Finally here!

We finally have internet! Yeah! I never realized how something could really effect your life. We aren't huge net surfers, but we realized that we are pretty dependent on the net- driving directions, business hours, telephone numbers, and of course contact with friends and family. Unfortunately we couldn't get internet service through our phone company, so we have spent time trying to figure out which is the best option for us (which was even harder to do without a local phone book or internet access to compare the options- thus the delay!). Anyway, we are back online, and we are very thankful! Hopefully, I'll be able to update on some fun times that we have had over the past few weeks. There's much to share!

Updates soon!

I'm sorry for the delay in updates on the blog. We hope to have internet at home within the next week.

Conversations

Recently, BA noticed that people are different colors. One day not long ago I caught him examining his arms and hands. When I asked him what he was doing, he said, "Mom, am I white?"

Today he was doing that again. This time he said, "Mom, am I white right here (pointing to the palm of his hand)?" I then proceeded to tell him that he was indeed "white," but you could also call it "caucasian.

While visiting G-pa and G-ma today he saw his cousin and said, "G-ma, Matti is caucasian."

The fact that he thinks about this stuff baffles me, because we have never discussed people or their races...I wish I could listen to the thoughts of my three year old!

Story Time

BA takes his role as big brother seriously. He is always trying to take care of his brother- he wants to help bathe him, help feed him, and even tell him what he should and shouldn't do. Sometimes we have to remind him that he isn't an adult. This care taking role has earned him a few nicknames, such as "Mother Hen." Anyway, here is a sweet moment of him reading to CJ.
