Updates....

It hasn't been a very exciting few weeks, just busy, busy, busy. We're finally getting busy at work and I've been able to get a few extra shifts and I'm hoping to get a few more before the baby comes. Here are a few pictures of my growing belly..... only about 6 more weeks to go!


We're trying to do a lot of Christmas activities this year. Last week we went to the Tempe Festival of Lights parade (it was kind of lame) but the kids got to see Santa and fireworks. Yesterday, the boys went to the Gilbert tree lighting and had a good time. We've already decorated our Christmas tree and put up our Christmas lights inside and out. Derek's beginning to wonder about this whole Santa thing.... he asked why sometimes Santa has a gray beard and sometimes he has a white beard? Don't have any pics of the parade or Christmas stuff yet, but here's the kids at the park the other day.





Paige is pretty much 100% potty trained!!!!! Yeah!!!!! Kevin is doing good, but still hasn't mastered the number 2 in the potty thing. She's talking so good now - a few weeks ago, I was resting on her chair, and she said, "don't sit on my chair Joy, you're too big". Kevin's hanging in there with the talking and hopefully he'll pick it up more in the next few months. Derek is still learning so much at school and loving it!


Our latest project is our hall bathroom. It's the last big thing we wanted to do with our house, so that's what he spent our day doing today. I must not really know how to measure things, because we had enough tile left over from the other bathroom to complete the hall bathroom! We've got everything cut and now just have to lay it down and grout it.
