Just a quick post to say that we're all doing well! The brush clearing project is moving along pretty smoothly. We've thrown away two dumspter-fuls of brush already, and have about 2 more loads to be thrown away.
Our yard is looking really good! I think we'll make our deadline of Dec. 21st, thankfully, but we'll be working up to the bell. I'll have to post some pictures of the finished product.
Here are some recent pictures -- Peter eating his first food (carrots -- so far he hasn't been too impressed with solid food)!, and our nativity scene in the front yard.
In closing, a couple of random observations...
-- How is it that a baby can make "Mom, are you trying to poison me?!?" faces when I try to feed him things like carrots, apples, and sweet potatoes, and yet he spends all day trying to put his feet in his mouth? Can his feet taste *that* much better?! Maybe I should invent a "foot flavored" line of baby food and make a gazillion dollars :).
-- I never knew my kids could sing Gospel, that is, until we listened to Tiemyer McCain's rendition of "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" on Poppi's Christmas music CD for the 100th time (it's their favorite Christmas CD) and they both started singing along in full Gospel style! (including the 7 or 8 syllable stretch on "Emmanuel" and "Israel"!) It was hilarious and quite impressive!!

Love it all!
I'm glad your brush clearing project is coming along. We miss you too! We can't wait to see you again!
Peter looks so cute in the pictures, though his cheeks look pretty rosy in the second one...have you been putting a touch of scotch in his carrots? He has the glow of a person who has been drinking!! But Peter also looks a lot like Thomas in these pictures too. He is growing up so fast!
I HAVE to hear the gospel choir sing! haha...I love these boys!
Wonderful!!
I really like that "foot flavored baby food". I sure can understand your challenge. Everything goes into the mouth, how can he balk at something like carrots. Too cute!!
It sounds like you have done so much work in the back yard. We can't wait to see all the fruits of your labor.
I agree with Kim, Pees does look like Thomas in those pictures.
Can't wait to see everyone during Christmas.
Love you all bunches!
Nice to see a new post on here.
Peter is getting so big. I love the picture of him with his hand up to his face. So cute!! He does look a little like Thomas.
