Christmas countdown has begun!

First a recap on our great weekend. As I said before, we had a very nice thanksgiving. Friday we just hung out and played many games! I went to bed very happy as I had not played Hand and Foot in awhile and it was so much fun:)Friday night we opened gifts for the Schnyders Christmas. Not surprisingly Zoe came away with the most stuff. She got a few very cute outfits for this winter and few winter PJ's. She also got a very fun new toy that she is a little to young to use yet as she cannot walk, but she very much enjoys sitting by it (check out the pictures) Tony and I of course for a few things too. Thanks Mom and Dad for the gifts. Saturday we headed to Amish country for some fun shopping and eating.
Sunday was Baptism and it was a wonderful day. It was a very nice service. Because it was the first Sunday of advent and we had communion it was quite a long service and Zoe was tired before the baptism started. She did a little complaining, but not too bad. She fell asleep on my lap before the service was over. This is very uncommon as Zoe will not fall asleep if she can see people as she is such an extrovert. We feel very blessed to have Zoe baptized into a church that we already feel so supported and encouraged in. There is also a new album from baptism.
We have another busy week on our hands, so far I am subbing 2 afternoons and of course the normal two afternoons of tutoring that I always so. That means Tony will have Zoe alot, which he is fine with and he does a great job. But this also means she is completely mine by the time I get home:)
Zoe has started crawling a little. I don't think she is really aware of what she is doing, she just sees something and goes and gets it. We have only seen it a few time and only for a short distance, but I am sure very soon she will be all over the place...scary
Two weeks from Thursday we are both done with school!!! We are very excited to spend a couple weeks in the MN/SD/IA area!
