We all continue to do well here at the Campbell household. We've been healthy, the number of cardboard boxes in the house is slowly decreasing, and life is moving forward. We've registered at what seems to be a lovely parish here, and we are starting to meet people and put down roots. It is such a relief to know that we can get involved and become invested in this community beyond just 6 months!
There is definitely less free time now than there used to be (at least for me), but I can say that although I am busier and more tired than I would like, I am very happy. It seems like I literally have to move very quickly during the day to get things done in a timely manner, i.e. dashing between the fridge and pantry for speed cooking, hussle cleaning, running up and down the stairs for items, etc. but it works and by the grace of God I have the energy for it.
Davy is charming us all with his big smiles and adorable coos. His smiles are hard to capture on camera, but one of these days I'll get a good shot and post it. The boys love making him smile! I am so grateful for the gift of siblings (well, except for when they try and kill each other, but you get the idea).
The older boys entertain me with their boyness. A continuing mealtime debate here is who is the better superhero -- Spiderman or Superman? And what would happen if Superman and Darth Vader fought each other? The boys don't help cook, they excavate the flour and sugar with the measuring cups. They don't draw pictures of people and houses and flowers -- they draw tank fights and fighter jet battles. They don't play house -- they invent a land called Janada (Japan + Canada) that grows kryptonite and makes it into sandwiches in case Superman comes around (they are decidedly anti-Superman in Janada). It's all a little foreign to me, but I am greatly amused by the way their minds work!
Anyway, my time on the computer is up, but I hope to post more pictures of all the boys soon!
