Wow, December already?

Ok, so it's kind of a shock when you look at your blog and it says, "Last post July 10, 2008". Am I a loser? No, I think I would just say that I'm a stay at home mom who's had a really busy fall! Nothing like a mobile one year old to keep you on your toes.

Speaking of the 1 year old, she's walking, running, climbing (!), you name it. Except for that talking thing. She says "uh-oh" really well, "mama", "daddy", and a huge range of animal sounds (her elephant is a show-stopper). But nothing like sentences yet - at least not that we can understand. The jabbering is becoming more like words - Mom swears she said hippopotamus, I heard her say chocolate, and Travis heard "kicky feet". But getting her to say it again is another matter. Oh well - she's not quite 18 months old (that's next week), so I'm not too worried yet.

As for Travis & me, we're in the midst of remodeling the hall bathroom (getting ready to lay down tile on the countertop), I've had bronchitis & a cold for the last month, and we're just trying to keep up with housework! We had a great Thanksgiving visit with Bobby (he flew out from Cali), the weather is really nice right now (low 70s during the day), and we can't wait to see everyone again at Christmas.

Well, Lesley is asleep at the moment, but I don't think that will last... so I better get some laundry started. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the start of the holidays!
