Wow, now thats a lot of updates!!!

OK!! So I am terrible at blogging. It has been a couple months... to fill in some time. Halloween was a blast, went to party all dressed up, even Paul, which Russell had a blast at running around with all the other kids. So fun to watch him grow and learn and make friends with everyone! He is so social.

Ok, then Thanksgiving with my family at my Mom and Dad's new house. This was also a lot of fun, because his two cousins Ty and Mia were teaching him how to dance and he was wrestling with Ty on the living room floor. Quite a site since Ty is 7 years old (he is so good with his baby cousin.).
Nana and Papa's new house is just a short walk from the Capital Park around Capital Lake, so we went down a couple times just to play in the grass and look at all the ducks and swans in the lake.
Christmas!!!! Ok, so that was fun too. We did several gift openings. One at U. Mike and A. Nancy's with my extended family (a total blast for Russell who has several young second cousins all about his age) and then at Nana and Papa's. Then back at our house with all of Paul's family (this was on actual Christmas with Santa and everything), then we saved two gifts that we opened as just our family on the Feast of the Epiphany.
The video is him playing with the drums he opened on the Epiphany, pretty darn funny to watch him go back and forth. Too bad the video isn't as long as he really did it for (like almost 20 minutes!). Which for a kid as busy as he is, that is no small feat to be absorbed with one toy like that... like father like son.


Ok, so I think this puts us up to date so far. If I missed something, I will fill in later...
