It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!

Happy December!! We arrived here so fast, it's amazing! Well we have not succumbed and put our tree up yet (the family rule is that it can't happen until after Oliver's birthday, which is this Friday!) but it is very cold and we have snoooooooooooooooooow!

Zah now sits up well by himself and Oliver is saying more and more, things like "Close a door!" or "Oliver's green bowl!" or "More muuuush!" (mush is weetabix, by the way- Oliver has two a morning and still begs for more, while Zach has about 3/4s of one). Ben is working hard and busy at church too, helping with the youth program (activites on Tuesday evenings, lessons on Sundays).

As for me, the exciting news is that I have new slippers! The last pair died a death and I continued to wear them for months, and they were getting a health hazard! The replacement pair are VERY ugly- a cross between a dead hairy cat and a dead furry bird... but they are very snuggly and warm!!

It is a wonderful time of year! Here are some of our getting-in-the-mood recent happenings:
