Halloween 2010

Sorry for another really long hiatus from blogger. We're facing difficult times. Terrible twos in full swing with a spirited and focused child...who knows how to take and delete picture from our camera! I had a great video of her "reading" polar bear, polar bear, what do you hear. I might have retaken that, I'll look for it. In the meantime here are a couple of pictures of halloween.

Xavi really loved celebrating halloween with MANY friends. Carolina wasn't too thrilled about the weather or the scary stuff on people's porches. I have some of her on my camera that I will post soon, maybe later tonight.

sharing a room....

You can barely make out their little heads but they're both in there fast asleep...but it is only nap time. Bedtime is a whole other beast we haven't quiet figured out yet. Carolina is in full potty training mode and doing ok most of the time. Xavi is learning to read, very slowly and sometimes frustratingly. We try not to push so he remains interested. Carolina will start at Xavi's preschool this coming Monday!

halloween in July and hide and seek

life...

End of the school year is upon us...1 more week to go. Life is busy and hectic, but good. Trying to sell our house...not so good or fun. Carolina doesn't want her hair combed...really not fun.

Here are two pouty kids. Carolina was told she has to lose the pacifier. It's moving her teeth. There's still hope for her teeth, but it's been a battle taking that thing away from her. Doing better these days without it. Starting potty training. Going ok.

Summer is here! Ok was for a week, then disappeared. Back again briefly...hoping for more consistent weather soon. Cut Caro's hair to mark the occasion. Thought with warmer weather she might let me comb it into ponytails...wrong!

Xavi broke his arm at school. Had to happen sometime. Here he with his cast and Hyde Park Henry (the stuffed bear). He's taking it around the neighborhood and taking pics with it for school. Cast is red, Henry is brown. Carolina starts at school August 30th!

Some much needed R&R starts mid-June!
