craving protein last night i ve been eating too many carbs lately so i bought some beef yes i made sure marinated it in garlic mustard with a little balsamic and sauteed some squash salt pepp and pickled whole tomatoes made a salad of cukes tomatoes it was quite delicious the pickled tomatoes made the taste a little like german rouladin sp the only carbs were in the veggies and condiments i m fine with that feel so much better it s definitely something i would serve anyway e is great i know the fake cry now it s pretty pathetic he watched his playmate anya take her first real steps and sunday she was walking the stroller so we tried well we re not quite there but he s just about to let go of my hand he s getting more teeth posted by tasch at 12 31 am 2 comments saturday october 4 2008 october 4 2008 5 42pm 7 42am october 4 2008 little e fell asleep outside in the stroller the guy was sweating in his hat coat and 2 layers underneath under the hot sun who wouldn t want to sleep and be very still in those conditions i thought i d let him nap a little then take him in 15minutes early i didn t know how he d respond to me taking him out of the stroller all sleepy well he popped awake and played happily up through when i left what a happy guy i looked at some pictures of only a month ago and wow he s changed so much already the kid is coming into his own boyhood i love watching him come alive the caregivers were helping one of the girls learn to walk oh she was so excited yes this is why i chose kazakhstan sure it s still an orphanage but these ladies seem to really try and teach those kids to develop as normally as possible they are potty trained early know how to play with one another follow schedules they were all on the potty when i came in yesterday after meals after naps before bed first thing in the morning they do not use diapers and i have yet to see an accident of course i m sure they happen but i don t think very often well i m off to dinner at
