Countdown

Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy. When Jonathan stayed with them a couple of weeks ago he took them to the park. It looks like they had a good time. He was over last night for dinner and then a few rounds of Hide & Seek in the house.
The main talk around our house is how many days it is until Christmas and how many days until Papa's birthday. Papa's birthday is the 24th, so of course they are anxiously awaiting it since Christmas is the next day. Maicol is the only one who has mentioned what gifts he would like. Both he and Juan want dress clothes - pants, shirt, tie, vest, etc. They really like to get dressed up to go to church. Juan just keeps asking how many days and Andres says "Santa Claus" every time he sees a picture of him. His vocabulary is expanding rapidly. He even put together a two word sentence last night, so his language is coming along quickly.
We are anxiously awaiting Bethany's arrival for Christmas break. She'll be home on friday. Juan is particularly interested in when she is coming, but I'm not sure why. I'm not sure he know either. :)
They had a hard time getting to sleep tonight. I came home from work right after Dan had put them to bed, so that didn't help. They had to get up and see me and were very talkative. It's never good when you put all three to bed at the same time. Too easy to get into trouble. We threated to have a no TV/computer day tomorrow, so we'll see if that helps.
Maicol and Juan Pablo tell me there is going to be snow on Saturday, so they are very excited. Hope the weatherman is right again. :)

No wonder they want to dress up. They are a handsome trio. I guess we don't neeeeed the snow, but will be glad for them if we get it. Grandpa just left for lunch at Scottish Rite. Love you all, Mom
