The kids have found a new passion....Skype. Avery and Scott now are constantly pestering us to let them log onto skype and talk with their family and friends. For those of you who don't know skype, you can log on and network with other skype members and talk via live video feed. The best part is it is absolutely free. The kids love seeing their cousins and loved ones back in Utah. It is a great way to keep in touch with everyone. Any rate, nothing new to report. Just living the dream. Scott continues to flex his intellect and constantly reminds Heidi and I that he is collectively more intelligent than the both of us. Just the other day, for instance, he proved this very point. For the last 3 months he has been asking about the baby and when it will arrive. He sees Heidi's belly grow but cant wait for the pay out of the new addition to our family. Due to his age and where we feel he is developmentally we have told him that the baby will come when it gets a little warmer. For a few months this satisfied his curiosity. However not to long ago he asked the question again about when the baby will come. We replied with our usual response of it will when it gets warmer. Scott sat and thought about it for a moment and then approached Heidi and said, "Mom will you just go turn up that heater so the baby will come out already". If only it were that simple. I guess trying to make things easier to understand by dumbing things down just tends to backfire in our faces. We can't keep up with his reasoning skills. Little bugger is only three and he is already smarter than the old man. I wonder what we will be in for in the future?

You have to love when you realize that your children are smarter than you! I must have been a dumb kid because I certainly did not know half of what they do today. Oh well, it keeps life interesting.
