I finally managed to get all my account settings fixed on Blogger, so hopefully I will be back to posting here. I've been using myspace, but not everyone who wants to know what's going on with the family has accounts there, sooooo I will make this a place for updates as well.

So to start with a slide show of our day at the beach this Labor Day:

We all had an amazing time, even though we had to hike 1 1/2 mile to get to the beach, and the same back to the car.

Austin has started school, and having him gone all day is a change we are all getting used too. Colton seems to be thriving without big brother around to constantly pick on him and correct him for even the tiniest mistakes. I hope this helps Cole come into his own, and be ready for kindergarten next year.

We are officially done with diapers as well. Lily is doing fabulously in her new big girl panites. It is bittersweet, which sounds strange to some I know, but that was the last bit of babyhood left in our household. It seems strange after 6 years of doing the baby thing to be done and moving on.

Marc and I both have been busy with work, KT has him hoping, and I'm doing about 15 hours a week at Bombay now. I will keep up the hours for a month more, and then scale back once we know what kind of schedule Austin will have with school and cub scouts.

So that's us as we head into fall! Be well, laugh, and blessings to all.

Now if you aren't outraged go to a different blog!

After one of my friends read the above article she contacted Delta Airlines who partners with FreedomAir on the flight in question about their breastfeeding policy. They told her over the phone that the policy is that a mother may breastfeed her child if she does so "discreetly" and that judgement is left up to the flight attendents. UGH! Who has the right to decide if I am being discreet or not when I am feeding my child? Who I ask you who? The answer? ME!!!!

Currently a midwife I know is awaiting a written response containing Delta's offcial policy on breastfeeding during their flights. Once we have that I will post here and I will post a place where all of you can contact them and let them know what you think.

Let's not forget in a previous post I listed all the laws that are currently in affect for protecting a woman's right to feed her child. With that in mind remember that the state where the flight originates has jurisdiction over that flight with reguards to laws. So if any flight originates in a state protecting the woman's right to breastfeed then NO entity can limit that right without breatking the law.

Is it just me or will all of you be glad when this fight is over?

It's the first official leaf fight of Fall 2006! Not sure who won, but they sure did have fun. We have a giant oak next door that I am sure is going to completely fill our little back yard, so this is but the first of many many leafy moments for the Millers.
