Thanksgiving was nice. Lots of food, of course.
The day after Thanksgiving (which was on a Friday this year), I built a little wall to hold the door to my future basement stairs. That's been a project 2 years in the works. Well 1 yr and 11 months in the planning, 1 month in the works. Then we almost went to the hospital but Carla's contractions finally stopped.
Saturday, lots of running around. Carla really wanted to take the kids to Build-a-Bear. I had been dreaming of that day for oh so long and, finally, it was time! The kids had fun, although they were really tired, and I hardly complained at all. Walker got a dog, which he named Vixen (then changed his mind to Dancer, then finally settled on Vixen Dancer Kandel, although he usually calls him Vixen Kandel Dancer). Ellie got a bunny, which she named Hoppy:
Kurt: Is your bunny a boy bunny or a girl bunny?
Ellie: No, it's a Hoppy.
Kurt: I know, but is Hoppy a boy or a girl?
Ellie: No! Just a bunny!
Here they are stuffing their animals:
Ellie was too tired to stand on the pedal.
Posing with their new friends:
And Ellie "taking a bathtub" because I thought it was a cute picture:
Sunday: Sunday must have been relatively uneventful, because I don't remember much of it. The youth group placed their wagers on whether the baby would be a boy or a girl and how much it would weigh - not a minute too soon, either.
Monday: Well, I'll tell you later I guess . . . By the way, go to Jen's blog to see some professional pictures of Anderson. They came out really good.
