Hamilton Happenings

Earlier today, Melissa posted a picture of Channing trying to drink straight from the jug (milk jug). I had come home for lunch and finished off the last couple sips. As soon as I put the cap back on, Channing had to have the jug. He immediately put it up to his mouth, lifted it up, and tilted his head back. Melissa says that I have to be careful in order to not teach him bad habits. But I see this as just laying the foundation. If I don't train him while young, how will I ever get him to do more awesome things - like a motorcycle rope swing ? I guess Melissa now knows the real reason I want to live in an area that has a lot of trees! But we'll have to work up to that. We were outside today. I recently bought a used lawn mower.

Who's excited that it's getting warmer?!  We are! At the beginning of the month my mom and dad came to stay for a few days.  It was fun to show them around our new town of Idaho Falls.  And Channing enjoyed lots of spoiling and fun. We made delicious fudge, played racquetball, walked around the greenbelt, I got the stomach flu and had to stay in my room all day, Channing got pushed around on his tractor by Papa more times than I can count, Channing learned about "lotion time" with Cici, Channing got held more than he ever does, he had french toast almost every morning, we all watched a lot of movies (mainly because it was very cold outside and I didn't feel good).  Cici and Papa...can you come back??!! Walk around Greenbelt Went to Gandolfo's for lunch.  Channing loved holding this cookie. Learned the art of fudge making from my mom. Good thing Channing and I are heading out to CA next week.  Channing has missed his Cici and Papa. What els
