Getting close to Christmas

Wow, I don't think I've ever waited so long to blog, but Christmas has a way of keeping us all busy, huh?! A couple of tidbits:
Arianna is thrilled with being done with naps. She has become my shadow and is such a great helper. Most recently she helped me finish up the stockings that I was making for my sister's family. She loved to stitch the names on with me and got really proficient at it too.


Enzo has his own way of being grown up. At the Clinger family Christmas Eve get together (which had to be held a week early this year) Marco and I were wondering where Enzo had disappeared to. Marco found him first and called me in and this is what I found:

He had made his way up to the table where someone had left an uneaten piece of pie. He decided to take advantage. He was covered in raspberry from head to...well, only fingertip and was in heaven! He sure is his own lead. Quite a go-getter.

That evening we also acted out the nativity. Enzo was a lamb again because he REFUSED to where a shepherd costume for some reason. Arianna was a King again and came bearing gifts. We enjoyed the presentation and loved the company.

You have good reason to not be blogging! I can't believe that you are having a ton of contractions. It's probably because you were just telling me that you don't even know what it's like...ha, ha, ha...now you know! I'm sorry! It really does make life a little more difficult and scary. Luckily, you are ALMOST there. I can't believe how close you are. I still have WAY too much time. Let me know what happens. I'm not very helpful right now either, but it's nice to have someone to talk to!

How fun. It sounds like you had a great time. Enzo sounds like my kind of kid, I love raspberry pie!

Cute Pics! I saw you guys on Carrie's blog & thought I'd put in my 2 cents. Arianna,-Of Course-makes a great King!
