climb to conquer cancer

Jim and Britton went up to Flagstaff last weekend to do a 7 mile walk/hike up the mountain to raise $$ for the fight against cancer. Jim works for APS and they are very involved in the community. They sponsor several different organizations and are actively involved in donating time and $ to the red cross, schools etc. Jim writes communications for APS and did interviews while on the hike and wrote a column about the event. Britton raised $ to donate.

no autographs please!

My baby is getting so big! He is keeping up with his big brother Jack and copies EVERYTHING he does. Nolan's vocabulary amazes me! It is limitless.
He is becoming quite the little daredevil I'm afraid. He climbs up onto counters and tables and into the toilets and sinks. Child proof locks don't even slow him down at all! We had to turn Britton's and the bathroom door knobs around so we can keep them locked from the inside. He has been getting into Britton's room were the 2 guinea pigs are and climbing into the cage and trying to catch them. I hear the poor things squealing from across the house and have to come to the rescue (about 72 times a day until we turned the locks inside out). Britton has a loft bed 8 feet high which Jack has already fallen off of and landed on his head sending us on a very scary ambulance ride to the hospital. Nolan threw the worlds biggest fit when he couldn't get in the room anymore. He says "I want the bibby pibs, peeeesss mommeeee peeeeesss!" so sad. half of my day has been spent taking them out into the front room so Nolan and Jack can feed them carrots.
