Rachel Concert, Let it Snow!

Waiting for the Rachel Coleman Concert to start.

Rachel Coleman from Signing Time!

Genevieve was so cute.  We were waiting outside the gymnasium doors but could see inside.  She said, "I don't see her, I don't see her."  Then she saw here and got all excited and said, "I see her, I see her."  She was very, very excited to see Rachel.  During the concert Rachel asked the audience what the sign for silly is.  Genevieve knows the sign for silly, but for some reason she thought Rachel was asking her to be silly.  She was jumping around and making silly faces.  Cracked us both up!

We had a ton of snow the week of Thanksgiving.  Monday morning school was two hours late and then kids were sent home early too.  Tuesday and Wednesday school was cancelled.  We already had Thursday and Friday off.  Not exactly the way I like a week off of work, but I'll take it. 

Gen ready to go out in the snow.

 

Gentle daddy, gentle!

Gen informed us several times that we have to be careful while driving in the snow.

Thanksgiving 2010.

Waiting in line for Santa pictures.

 

 

Last year Genevieve went completely catatonic for Santa pictures.  This year she was able to get out that she wants a Diego backpack for Christmas and wasn't quite so catatonic.  She still didn't smile or make a silly face despite our efforts.

In other news I was recently diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes and am dealing with how to manage this.  I am hoping I can manage it with food and exercise and don't need to have insulin shots.  So far, so good.  Fortunately, it seems my nausea and vomiting have tapered off.  Good timing.
