Timothy’s at our friend’s house, where he goes when I work at Ben’s preschool, even though there’s no preschool today. He’s totally happy to hang out there now, just wanders off into the playroom without looking back. And yes, he wanders. As in, walks. He’s walking everywhere now, it’s definitely his preferred mode of getting anywhere.

So Ben and I have been baking mince pies this morning.

We’ve been busy getting ready for the whole holiday season. Shopping, making, baking, decorating. Grandma and Grandpa arrive on Friday, aunts arrive on Sunday morning, we’re having a Christmas party on Sunday with lots of our friends (and lots of kids — it’s going to be chaos, but in a really good way!) And then, of course, Christmas Day here. For the first time, Ben “gets” Santa, and is quite excited about him. But puzzled about the whole chimney thing, given our 6″ diameter woodstove chimney pipe. 🙂

Will try to post pictures later.
