Pre-Trip

We seem to have dropped off the blogging world once again, but we're back!

Here's an update from before we left...

Aunt Tauna sent O the cutest Halloween shirt and I don't think I shared it on here. He loves it and still wears it all the time, even though Halloween is obviously over. Being a bat is totally acceptable any time of year, right?

We finally got O's last birthday present ordered and he loves it!

He was so excited about it that when he first got it he'd get up from bedtime and play in the dark. Later we'd find him fast asleep on his new mat.

A couple weeks before we left, O and I decided to make a playhouse out of a washing machine box we had. I cut out the doors and windows. O decided on the shapes of everything. He loves it! He calls it his house. Sometimes we decorate the outside or inside with markers and crayons. Sometimes he likes Dad or I to go in there with him. It's a tight squeeze, but he thinks it's so much fun! :)

The only surprise about his house was that we got it all fortified and then tried to put it in his room, and it didn't fit. So, now we have a playhouse living in our living room. Oh well, what do ya do?

Other than that, things were pretty quiet. We were just getting things ready for us to go on our trip to Idaho to meet baby Kirra and have fun with Nana and Papa Fisher and then to Washington to visit our family for Christmas.

Here's a picture from when we were packing and a silly video from about the same time.
