Sorry that the posts have been so scarce of late. I have several excuses!
1. We have had our first visitor, Rachel, here for the last week plus and we have been doing lots of sight-seeing. So much, that we seem to be exhausted in the evenings and after a few rounds of Dutch Blitz, we hit the sack.
2. Ruby is on a bender... a "no liquid" bender that is! She decided suddenly that she hated the taste of her formula. Formula she has been drinking part-time for more than a month. Then she decided that she really didn't even like water, so we're having a bit of a stressful time trying to get enough fluids into her. We've been certain for about 2 weeks that her top front teeth are trying to come through, but so far nothing is visible. ARG!! She also has been sleeping horribly, which in turn means that we are sleeping horribly.
I managed to make it through the shortest day of the year--it really wasn't that bad... but I must admit that the grey days coupled with Ruby's increasingly foul mood has put a major damper on my Christmas spirit. Both Jared and I feel as if it's just too much to keep in the spirit for two months, especially since we will be missing our families this year. We are so thankful for everything that God has provided... but, there are still hard days living so far from our loved ones.
Tomorrow, hopefully, I will be able to post some of our adventures, but if not, just know that I am feverishly working on our Christmas newsletter... better late than never!
