That is true! Today I went to an Open House for Kindergarten at Cecelia's school...I cannot believe she'll be in Kindergarten next year. Where does the time go? The first years seemed to be long -- "i can't wait until she crawls, walks, talks, etc." -- but when they hit preschool the time really flies. Cecelia is able to do all kinds of things since starting preschool and after the open house today I'm amazed at what she'll be doing just a year from now. Not sure if she'll attend this school or not, but it was a huge moment!
The kids have all been sick. Colin and Cecelia managed to get through the cold pretty good, but poor Caroline has a "smokers cough" as my dad says and really just did not feel well for a few days. But, a little Vicks Vapor Rub and a humidifier will hopefully do the trick! She doesn't like juice (crazy, right?) so we've been trying to battle the cold in other ways. The kids take a long bubble bath that has vapors in it (specifically designed to use when you have a cold). Caroline isn't potty trained yet, so since I keep them in the tub for 1/2 hr (to get the full effect of the vapors) and I can't see what's going on underneath the bubbles, we put her in a swimming diaper (haha) and let her play away!
Colin is rolling over like crazy -- yesterday he rolled several times in a roll. Too funny! The girls both rolled late (a little before 7 months) so seeing our little guy moving around so much this young is really cute to see! Also, Caroline has a few new words -- she is putting a few words together -- "it's raining outside" -- she said that the other morning when we got her (and it was in fact raining outside!)
If I don't get a post up before next week -- Happy Thanksgiving!
Wow, Erin, lots going on! I hope we get to see you soon - we will haven't met Colin!
