November

It's been awhile since my last post and it seems a bit silly to post Halloween pictures as we approach Christmas, but these are about all of the pictures I have from the last month.

November went quickly as we were busy with work and other activities. Jenny is continuing to enjoy school. We had parent/teacher conferences and the teacher says she is a good listener and she has a good vocabulary. Andrew's vocabulary is slowly growing and he is doing a pretty good job of copying sounds, not necessarily words.

We had a nice Thanksgiving. Jay's oldest sister hosted some of the family, and that included Steve and Alyona. We had a nice time and an excellent meal. After dessert we headed to a waterpark to spend the remainder of the weekend relaxing and swimming with Jay's family. Jenny liked swimming in the pool, she didn't really like the slides yet. Andrew wanted nothing to do with the waterpark. Maybe next year they will be a little more adventurous.

About 3 months ago Jay and I began P90X. For those of you who are not familiar with this term, it is a fairly intensive workout regimen - six workouts a week ranging from an hour to an hour and half. We are 5 workouts away from being P90X "grads". We're proud to say we have not missed a single workout. Jay's results have been more impressive than mine, but we are definitely in better shape than when we started.

We're looking forward to Christmas and some more time with family.
