We've been so busy lately.. I always say that, but in the past two months, we've moved out of our house into a new house. Alex and I have been working a million hours, and I was out of town for a good chunk of a week, and then we've had to continue with daily life, like trying to hang out with Solomon for at least a few hours every night. November is always a crazy time of the year work wise. I always look forward to Thanksgiving when it seems to let up some . Oh yeah, and we always have the bar to keep us busy.. all of the stupid permits and licenses that I swear are made up to create jobs are due at this time of the year. You've probably never stepped into a bar and realized just how many forms and licenses are required for the doors to remain open. It's really ridiculous. Never a slow moment around here. We do love our new house and are excited to spend the holidays in it (and maybe finally get it arranged the way we want it). I don't think we're going to travel anywhere this year and we're very excited about that! Yea! We can get some much needed relaxation.
Just a few highlights since September.. Our little guy was easily the cutest fire fighter ever on Halloween. We went to a nearby fire station and they pulled an engine out and let him climb all over it. He loved it and looked so sweet in his little costume. He talked about that forever.
Alex took the following picture in our backyard just before we moved. It's pretty cute and shows off our little boy's goofy side pretty well.
We've been taking Solomon to "micro basketball" at the YMCA. He might be a little young for it as his focus is more out than in, but he likes to pass and he likes it when I play keep away. He also likes to lick the ball! Gross, but what do you do? He's three, not exactly ready for the NBA!
We have had so many friends have babies lately.. I think we know of five babies in the last two months. That's more than we've seen in years at the same time... Pretty cool to hold all of these little ones. I've been thinking about our friends Ben and Melissa a lot lately. They had Ronin a few weeks ago. He's still in the NICU as he decided to come a bit too early. We hope he gets out soon. We are hosting Thanksgiving in a few days! I can't wait. It should be a lot of fun. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving.
