Late November Updates -




























































































As we prepare for Thanksgiving we remember just how much we have to be thankful for. Each day the boys are exploring their world in new and exciting ways. They love to color and be creative - at school, home and Sunday School and of course just running around being the very active boys that they are. They have three local parks that they love to go to and slide, swing, climb and play take out where we all order food from ADL and he fills the orders and makes change (think they go to drive through too much?).
We have come to the end of the cycle at the Y for swim class and gymnastics but both will start up again next week. ADL will be bumping up in his swim class to Pike II after he has shown great progress with his swimming -so exciting. Nino just loves to go to gym class and just run around in circles until he passes out from all the excitement. So much fun to have a special time with just him -
Auntie Chrissy visited us from the city and we treated her to an outing at "Chuck E Cheese." Yes Mama caved after hearing about this magical place form the commercials on the television that got ADL so excited. The place itself was fine and nicely divided between games for big kids and little ones so even though it was crowded it did not seem like they were getting stepped on. Inside there was a play area and of course games galore that they could participate in. They seemed to get it as a whole and collected tickets for prizes before we left (a rocket blaster that they absolutely loved). Chrissy was a real trooper and helped Mama follow the boys running around and smiled while we were eating literally the world's worst pizza ever. HA!
As we roar into Advent - we are trying to keep remembrance of what the holiday season is about - even though it is hard when they are so cute working on their Santa list and perusing the catalogs to make sure they have not misses anything - so much to look forward to. XOXO
