  the run up to Christmas
Tim with his birthday present from Phil
Hi all,
Well its been getting busy in the run up to Christmas, but I thought I would give you all a quick update before I disappear for a week or 2.
Jamin's words are increasing - although often they all kinda sound the same - but mixed with signs he manages to get the message across to us most of the time. He is also eating like its going out of fashion about half an hour after we feed him he will come up to us signing for food!!

Ethan is playing well with Jamin right now. Favourite game of the hour is fox and rabbit - where Ethan is the fox and chases Jamin (on all fours) Jamin thinks its a hoot! We don't know where he came up with the idea - as we didn't teach it to him??

The TV has decided to die - for no apparent reason it now takes 30 minutes or so to warm up during that half hour the picture is black and white and ghosting. This wouldn't be such a huge deal except that a) we just started paying for satellite because terrestrial reception was so bad for us. b) Rachelle needs somewhere to put the boys for 10 minutes to clean up after Jamin!

which leads to something else - Jamin has developed the habit of unpacking EVERYTHING you leave him anywhere & he will empty everything out of cupboards and draws that he can open!

Finally last night I had a surprise Birthday Party - Rachelle organised it for me not a huge event but it was fun to have a bunch of our friends over for the evening - they all brought their kids and they played well by themselves with a relatively small amount of tears. I got beer & wine - hmm what does that say about me??

hope you all have fun this week - and I will try and keep you up to date on the events of Christmas - but I probably won't be around the computer much to be able to do so.

  Thanksgiving
Hi all,
well it's been a while so I guess I need to bring you all up to date. I have been informing anyone who will stand still long enough that England won the world cup - obviously 99 percent of the people either didn't know that the RWC was even taking place or if I had already informed them of that fact, didn't know that it was now over ;-).

Jamin is now signing/talking - kinda
he can ask for milk, and knows how to tell us when he has had enough. He also says dogs (he loves them!!)

For those of you who didn't know last week was thanksgiving - and we hosted!! Rachelle was nervous initially, but was fine by the time the event rolled round. She roasted her first Turkey & I thought it was excellent - she thought though that it was just a tad overdone and dry. to see some pictures of the event go here

May God bless you all during this holiday season - and don't forget that Jesus is the reason for it!! (I know that I forget that fact often enough that being reminded doesn't hurt!!)
