It's Winter!

To commemorate the start of December, the weather gods apparently decided we needed about 4 inches of snow. It started yesterday afternoon and didn't really stop until early afternoon today. Sully just kept looking out the window and saying, "ooohh..." So since I had to scrape my car off (rather, I had to shovel the heaps of snow off of it), I bundled Sully up in his warm winter clothes, plunked him into his new wagon, and pulled him into the driveway where he sat and watched me clean off the car. I didn't get as many "oooohs" as the window, but he was still pretty captivated by the whole winter wonderland around him. He also had a good time watching Drogo jump and dig in the snow. So even though I am not ready for it to be winter (although it's looking like I don't have much of a choice), I think there will be some fun times ahead with my little snow bunny!

I also wanted to show off how handsome my boys were on Thanksgiving. They sort of had matching outfits - unintentional, I swear! We had fun at my aunt and uncle's house in Crown Point, IN and Sully was a good boy all day. Although he needs to work on pacing himself - he kept asking for more bread and snacks before dinner (he has gotten really good at the sign language for more) so by the time we all sat down for turkey he wasn't hungry and refused to eat anything! Mysteriously, once the pie came out he was ready for "more" again!

In this picture Sully was watching Uncle Dave carve the turkey. Every time the electric knife was going Sully got that goofy look on his face like he was trying to figure out what the heck was happening! He's a funny little man!

That's about it - although hopefully there will be news on the walking front soon. On Saturday Sully took 2 independent steps before lunging toward Mark, and he stood alone for a good 10 seconds today. But he is still pretty lazy - or maybe just scared. He'd still rather just crawl everywhere than even attempt to walk. We'll keep you posted!
