Catching Up

Today we have several posts.  It's been hectic here.  As if three boys didn't keep me busy enough, there is also the busy holiday season, birthdays, playdates, house hunting/selling....

So for the house update for those of you that haven't heard yet....Tuesday we pulled out of our contract.  Though we REALLY wanted the house and 20 acres of land everything started to fall apart beginning Friday.  To sum it up quickly, the house needs a new roof, new A/C, the heating oil tank (underground) has a leak AND apparently it is impossible to get a loan for a house on over 5 acres (especially one with a guest house AND three separate parcels of land). 

We'll regroup over the holidays and decide what to do next.  With a move not in the near future it's back to potty training.  I was going to wait until after the move, but now I'll start after the holidays.  Wish me luck!!  Somehow I'm not looking forward to this....going to be an adventure with three kids.  In the meantime we're surviving the cold front here.  Luckily it isn't as bad as other places, but it is definitely cold here!!

Enjoy the following posts with pictures (Saturday was a very busy day....new tree, farmer's market, train ride with Santa and office party for Josh and me).  I'll work on more....today the boys are handsome in the St. Nick gifts from Oma and Opa (adorable Christmas clothing).  Plus Sunday they have a playdate Christmas party at MyGym.
