Here's a few updates from our side of the world:
Nathan is crawling! And it doesn't seem it will be long before he's up on his feet. Uh-oh! And he has 6 teeth.
We've started taking a new language class. Well, not a new language, just going to a different place for class. We have 3 different teachers. Mark is going 3 times a week, and I'm going 2 times a week. We're reviewing the basics and learning some fun things like proverbs and old sayings. Don't ask me if I remember any of them at the moment!
We celebrated Thanksgiving with a group of friends. We're all scattered among 3 different cities, so we chose one and all got together for turkey, chicken, carrot souffle, dressing, pumpkin pie, hot apple cider, mashed potatoes, etc. And we got the Christmas season off to a great start with some Christmas carols accompanied by our friend's piano. That was a special treat! Nathan got carried around all day by the girls in the group. They're all from 7 - 12 years old, and it was the coolest thing to have a real baby to play house with!
The weather is beginning to feel like winter, and the sun has been hiding its face for the past few days.
And our biggest news . . . we leave tomorrow morning for 3 weeks in the States! Yahoo!!! Nathan's done quite a bit of traveling in his short life, but none like this! We're so excited about him getting to meet all of his aunts and uncles and cousins and grandparents and great-grandparents and great-great-grandmother.
Here's a few pictures for you to enjoy. Hopefully, it won't be this long until we post the next time! Love to you all, and MERRY CHRISTMAS!
