as summer comes to an end

the last weeks of summer have been busy... we went to the McLeod county fair, met up with Dad and Joanie at Flandrau state park, took the kids to daycare so Seth and I could go to the State Fair, had Seth's sister and cousins come over to help us paint the Biscay house and then attempted our long planned "tequila party", and spent labor day at my mom's house.  Ben now has 4 teeth and is crawling like crazy.  he uses one knee and one foot.  pretty cute.  he is also sleeping through the night now (finally!)  Eleanor is doing ok with the potty training.  still needs some work but it is going better than it was.  Eleanor told me she wanted her hair cut "like Woody's"  so we had my mom cut her hair on labor day  and we tell her she looks just like Woody now. 

                                                  She's been into playing doctor lately.
