November Wrap up

The Sunday after Thanksgiving we went to see the Lights at Temple Square.  Thankfully, the kids were quite warm and bundled up in the wagon! 

 We started doing a few more home improvement projects.  New blinds for Ben's room since the last ones were too short.  That's the problem with buying them at a second hand store.  What was written on the box (measurements) was not what was actually in the box.
Ben was being a good helper and McKenna took this picture and is enjoying learning how to use the camera.  And yes, Dan is using a tiny Ikea stool...to reach something...which he can already easily reach. The humor in this picture is not lost on him.

Immediately after that shot, she tried taking another picture but it slipped out of her hand. SOOO glad this picture still took.

We also started pulling off the chair rail and wall paper seen here in Ben's room and were getting excited and motivated to start doing some new texturing, painting, window trim, and even bead board in the kids' rooms to help get ready for the new baby.  Theeeen, our water heater died and put a screeching hault on all our planned projects... Oh well. Maybe in a few more months when we might have more funding.  

 Ben likes to play dress up.  :) Or McKenna likes to dress him up.  

Just playing with daddy

 Some pretty wicked bed-head.  And such a cute puffy sleepy face!

 Ben is still not talking at all but sure communicates well with his grunts and points.  He points to himself when ever he wants to go somewhere with you or if he wants a turn to do something.  

 He also has a shoe fetish.  These are my sister's adorable pink flats.  

Now on to some Christmas posts!
