This Thanksgiving I am going to play a duet with Melanie, and my mom is going to accompany us. I have not seriously played my violin in 7 years, which is so sad to admit, but I wanted to "show off" for Josh because he has never heard me play. I also thought this was going to be an excellent moment to interact with Preston and show that his mommy can do something musical. Also music can make a baby smarter right? So I waited until he woke up to play the violin. Right when I started playing he had the biggest frown. I comforted him and then started to play... Again he gave me the biggest frown. WHAT??? I thought I played well or I should say I sound appealing to some ears. Well, if you are in the audience come Thanksgiving at church please don't frown at me when playing the violin.

IDAHO..... What more can I say? 

Josh wanted to make Preston into Friar Tuck for Halloween... Well, his hair didn't last till Halloween Day.  Darn because he would have been such a cute little monk.. He was starting to bald on top PLUS he was bald in back from rubbing his head in the back so his hair had to go.  Now I am obsessing that his head is a bit flat since I can finally see the shape of his head. I can now see the plus side of having a bald baby.  It is just like having a new baby because he looks so different, but still just as cute! We are all battling Preston's earache.  ARGH!! It is so hard because I am lacking my sleep. It is now where I realize that I nor Josh nor Preston is sleeping well. Poor little man... the doctor gave an antibiotic and told us to give tylenol and a pat on the back and good luck. We are managing!!

We did our family pictures. Whew!! I so tired after 1/2 hour of taking pictures. Preston tried to do his best, but he was so tired and a bit aggravated that we wouldn't let him go to sleep. In the end the pictures of Preston turned out fantastic, and I am very impressed with our photographer.
