just a little update

Sid is starting to pull himself up into standing position!  He is very proud of himself.  He is crawling at such a fast rate too.  If he knows you are coming after him, he hits high gear.  He is also getting some top teeth which really interrupted his schedule last week.  He seems so much better now.  He is waving hello and good-bye.  I like this age.  He keeps us on our toes.

Lola is continuing to go to school and loving it. She is dressed and ready on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.  We can't get out the door fast enough for her.  It is a great school and we really like the staff.  We are going to register her for summer and fall.

I rode Marc's Vespa to work yesterday.  It was so fun.  A little scary on the busier streets, but I held my own. I think I need a pink one of my very own.  Wonder if the kids would ride in a side car?  Kidding.  Not the safest thing for them.  We did pick up a bike trailer at a garage sale this week.  Needed a little mending that Marc easily eventually completed.  I had been wanting one that Costco is selling, and this one was a steal!  It can be used as a stroller as well.  We picked up a helmet for Sid and can't wait to get out and use it!!  I did take them out for a walk and used it as a stroller.  I put the handle on thinking that it 'clicked' into place and as I pushed them out onto the steep driveway, I was left standing there with the handle in my hand and the stroller speeding into the street!!  I caught it half way into the street.  THANK GOODNESS there was no traffic!  There are pins that hold the handle in. It must have been a sight. I think Lola really liked going that fast as she did not know they were unattended by me.  I am still embarrassed to walk outside thinking that my neighbors are still laughing at me or cursing me for being such an irresponsible parent.

I have an escapee...... I better run.
