This is Steve's attempt at trying to convince me that the new x-box is really for the boys, not for him. You can tell the boys don't actually care who it's for, as long as they get to play! Posted by Picasa

I decided to share our experiences in Asia this way, seeing how my free time will be severely limited in the weeks to come. Caitlyn Joy is due to arrive around November 28th, but we are all hoping she comes just a few days sooner. The boys and I made a paper chain to count down the days until gramma Robertson comes to visit. There are currently 25 days left! She is coming to help with the birth and 1st week post partum. This means that the inevitable is coming quicker than I realize! Since I signed up for a Bachelors in Science of Holistic Nutrition, before I planned another pregnancy, I have lots of work to do before she arrives. I have a final to take and a project to hand in by Nov. 21st! This should keep me busy, and the time going by fast. Today we had a Harvest Party with our good friends from church. All the children were dressed up, which was really cute to see. Ethan decided he didn't want to play anymore when he saw a little girl dressed as a witch. And who can blame him, I guess. He clung to my side for the next hour and a half while I tried to convince him it was okay, and much more fun upsatirs with all the children than with the adults. He eventually went up, but it's not to say without some bribing with chocolate. Hey, I was by myself the whole day, and adult conversation comes at a premium these days! We ended the party departing with one black eye. Ryan and a friend were wrestling and apparently the other party had a bowling pin for a weapon. Well, it found it's way to Ryan's face and we now have a pretty black eye to go to school with tomorrow. They are going to start questioning us soon, he just got rid of the big bump on his head from wresling his brothers last week. Boys will be boys, so they say.
