Back working nights again. This seems to be the only time I have to update this site. The problem really is our internet connection at home is so slow it is more frustrating then fun to get online. So now that I have some time I will keep you up to date.

Prairie is three weeks away from her due date and we are all very excited to meet the newest member of our family. Prairie can hardly walk and is very ready to have this baby. Skylar is getting bigger which is not that surprising. He is starting to talk in full sentences. Sentences that only mommy and daddy understand and only sometimes, but sentences none the less. He will be two next week.

We haven't been venturing too far from home these last few weeks. We did go to Legoland and have pictures on the site. It was a lot of fun and Skylar really liked it. Toward the end he fell over a railing and split his lip but he survived.

John Oliver, a friend of mine for many years, is rooming with us. He was in Hawaii when we went over there and then he went to Nepal for a month and was just going to stay for a few weeks with us before moving on, but he got a job and likes the area so he is going to stay for awhile.

We just had our special assembly day and Skylar was so good for sitting for such a long time. He even fell asleep in my arms for the afternoon, which he does not do often. I was not looking forward to chasing him around all day, but he did great.

So since I am going to be working nights until November I will spend more time on the site. Right now I am going to heat up my breakfast/dinner. It is 2:25AM as I type.

Hope everything is good with you. I will let everyone know what we have, baby wise, as soon as I know.


Ttfn,


Nate, Prairie & Skylar
