WEBSITE UPDATE: As I type, the photo gallery for mid-March through yesterday is going up to the baxtergolding.com server. This set of images starts with AJ thinking about creeping and winds up with him crawling and pulling to stand. He also has those two new teeth, but we haven't managed to get a photo of them yet! Jamie is becoming more self-aware and more self-conscious before the camera, reminding us of Calvin's school photos on occasion.

Tonight or tomorrow I'll update the Videos page as well; there's quite a backlog of little videos for me to sort through! But I'll get them up before we leave for Kemptville on Saturday. We're going up for another visit to Camp K'ville and Grandma's house, then going on to Toronto for a visit with Mamma Jane (who, rumour has it, will be bringing Jamie a LikeaBike! Oh boy!).

Later today I have to go and pick up my bike; we're having a bike seat put on it. Earlier in the week Jamie and I got bike helmets; he loved his and wouldn't take it off at first. He also got a soccer ball that day: a red-letter day all around for him!

I've been infected by a video game! Tom Leslie and Anne Macdonald got me started; blame them if you must. World of WarCraft...way fun, but a colossal time-eater. So I haven't blogged about our visit to Boston, our day-trip to Mystic or our visit to Toronto (where we saw many friends, and Jamie heard Mummy's voice in the speaker in the park near Hermione's house) and Kemptville (where AJ decided to start to crawl and cut his first two teeth).

We have a new dishwasher at last, and they finally (we think) fixed the gas oven so it won't leak gas when operating at low temperatures. I've joined a gym and am really, truly going to work out three times a week, even if I have to do it at 7am the way I did this morning. Last ten pounds of flab, you're out of here!

AJ's teething and having a hard time with it this week; he'll be waking up soon if he holds to pattern, and I should have been in bed over an hour ago, not assaulting Fenris Isle and killing Rot Hide Gnolls! (Don't ask, unless you have a lot of time on your hands.) Off to bed now.
