Term

Tristan is term today! So, although he's not due for another 3 weeks, if he were born today it would be ok. I hope to have more time, however, because I'm not through the "to do" list that my nesting instincts have inspired. So far I've scrubbed toilets, sold sundry items (clutter) in the local classifieds, tossed outdated papers from our filing cabinet, put up shelves in the laundry room, and cleaned out the furnace room. I don't know why the furnace room has to be clean before Tristan is born. It just does.

Chloe is picking up new words quickly now. This week she added "Joss", "bath", "merci" (French), and "bottle" to her vocabulary. She loves to read books and play with her big sister. She also takes delight in climbing onto the table and dumping the salt out of the shaker and pulling dirt out of our potted plant.

Joss is starting to enjoy Chloe's company more, but also likes to tease. Joss' favorite pastimes lately have been watching "Shrek", coloring pictures (mostly of snakes, which she can easily draw), and helping in the kitchen.
