Christmas is almost here!

We are counting down the days until Christmas. The kids love the advent calendar and taking turns putting a new ornament on the felt tree every morning. Our Christmas tree's lights are usually on and it gets frequent visitors poking it's ornaments and branches.

I've taken a couple pictures of kids wearing my TibbenLittles clothing, as you can see below.

Wendy LOVES food. She eats big meals three times a day. It's a messy occasion but the rinse-down after her meal is over, is another favourite thing for her. She thinks getting water in her mouth is exciting and fun. She just worked another 2 top teeth through so she now has 6 teeth! What a big 7 month old. We're helping her learn how to sleep through the night right now, which is going quite well, thankfully. She only woke up once last night, for about 20 minutes. Here's hoping tonight is a fully night of sleep for ALL. :o)

Ry is busy writing a paper, soon he'll receive 35+ papers to grade, and he also has one more paper to write after that. He will continue to be busy for the next little while!

Peek in to our life

It's been busy lately! I don't think I posted on my blog about this previously: I've started a baby & child clothing sewing business. I am having a lot of fun creating and seeing finished products. I work on sewing mostly in the evenings but also in the day if need-be. My online store is www.tibben.etsy.com, and my business is called TibbenLittles.

Hurricane Sandy

We've made it through Hurricane Sandy with only 6 days without power. We aways had water as well as hot water. We felt very lucky.

A load of recent (past 3 weeks) pics

I decided to give a snapshot peek at what the kids are up to at this exact moment. (See pictures below)

Wendy is getting so big! We spent the last 6 weeks traveling and staying with friends and family and during that time she grew out of the clothes i had packed her. Aleida grew out of her sandals during our travel time, too! Anyway, our trip was a fantastic time and we so enjoyed seeing and reconnecting with many people we love. We are happy to be back in Princeton now and we're ready to start our new fall schedules.
