meeting

Our church will possibly be calling a pastor, and there was a congregational meeting Sunday after the evening service.  Nursery was not going to be provided and Mike and I both really wanted to be in the meeting...  Um, yeah, our boys aren't really ready to sit through something like that.  I tried to be prepared by packing a few favorite books and toys, but we hardly made it through the opening prayer!  We took the boys out and were able to go back into the meeting a little later because the ladies in charge of nursery came to help (one of them has a boy a little older than Caleb and Logan that wasn't making it through the meeting either).  There's another meeting next week to vote, and now they're actually planning on having nursery provided.  :)

This week we got the boys tricycles!  First lesson learned, put together new toys after kids are in bed.  Second, don't get them hyped up to play on their new toy until you're really sure it's ready.  So, Logan especially was cranky for the first half of the week.  Mike had one tricycle almost ready, got Logan excited about it, then realized he had to do a couple things to it yet...  So he had to take it away....  Didn't go over so well.  Then, while he was putting the second tricycle together there were two little boys that wanted to play with the new toy, and only one toy ready to ride.  That equation doesn't work so well.  The boys have now had a few chances to ride their tricycles and they are doing pretty well.  Logan can barely reach the ground, and he gets easily frustrated, but most of the time he does okay.  They don't really get the concept of pedaling yet.  We've had a few spills, but usually in the grass, so no major injuries.

The other day Logan fell out of his crib!  Wasn't expecting that one.  Hasn't happened again, so hopefully he learned...  Caleb also got out of his crib yesterday.  Quite awhile ago I put the side down on his crib, but he hasn't gotten out at all until yesterday.

The other day we marked each of the boys' height on the wall (I've been meaning to get/make something to put on the wall, just haven't gotten around to it....).  Hope you can see it okay in the photo, they've really been growing!!
