Karl and Angela Rees

This week was a busy week.  Angela ran a few errands at the beginning of the week and Karl was hard at work.  Angela took Thomas to the mall to see Santa.  Thomas was nervous at first, be he did sit on Santa's lap.  The most Thomas said was "presents" and "candy in sock."

Thursday we did a lot of shopping for our house, since we had a 10% off coupon.  Now we have more projects to do (not that we were out of other projects to do).  

Friday Angela and the boys went to story time playgroup.  During the stories the moms looked at toys others had brought to swap.  Angela found a couple of cute toys for Jonah and a book for Thomas.  Swapping toys is really a good idea.  Friday evening was the ward Christmas party (which was too bad for Karl since he had a yummy work party earlier that day).  Thomas tried out Santa's lap again, and this time Jonah joined him.  

Saturday Karl took Thomas to the park for their own soccer class and then they played in the mud working on the sprinklers.  They had so much mud on them, Thomas could barely lift his shoes.  Lots of fun.

Today we walked around the neighborhood to look at the Christmas lights.  There were a few house that are totally decked out.

Thomas and Jonah are sure cute boys.  "Bye, have a good day" says Thomas has he leaves the room, only to return a few moments  later with his roar to scare us.  Karl got his assistant a dried fruit basket.  Thomas wanted some and was told that it was for Daddy's friend.  He then replied "Thomas friend."  Thomas also plays Mommy and Daddy with his little people (sometimes they go bye bye to work and other times they clean and go shopping).    Jonah said mama and dada this week.  Angela is very pleased that the mamas severely outnumber the dadas (with Thomas it was the other way around).  He is good at eating his veggies.  We were going to wait on the fruit, but he is having some bowel issues so we started applesauce today in hopes that it would help.
