It seems Glen won’t be outdone, and is determined to learn to walk just like his older cousin Simon! Here is the footage!
It has been a fun new stage! Enjoy.
The world we live in

It has been a while since I have updated on the blog, I will try to do better:)
A few weeks ago My nephew Andrew was confronted by two men in a car. They asked him and his friend if they wanted some candy. Andrew said no and tried to walk away but one of the men grabbed him by the arm. His friend then told the man to let Andrew go and started to make a scene. The man let Andrew go and took off in his car. Andrew and his friend immediately went to get their parents, the police were called, and the whole neighborhood was out looking for the car. Luckily for our family this did not end a different way.
The next Family home evening we had we did role playing with the kids. Mike pretended he was a stranger and we let them practice what to do if a stranger ever tried to talk to or take one of them. This is the second time We have done this and Aiden is getting better at recognizing situations. I encourage everyone to role play with their kids. They will know better what to do if the situation ever happens to them.

Glen and his food
by johanna on Jul.12, 2009, under General
Tonight I tried to feed glen some carrots and potatoes. He will not open his mouth. I have to make him laugh just to get the spoon through, but lately he won’t even do that. He is becoming wise to my tactics. so finally I said, “here you do it” and I put down the spoon and bowl of food on his tray. He immediately picked up the spoon, opened his mouth wide and stuck the spoon in. All this time he just wanted to do it himself!
James is so cute

James said something the other day that I have to repeat.
We were getting ready to go to the library on Monday and Mike told James to go get some pants on. He went upstairs to find some, then he comes running back to Mike saying,”Daddy, Mommy washed my pants for I can wear them, her nice.” Mike proceeds to correct his grammar, I just thought it was cute.
