Sloppy

It's been a while since I've posted, I know. We were in Ohio for the past week, visiting with Mike's family and having an early Christmas. His dad is going to be out of the country on business for the holiday, so we had to move things up a bit. It all worked out though--everyone was able to get together and celebrate.

Evan, as usual, got lots of cool presents. The big hit so far was an Aquadoodle, a big mat you put on the floor and draw on with water. He also got a train table, some books and another signing video. All good stuff. This weekend is going to be more of the same I suspect--I need to start making space in his play room!

Other than that, not much is up. It's been snowing and cold for a while now, and Evan hates it. Unlike last year, this year he is deathly afraid of the snow. He won't even walk to the car in it, or walk through a parking lot. If there's any snow in his field of vision, he expects to be carried. Guess we won't need the snow pants this year! Mike and I are breaking our backs hauling his 30 pound butt around though. I hope he gets over it or the winter is mild, but I'm not willing to bet on either.

We're taking it easy today and tomorrow before the big rush begins. We plan to hang out at home, and hopefully recover before the next round of excitement.
