The Latest

We have been so busy with so many different things, it makes my head spin, but here are a few…

Last Thursday, I got the Christmas bug. As soon as I got off work, I put on the Christmas music. Aiden and I wrapped presents and danced around to the music. When Isaac got home, he very graciously indulged me and put up the tree. We scattered our Christmas decorations all around the front rooms. On Friday, we decorated the tree and put the presents underneath. Aiden LOVED it, and he has left the tree alone since that day; I’m pretty surprised he isn’t pulling ornaments off.

Aiden’s first ornament… and mine.

We are both still taking classes and working full-time. Aiden is still in love with cars, but his love now extends to trains and fish. He can name starfish, jellyfish, sharks, and seahorses. Mostly, I have been consumed with this for the past week:

yearbook

We have our first yearbook deadline on Monday. The perfectionist in me wants to fine tune every little detail and kill the students who mess up my work. The professional part of me tries to remember that this is a student publication, and I keep my interference to a minimum. This weekend, it’s up to me to get everything ready for our submission party on Monday though… wish me luck!

I can see the sibling resemblance between Aiden and Sophie... or, uh, between Sophie and the puppy on Aiden's shirt? :) I love the side-by-side photos of them. They're cute. Also, I find it funny that of the two of them, Sophie is the one looking at the camera. Funny dog.

Yay Christmas decorations!!

Ha, you know Sophie just sat there and stared at me because I told her to, whereas AIDEN would NOT sit there until after Sophie, and then he jumped up and said "my turn!"
