Finally Some Snow

Colin has been talking about playing in the snow for months.  We finally got some for Thanksgiving and boy was it awesome.  He was so excited.  Too bad it only lasted a couple days.  We'll see when the next snowfall comes.

This month was a bit light with the pictures.  We had some birthday parties for Colin's friends.  We visited a farm and saw some behind the scenes stuff and plenty of cows.  We had Thanksgiving with Yaya and Nan.  Overall the month was a bit quiet.

Preschool is still very exciting.  We still aren't told much of what he does at school.  He is more forthcoming with what he doesn't do such as "I didn't sing the song.  Ms Pelletier did." or "I didn't run around on the playground, I just watched the other kids."  We definitely have an introvert.  He loves to observe others.

He seems to be an information soaking machine right now.  He counts almost everything.  There are a  few puzzles he loves to do.  Some Thomas puzzles, of course, and a states puzzle.  A majority of the states can be named and he can complete the puzzle on his own.  Even some of the states can be placed with no bordering states.  It was pretty amazing watching him do it.  There is still a lot of inquisition about things he's noticing too.

Christmas was here yesterday apparently.  At least according to Colin it was.  It will be interesting to see how excited he gets as it gets closer.  We haven't written to Santa yet but his list as of now is:

A sailboat (Santa was on top of this already)
workgloves
bubbles (Santa has an enormous stock of these)
and presents...

not a big list but we're working on it.
