Because my iphone is wayyy to convenient to take pictures of the kids on and throwing the camera in the bag is often one more thing I don't want weighing my pregnant back down:) Really though, I need to make more of an effort to use a better camera, because while these pictures may be cute, the quality could be so much better. I've been shooting lots of pictures on my Nikon N80 film camera and I LOVE not having to upload photos and having the prints in my hands right away - seeing them for the first time is like Christmas morning. I think I can still scan in some of my favorites to put on here, I need to test out how well they come out after the transfer.

Dark, but shows his extreme pleasure with his climbing. |

I've been trying to cram in lots of activities before our new baby comes, I remember doing this with Marissa too when I was pregnant with Oliver. Because, lets face it, it just isn't as easy to get out with newborn who needs to eat and poop less than every two hours:) Leo and I are getting ready to tour Marissa's KINDERGARTEN soon! EEK! I cannot believe my baby girl will be going to big girl school next year. I am so proud of the little person she is becoming. We also need to tour some preschools for Oliver because of the wait list factor. We will not be doing a coop again, although it has been a great experience in many ways, it will just be too much with three kids and with Leo working consistent 60+ hour work weeks. The good news is I think he will do great at a non-coop. To give you an idea of how big he looks in real life, parents at Marissa's current preschool which admits kids at age 3+ years keep asking me if he will be starting school in the fall at Oneonta. Then I have to tell them, ummmm, "he is one." Yup, he is a big boy, but not an ounce of fat on him, he is just a strong, tall lil' guy.

Reminding me of Pippi Longstocking here,

Yes, we spent approximately 45 awesome minutes
admiring the SoPas firetruck parked outside the farmer's market.
