Happy New Year

It's been awhile since we posted. We had Thanksgiving at our house this year. JT hung out with his cousins Taliya and his new cousin Alani. Towards the end of the night, JT was cranky so I turned on a Genesis concert we have taped on TV. As he watched, he was anticipating all of Phil Collins' moves. My cousin Mike was very freaked out by the whole thing. Stay tuned for a video of his dancing and hand movements. We will post that soon. He watches this concert everyday at lunch. He has the whole thing memorized and we think he may be a musical genius! Just so you know, this is the only TV he gets to watch.

We then celebrated Christmahanukwanza for the 5th time this year. We got together with Nicole and Mike, had brunch and exchanged gifts. JT loves the chainsaw Gavin got for him!

As we head into the New Year, JT is in many activities. He continues to go to the Little Gym on Wednesday nights. He will move up to the next age group and rejoin his friends Gavin and Parker for the 6:15pm class. He has soccer practice from 9-10am and swim lessons from 11:30-12:00pm on Saturday mornings. Yesterday was his first Saturday of this and he had a well deserved 3 1/2 hour nap when we came home.

I have a new job. I am now a Pampered Chef consultant. Funny, since I don't cook. I paid $150 and got $500 worth of supplies and figured if I can make some extra cash and hang out at parties, it will be worth it. I have my first party with school friends at the end of the month that I am hosting. If you want to host, let me know. You get lots of free stuff and it doesn't cost you a thing.

As for adoption stuff... we sit and wait and will continue to do so for a long. We hope by this time next year we will have a referral.

Stay tuned for the dancing video. Enjoy the pictures. Lately, JT is a little obsessed with his work goggles and enjoys sitting in boxes and sharing his snacks with Zues and Tzeli.
