Raspberries!!!

The only thing raspberries are good for! He won't try them... He's a bit picky with food, but we're working on it. It's hard to believe he'll be two on Thursday, he's just not my baby anymore! We're having a party for him Saturday, with family and a few of his friends.
For those of you who live farther away and can't see Evan as often as you like... his vocabulary is growing very quickly, but it all sounds so much sweeter out of his mouth. He's good at making his needs known! He hasn't been on either soother or bottle for a while now, but after all that work, we decided to wait until after his 2nd birthday to work on potty training. In typical boy style he doesn't enjoy changes to his routines, but we're learning to ease him into new things.
In non-Evan news, we had an ultrasound last week and found out we should be expecting another boy!!! I'm pretty happy, I'd hoped for a friend for Evan and I'm not panicked about having a girl, we're still flexible on how many children we'll have. We'll see how we feel after this one. It's going to get really tight here in the house, so Scott's thinking of annexing a small part of the bsmt suite and making it his office. It'll be a mad house here when I'm off work again. We're expecting the new baby early December, so we'll have a larger family at Christmas! We also won't be doing any travelling as I don't want to do that with a fresh newborn - it'll be stressful enough planning Christmas and adapting to a 2-child family.
That's all the baby news for now. Scott's taking a break from studies for a semester and focusing on some changes at the Gate (including renovations and encouraging pastoral care amongst our regular attenders). I have finished my qualifying exam that will now allow me to write the AB exam for life insurance licensing - don't ask me why, I'll have very little life insurance selling to do, if any, although the way things are going at work it won't be that way for long. Once I'm done that I'll have to make sure I've got all the continuing ed credits I need to tide me over until I'm back at work Jan 2009... so I anticipate much studying in the next few months.
