The Algeras

It's getting cold around here! There was frost on the ground this morning and tonight is supposed to be freezing, too. I got out the coats and hats! Doesn't David look cute in his baby fleece?

We had a very awake night last night. About 4:30 David decided it was playtime. Big smiles! But no luck, kid, Mom and Dad just want to sleep at that time. He finally gave in.

The kids had a great day just playing at home. Sara wanted to make Daddy another pie, but we settled for slicing apples for a snack. She made me apple pie with cheese with her dishes today. And apple cider with ice cream. She comes up with some pretty good combinations! Usually her favorite foods in one mix or another. I wasn't to sure about the mashed potatos with waffles.

After dinner we went hayriding with the TLC kids. Sara stayed behind at church in the nursery with Hayden. They pretty much run around in circles and make the nursery volunteer's heads spin. Ben and David and I and the kids had a great time at Teusinks farm. It was almost completely dark by the time we got off. Of course, the kids thought that was great. David was bundled in several layers and in the snuggly, so he slept the entire time. When we got back to church, Sara was running in circles and jumping - she seems wide awake but silliness usually means sleepiness.

We got home and had a great bedtime! David ate and fell asleep. Sara got into her pjs, had a snack of crackers and milk while watching the World Series with Ben. She went right to bed after she finished with waves and kisses for all.

I hope the fantastic bedtime is a sign that we will have a fantastic night!
