Well, I got a chance to relax last night but things are still pretty hectic. Too much to do. Hopefully I’ll be able to spend some more family time this weekend.
Working with my dad in GB is going pretty good. It seems like a nice place to work and the drive isn’t all that bad. Especially since my dad is driving :). It’s been somewhat fun to work with him too.
Got the painting done. Been working hard on that, now on to the trim and carpet.
Put G in underwear yesterday. Hopefully he’ll learn to go on the toilet quickly. He seems to have a lack of motivation so we’ll have to figure something out there.
The drywall in the basement is up and the joints are done and it is all textured and ready to paint. I love it when stuff gets done. I’m off of work for a couple days so I get to work on it too. Well, back to work.
These aren’t all the details but I really had an excellent weekend: Saturday, we had a party for my future bro-in-law, which was fun. I scored 1048 at Laser Tag. Sunday started off a little on the shaky side but turned out great. I have a friend who has been trying to figure out if following Jesus is the right thing to do for quite a while and he decided to become a Christian. Of course later on the Packer’s stunk the place up so I shut the game off after 3 quarters. Ugh.
Things are coming along nicely. Only one more coat of mud on the drywall should do it. We also got to painting the baby’s room too.
Well, the basement is coming along nicely. The drywall is all on and ready to be mudded. After that, it’s just carpet and trim :-). Exciting. I’ve been really blessed with people who are eager to help out. Thanks.
I’m a bit late but on Sunday G walked into the bathroom and shut the door and we’re thinking what’s he doing? So I went in there and he was standing next to the toilet with his pants down so I took his diaper off and he went! Of course, it’s not the first time so we’ll see if the pattern gets any better. Hopefully 🙂
Let’s see. Christmas was fun. Vacation was fun. We got a chance to spend a whole day with my mom’s side of the family, all in one house. Luckily it was quite large. We got to see the cousins from FL. G got quite a bit less sleep over that stretch so he got into a bad mood now and then but he’s catching up and we’re sure glad. Back to the old grind.
Howdy. We’re sitting here getting ready for our Christmas Eve family time. We have C’s family over here so we can spend some time together. Her parents are going to the hospital later to spend some time with a friend who was hit by a car and we’re going to be at our Christmas Eve service. We’ll be coming back to be with the extended family after that and celebrate Christmas.
Whoah! Well, what do you know. G is learning how to say the alphabet. He can get up to G or so on his own, which we’ll try to record for you.
The new baby is getting bigger all the time and the name game is going fairly well. I think C might be coming around to my favourite name. We’ll see.
We went to our first Christmas party last night. We played a few games and had a good time. One game was where you paste the name of an object to your back but you don’t know what it is, so you have to ask yes/no questions of other people to find out what the object is. Pretty fun but I didn’t figure mine out.
