Gung Hay Fat Choy!!

Gung Hay Fat Choy!!!

Happy Chinese New Year!!

It is the year of the Ox. We celebrated by making dragons, reading books about Chinese New Years and we'll have a Chinese dinner one night this week.

Unfortunately, Josh has not been himself the last couple of days. He has been overly tired, running a low grad temp off and on, and isn't eating well. We think that it is his 2 year molars bothering him.
Matt starts is Hazardous Materials class tonight, I think. The weather is bad and I'm not sure if C-9 will cancel classes or not. On Sunday we had a fish fry with Matt's parents and bunch of friends. That was a lot of fun to sit and talk with everyone.
We are gearing up for next week. On Thursday February 6th, Matt, Mom, Dad and I are watching Alex and Marianna for five days. It should be a fun experience to go from having one kid to three just like that. I'll let you know if I survive on Thursday because I'll have all three kids by myself. If no one hears from me in 24 hours please, please come looking for me. We do have some fun things planned like taking the kids to the Children's Museum.

Josh is riding his giant fire truck he received for Christmas. Sometimes his animals ride the fire truck with him.


Here we are making our dragons for Chinese New Year.

Josh was making lots of growling noises. It's a dragon of course.



Josh is picking out which one he wants to make for grandma and grandpa.
The only other thing going on is trying to get a head count of how many rooms we need for our reunion in July. We can't wait to see all our friends and Josh's girlfriends.
Oh, a couple of other things about Josh I forgot. First, Josh is giving his favorite stuffed animals, lambie and puppy, food and toys to play with. Also, Josh said "I Love You" for the first time this week. I was changing him in the morning and he gave me a big hug and said "I love you mommy." That just melted my heart.
