We actually got a little dusting of snow here yesterday. Apparently a lot of places are experiencing this "major" cold front and our parents in California may even actually get snow today. Eli was really excited and kept asking when we could go out and make a snowman. Uh...sorry buddy, there's not that much snow.
Anna is also over 9 months old now! She's been out longer than she was in. Here is what she's up to right now:
- She has figured out how to pull the plug protectors out of all the outlets and she goes around taking them out and putting them in her mouth. The other day I came into the living room to see the boys pretty much wrestling her to get one out of her mouth - they were trying to "protect" her. Awesome.
- She has figured out how to open drawers and cupboards and now loves taking everything out in the kitchen.
- She also has successfully taken off about half of the bows on our presents under the tree and she gazes at the lights with intense fascination.
- Her favorite spot to hang out is under the kitchen table - she's like a puppy waiting for someone to drop something (it doesn't take long).
- Anna has been cruising around the furniture for a long time and recently started letting go and standing for a few seconds at a time! We're afraid she may be walking by Christmas.
- She smiles with her tongue out constantly.
- She sort of waves sometimes now. She'll at least hold her hand out when you wave to her. It's very cute.
- She loves to eat everything - food and non-food.
- She loves her brothers and loves to play with them. She gets so sad when they go in their room and close the door to play legos. She sits in the hallway and hits the door and cries. :(
She really is a happy baby and we all love her so much! She is wearing me out a little bit lately with everything she's into, but she is also getting to be so much fun. Her little personality is coming out and it's fun to see. I can't believe she'll be one in less than 3 months!

A little snow sounds fun! Anna sounds adorable and busy, and all those pies looked fabulous!
I loved spending time with you at Thanksgiving! Your kids are so much fun and that little Anna is adorable! We are excited to see you again at Christmas!
We had a great time with you on Thanksgiving! Thanks again for making the effort to come. I am so sorry about your heater. It is no fun to come home from a trip and find your heater is broken! That has happened to us as well. That is a nice thing about renting, though! THe landlord has to take care of it. Looking forward to watching your elf "fun" when we get a computer!
