train em young

We here in the Starting family believe that children should be at least pulling their own weight by the age of 18 months (which is a lot of weight in Ben's case!).

Actually, we just found him doing this. I also found the following pictures on my camera, courtesy of Luke. Not exactly sure when he figured the camera out....

And lastly, as an update on Em: she is still doing great. No complaints. She showed me today that she can crawl in and out of her wheelchair and up and down from the toilet by herself. So much for all the "necessary" lifting I've done over the last two weeks!
