Well... it happened.

Cameron was at least shown how to open his bedroom door.  Nate?  No.  He figured it out on his own.

At 7 in the morning.

I thought I heard footsteps in the hall, so I checked on Cam - nope.  He was still in his bed.  Michelle got up to look down the hall and found a small little boy slowly creeping down the stairs.

Oh well.  We will miss the by-gone days of them staying where they were put.  It wasn't all too long ago he wasn't able to walk or even crawl.  So, if we put him on the floor, we knew he would be there for a while.

Fairwell peaceful nap time!

Fairwell restfull night sleep!

Is it wrong to put locks on their doors?   Hmmmm.....

It's amazing how quickly time passes.  It just seems like a few months ago Cameron went into his own bed and Nate went into the crib.

Tonight, both boys are in new beds.  Cameron is in a full sized single and Nate has his Cam's old Lightning McQueen bed.

 

 

Nate has been stubbornly gnawing at his food without teeth for too long.  He has finally broken his first tooth - at nearly 20 months old, this kid just doesn't like to do things normally.

With all of his health problems, we've been cautious about the lack of teeth, but his development has been delayed, so this could just be another delay.  We were told not to worry until he was two, xrays showed he had them, so not to worry.

Well, he's got his first tooth.  Hope the rest are on their way.

Last friday I picked up a gum ball machine for Michelle.  It needed (still needs actually) locks for each of the three units.  They don't hold together unless they are locked down.

To make them work, I manufactured a double-sided long nut to screw into the mounting pole and screw the lids into.

Short story long... we now have working gum ball machines!!  

uhhhh...... what do we do with them?
