...that this little boy is part Chinese? Ask his Daddy's side of the family!


And two other cute photos of him enjoying himself.



Nothing overwhelming to report from our side. Benett is sitting up on his own unassisted now, but is still a massive couch potato and lacks any enthusiasm when it comes to being mobile.

He has also introduced us to his temper. Don't snatch things away from this boy or he will let you know exactly what he thinks of you stealing from him. No, he doesn't cry, he screams at us. Such a good quality to have at 7 months old, no? His assertiveness will serve him well later in life on the playground I am sure.

The rest of the family are sick and cooped up inside for now. Just as well with the massive snowfall we just had. Except for Joel. Poor guy still had to go out and shovel. And poor Jonah is all raspy, but boy does he sound cute!

Jonah is trucking along and is literally counting down the days until Christmas. Each day he moves the snowflake on the advent calendar and joyfully reminds of the days of the week and how many days there are.
"Munday, Dooday, Wenday, Durday, Byeday, Daduday, Dunday!"
"One, two, bee, bow, bibe, dits, deven, eight, nine, den, weven, dweve, duhdeen, bowbeen, ehdeen, ninedeen, DEVENTEEN!!"
"All dees days. Wots, wots, wots!!!"

translation: days of the week, counting in prefect order for a bit, and then exclaiming 'All these days. Lots, lots, lots!' .
