Boy Do They Grow Up Fast!!!

Hey all...coming to ya from a snowy Seattle...yes...snowy. It does snow here...sometimes. The hilarious part is how no one here can handle it. We have an inch...maybe 2 all the schools are closed (including colleges) people aren't making it to work, etc. It's hilarious. I remember when it snows the very first time after we moved here...maybe 2 inches and still snowing...Christy and I had just said goodbye to my mother and father (they had been visiting for Thanksgiving) and Christy wanted to go to the mall. So we head out to Alderwood Mall and 1/2 the mall was shut down. On the Sunday after Thanksgiving!!! It's so funny.


Anyway, on to the post.

Man it seems like yesterday that Christy was pregnant with Eilish...now with her third birthday bearing down on us it's just amazing the things that they do. Watching her grow from this little ball of pudding into the walking, talking, running around getting into trouble little girl that she's turned into is just amazing. Now she's taking things even further. As previously mentioned she is beginning to potty train...maybe potty familiarize is more the ticket. She like to sit on the potty...she really likes to play with the toilet paper (although I have to give her credit...she tries to wipe). And now she's starting to brush her own teeth...and do it pretty well. I've posted a video of this...keep scrolling down.

And then there is the Cav Man...what a kid. I posted the video of him rolling over at seven weeks. He can sit up if you set him on the couch with his back to the couch back...not quite unassisted yet...he just gets tired of holding his melon up after a while and starts to slide to one side. You put him on his belly and he'll hold his head up forever. Now he's starting to play with one of Eilish's old play gyms. It's a piano type thing that Eilish didn't play with until she was over 3 months old. There are some pics of that (plus one of Eilish playing with it when she was little) and a video below.

And last but not least...was there ever a more appropriate T-Shirt for this child? I remember when we were in the store...Christy was maybe 6 months pregnant and she picked up that shirt and said, "This just seems right...doesn't it?" Boy, she knew something long before the rest of us.
