Christmas is Coming

Christmas is quickly approaching. It sounds like Mike (my boss) will be giving us 12/26-11/4 paid time off, which is very generous of him. Andrea and I may take a road trip or something for part of this time, since it will be a week and a half.

Things have been pretty busy/crazy in November. Harlo has been having a few difficult nights and times where she doesn't stop crying. But we are getting through it and she seems to be doing a little better as time goes on.

Harlo looked at me directly in the eyes and smiled for the first time tonight! It was very exciting and reminded me of one of the reasons God says children are a blessing (even though sometimes it is hard to see how they are a blessing...).

Andrea seems to be adjusting a little better to things, and things are starting to settle down a little bit.

Here is a video I just posted on YouTube of us giving Harlo a bath. You can either view the video below, or you can click this link to view the video.
