gah

blah blah blah yeah yeah yeah.

i had a great oscar weekend in st louis with kim. we learned that "nectar" is not the same as "juice." :)

ian is going on 16 months now and is doing quite a few new things. he does a few animal sounds now: cow, dog, and snake. he continues to be a champion sleeper/napper/eater as well. we went to fish fry last friday with grandma and grandpa rogers, and learned that ian LOVES baked beans. this is not necessarily a good thing as the next day's diapers proved.

abby is well on her way to being a reader. i tried her out yesterday with some sight words and she knew several of them, which was kind of a surprise. we've been reading charlie and the chocolate factory for bedtime and it's been going well. she's enjoying the longer story. the majority of her play is imaginary stuff, and she's particularly enjoying assigning various roles to people, such as her desire for all of us to be a family of beluga whales.

blah. i'm boring today.
