in circles (usually softer music). He is learning new things everyday. turning on and off light switches and scooting his car to where ever he want to climb up.
Nathaniel is in France right now and though I do fine during the day, in the evening I miss him tons. He has been working for the past several months on his research and now he has the opportunity to present it in a large conference in Nantes. I am super excited for him and proud of all his hard work. He will be graduating in Apil so he is finishing up his classes and taking the GRE hoping to get into a great Grad program.
As for myself, I am learning to enjoy being a mother of a very busy toddler. Adam makes sure we get outside at least once daily, if only to check the mail. We have also been more involved in a mom craft day that the sisters in my ward put together. while our kids play I have made paper flowers, Autumn magnets and even a necklace made out of an old tie. I am loving learning to be more creative.
