Long time no write...

I know, I know and yes, Tian has changed a lot since October, bt once we found the computer we had to find the mouse and once we found the mous we had to find the keyboard,and once we found all that,where was the camera, the passwos to add to the blog etc, etc?.. you get the picture.

We are in our new "home," but hardly settled. We will probably be in boxes for months to come... Tian is a great help and has mastered the skill of dumping faster than any child in the world ( Yes, I am sure) She can also climb and get in precarious situations quite masterfully and even on occasion has been caught running with scissors. She is a woman of extremes and keeps us on our toes day and night. It would be difficult if she weren't so darn happy and cute all the time. Just when you want to throw her out the window she grabs both sides of your head and plants a kiss that could melt an iceberg and then wraps her little arms around you in a way that could make Attila the Hun go soft. Her brothers are completely and happily at her mercy . Did I mention Tom? It could make a sick to see how tightly he wound around her finger...

The boys are adjusting and Tom enjoys his job. The people seem genuine and the work is interesting. Does it get any better? TJ has even mustered the courage to go out a few times. Trevor and Ty have enjoyed sledding until they are nearly frostbitten. I just hope to get a shower every couple of days...

I will post some pictures and some of our '60's palace" to boot. And for all who are wondering, the boys and I tore up the carpet in the kitchen ( plywood is better than carpet I decided) and the "Jeffrey Dahmer" ( in other words, could fit an entire human body comfortably inside ) chest freezer that was in the kitchen ( did I mention in avacado green?) has found a new home in the basement.
