Well, I can't believe it is almost Christmas...it came up so quickly this year. We have had a pretty good December so far. The kids have enjoyed the advent calendar that we are doing. Each day we have a piece of candy and on some days we have a family activity we are doing . For example on Monday we are going to get ice cream and drive around and look at Christmas lights, Tuesday we are going to make Christmas cookies and take them to some friends, Wednesday we are having a mini Christmas with our cousins Tanner and Tessa, Thursday we are going to the nursing home to visit our adopted resident, Friday is movie night and Saturday Santa is coming. Lots of fun activities that we are doing and the kids get so excited when there is a yellow activity paper in the advent calendar drawer.
Chloe has started potty training a little bit. She is so independent that she doesn't want me to help her at all. One day, she comes running out of the bathroom (no diaper on ) yelling, "I went poop in the toilet!" She was very proud of herself as were we. However, she hasn't pooped since, but peeing has been going pretty well. She is probably going to teach herself and that will be nice and easy for me. I took her picture, but Josh decided that we shouldn't post it...
I ran my half marathon today - no pictures - it was a very windy day, pretty gusty. I am not sure if I am making excuses, but the race was not a great one. I have never ran a race that I just felt yucky the whole race. I can't pinpoint what felt yucky, but it was just not a great race for me. I finished under 2 hours which was my ultimate goal, but I wanted to finish farther under 2 hours than I did. If you are a runner, you know what it is like to have a bad run. I just usually have bad runs at home, not in a race. Oh well, next time.....
We are heading up to Michigan on the 23rd, so we are excited about that. A long road trip is never fun, but we are excited to see my family and hopefully play in the snow.

Here are a couple of pictures just because I know it is more fun to see the pictures than to actually read the posts :)
