I'm not a huge christmas person....but this year it can't come fast enough!! I like seeing christmas things....and even felt a bit of hope when I picked up a jug of milk that said Dec 03. December is COMING!!!
I got a new church calling this week. I'm the ward music chairperson. Can't say I was expecting that. I was actually hoping for nursery :) It should be ok though. I kind of schedule all things music - pick hymns, get music approved for the choir etc. I've never had a music calling, so it will definitley be a change.
What else. Oh, Isaac weaned himself this week. I'm glad, cuz I was ready to give it up and wasn't sure how to do it without some tantrums. My originally goal was to nurse for 6 months....then I thought maybe 12 months....13 months was plenty. He did great though....he just kinda lost interest one day - a week ago! So I guess I'm done :)
I had some help again today, from a youth. I got sooooo much done in the 2 hours she was here. We also had some church kids over and they had fun building forts etc. Playdates are great!
Hmm....on the military front. We are still hearing a Spring move is very likely. It will either be Ottawa or Kingston, and we are asking for Kingston. It just seems like it would be less scary than Ottawa to me....but considering I've never been either places.....I really have no idea.
Speaking of moving....I am fairly terrified of how the sale of our house will work out....if it even does. There is currently 2 places for sale in my complex....for $60,000 LESS than we paid for this one!! I guess the good news is....these 2 places were rentals and are pretty trashed. We've done lots of reno's to ours, so it might be worth a little more....but not much.... So yeah....worst case we might have to rent this place out.....and wait a few years to try to sell again. This certainly keeps me up at night! There are so many different possibilities... We are probably going to have a realtor come while ethan is here for christmas and see if he thinks there is any hope for us selling without going into debt!
And on that note....I think it's time for me to stalk the kingston MLS listings.....DROOL.
PS. my kids are still CUTE!! I had a lot of fun with them this week.....we certainly spend a lot of time together :)

A music calling? That should be fun and not too much work! Hopefully these next few weeks go by fast! I'm glad it was a good week considering the terrible temperature!
Kingston is a great choice. It has an airport, and it's about an hour away from Watertown, NY (where we used to live) so you can make lots of trips to Target! And it's not too far from Ottawa if you wanted to go for a day trip.
