Warm day

The temp here was in the 50's today. Will it ever snow by Christmas???

Hayden hung out in his pj's most of the day. He is a little cranky, I am assuming because of his tooth. He played on the floor and in his exersaucer. He sat in his swing for a bit. He doesn't like his swing as much anymore. He rarely will fall asleep in it. A month ago I would of never thought that would be possible. He lived in the swing the first few months! Now he likes to take naps in his crib. That was rarely the case before. Guess that is part of growing up.

I talked to Ingrid today. Their car arrived and Andrew passed his drivers test. He drove the car today and they got European licence plates. Ingrid went on a tour of the town with a group from the Army. They offer a class to learn about customs and German culture. She had fun seeing the sights. Ingrid is taking her driving test soon and they move into their apartment Tuesday. They get their first load of belongings Monday and the last load the first of January. Ingrid is hoping she sent the things she needs the most in the first load.

They checked out plane tickets to Paris from their place. $40 each. They are thinking of going there for Christmas. How neat would that be??!!?? I helped Ingrid research car navigation systems. They are going to buy one because she feels it would help her navigate the unfamiliar territory and she says they sign the roads terrible there.

My friend Teresa came over and dropped of a Christmas tree, lights and all the decorations she had for it. She doesn't feel like putting up multiple trees up anymore. She and her husband are downsizing now that they are empty nesters so we are happy to help them out and take some of their things!!
