A Long December

Well December has arrived and with it the first signs of winter... snow!! After all the waiting for Summer to arrive (which it never really did) Winter has snuck up on us. We went out this
morning with sunny skies and come home to snow just coming down by the buckets full. And it was not just your garden variety snow, no, this snow was the good stuff. The kind that snow forts and legendary snowball fights are made of. Jack was so excited, he kept chanting "snow, snow, snow" until we got dressed and marched out into the feathery whiteness. He wasted no time making his first snow angel. It was a blast. We were catching snowflakes on our tongues having snowball fights. Jack is one good shot with a snowball although he tends to aim low.. hehe

We are still awaiting the arrival of our baby girl. She is definitely very active and giving every indication that she will be here very soon. We are still undecided about her name. We will probably have to meet her first before one of our choices seems right. Our bags are packed, car seats in place and baby sitters eagerly awaiting. Just when we had gotten used to 8 hours of continuous sleep again. Oh well, as Lou Reed said "It's the beginning of a great adventure"... Happy Holidays!!
