2016 :: 49/52

the beginning of this week was cold and spent inside, not doing too much trying to keep Trevor from catching whatever his body & fevers were trying to fight off. we did some crafts, watched some Christmas movies and played. by Wednesday the fevers were gone and he just had a cough.

Thursday morning we went to the children's museum with Jodi, chloe, Easton, baby graham, Jodi's brother josh, and jake and kade come too. Trevor had lots of fun and mostly just played with Easton. he did 3 crafts downstairs in the crafting area including sand painting, which he did really well with. we left just before noon and I got a parking ticket. :( we came home and had lunch then did nap. after nap, we played until close to dark then packed up with all our winter gear and went to Irvine park to walk around all the Christmas lights. last year when we went, it was raining, so this year, although cold, was great! we didn't make it thru the whole park, but the lights and trees were beautiful. we then went to dinner at Chippewa family restaurant which was delicious and cheap! yay!

Friday morning, our house inspector, who's also a contractor, came over to check out why our bedrooms are so cold. he pretty much just confirmed our thoughts that our windows are old/horrible and the rooms are the furthest from the furnace. so we are going to plastic our bedroom windows, put a small infrared space heater in Trevor's room and save for new windows! we ran to menards to get a space heater for Trevor's room then came home and the Al and T played downstairs while I sewed some Christmas gifts. as of last weekend i'm done shopping for Christmas gifts, just have a couple more to make/get done! during nap, I ran to joann and a return at target and it was so busy! we're going to try to avoid going out/shopping until after Christmas. :) Al took a nap while Trevor did.

Saturday morning, all 3 of us drove up to mom's house. we made cookies in the morning and then the 3 of us went to the brown Christmas (my dad/grama's extended side) which was fun, everyone loved seeing Trevor of course. it started snowing while we were there (we ended up with more than 6 inches). after a couple hours we drove back to mom's house quick then went to shane and Jodi's house. Trevor slept almost the whole way to their house in the car; he hasn't slept in the car in like a year! Trevor and Luke had lots of fun playing, we ate dinner there, and then headed back to mom's house to sleep.

sunday morning we went outside to shovel and play in the snow then at 11 I went to my softball ladies friend nancy's birthday party with manda. Trevor had a bath, lunch and nap with nana and Al. once I got home about 3ish we packed up and drove home. most of the snow was off the highways so the driving was slow but ok. once home we unpacked quick, Al shoveled the driveway quick (our neighbor mark must have snow blowed our driveway at some point!) and we went to the neighb's house to watch the end of the packer game and have supper.

Monday morning Trevor and I ate breakfast, did some crafts & cleaning, then went outside to shovel and play in the snow.
