The kids are getting excited about Christmas! Well, Andrew is....Nathan doesn't really understand yet...he just can't leave the Christmas tree alone! He already broke one of the balls and took a bunch of ornaments off.

This is what Nathan and Julia were doing for awhile on Sunday....

Today Mike and Sheryl officially got married!! Then we went back to their place for some really good Greek food. The kids all had fun playing and running around together. Nathan loved that shopping cart...him and Julia kept doing laps through the kitchen and dining room. It was very loud as usual with the cousins all playing, but it didn't seem to bother Jacob!

I caught him singing half a song.....

Nathan loves to sing sometimes and other times he hates it.....

The babies all came back today to play! Andrew and Nathan had alot of fun with them.

Grammie and Grandpa came for dinner tonight and they are staying until tomorrow. Andrew is excited that they are having a "sleepover".

Last night we had our friends Andrew and Lisa over for dinner. We ordered in Thai food....it was really good!

Today we went to the mall. It was Santa's first day there so we got a picture taken with him...no line up! Nathan wasn't too sure of him....his lip started to quiver and he almost started crying, but he didn't.

Today my friends came over for lunch. Andrew loves being around all the babies!! So does Nathan...although Nathan is a little rough with them. He runs around while they are laying or crawling on the floor...just missing them! Andrew is more careful with them...he makes sure that they don't play with any toys that are small enough to swallow or toys that have sharp edges. Apparently everyone is coming back for lunch next Thursday!

Christmas is coming!

Yesterday we went to the mall with Grandma and Papa. Andrew and Nathan liked looking at all the Christmas decorations. Christmas is approaching quickly! Andrew is getting excited already...he asked me what would happen if we left the fireplace on and Santa came down the chimney. I said "That wouldn't be good...Santa would get burned". He said "Oh, we'll leave it off then".

Weekend...

Didn't do too much this weekend. Bob took Andrew skating on Saturday. Andrew is starting to improve...and he really enjoys it. We'll sign him up for Parent and Tot skating lessons in January. Today we went to Grandma and Papa's for a visit and a swim. Nathan seemed to like the water this time. Andrew is exhausted...he went to sleep tonight on the way home...that was at 6:00! I'm sure he'll sleep right through to the morning.

Nathan being silly as usual...
Anne and Jamie came over for a visit today.
Cute baby Jacob...who is a big boy and looks much older than 2 days old!

Bob and the kids went up to Grammie and Grandpa's on the weekend. They had quite a bit of snow up there! The kids loved it!
I spent the weekend with girlfriends. We went downtown to a spa, then out for dinner, then stayed overnight at a hotel. Lots of fun!

Halloween!

The kids had a great time last night. It was a long day for me though because ever since 9:00 in the morning, Andrew kept asking me when it was going to get dark! Andrew was Batman for about half an hour, came home and dropped off his loot, then went back out as a giraffe! They were both exhausted afterwards.
