I forgot to mention that Zozo is officially a full on walking guy now! Molly reported this development to me right away. He insists on walking everywhere. My baby boot camp and the you're going to walk pronto vibes I sent him from Seattle paid off! I can't wait to see Trav trotting around the house when I visit during the holidays. Of course, now I'm in need of a new baby boot camp task for him. Hmmm. Maybe we will tackle potty training next, and he will break records as the youngest kid to go off diapers. Reporters will ask where his genius comes from, and I will very humbly take all the credit. Har har.

Yesterday, Mols took and sent pictures of their house and furniture, so I can see where they're at on decorating. Zozo decided he needed to get in on that, turning the photo shoot in to his own mini-version of Cribs. Here he is pointing out the toilet in his bathroom. Mols and I think the toilet bowl may be one of those small containers of water that he will have a penchant for diving into head first.
















I'll have you know that I am still treeless, but I'm really feeling tomorrow is my day. I will find The One. In the meantime, I spent this evening distracting myself by whipping up a batch of my "famous" chex mix. It's now my thing after I made it for the potluck last year. Yum.

Man, there are a lot of great shows this week. There is something I want to go to on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights, but I don't know if I'm going to make it to even one of them, sadly. Boo. This cold and difficulties making decisions/coordinating with friends and planetary alignments and holiday parties I should go to (but probably won't because at this particular gathering there is always a little group who decides to break out the chess for true party excitement - ugh!) and blahbitty blah are getting in the way. We'll see what happens, but I think it's safe to assume that you have more engaging posts along the lines of "I'm sitting on the couch watching a terrible 90's movie while complaining about my Christmas tree woes" to look forward to. Must return now to chugging cough medicine and coating myself with Vicks VapoRub.
