Busy, busy

I try to post something at least once a month, but somehow it has been almost two months since I last posted anything! We are busy, at times too busy to let you all know that we're still here and still doing well. But surely I could post just one picture of our girls, and a few sentences to let you all know what we've been up to lately...

Estella, Adelaida, and Cordelia in their Thanksgiving dresses. Dale thinks that Adelaida looks like the master-mind in this picture and Cordelia and Estella are her minions, ready to do anything she asks of them! It's hard to get three little girls to sit still for the camera, and this is one of my favorite pictures of the girls right now.


The girls are all healthy--except for a few colds, a week with the stomach flu (I'm still not sure how Estella didn't get that nasty illness!), and a little gasping-for-breath lips-turned-blue hypoxemia episode that earned Cordelia a hospital admission. Nothing out of the ordinary for a family with three young kids, and thankfully Cordelia's episode seems to have been a one-time event and she is just fine now.

The kids all dressed up for Halloween (I'll post pictures in a future post), we traveled for Thanksgiving (more on that soon), and are packing all of our belongings for a move next week (also in a future post). I'm enjoying my job and Dale is traveling a lot (really nothing post-worthy there).

Oh, and I achieved one of my goals for the year -- 2012 Christmas cards were mailed in 2012! Much better than last year's cards, which were approximately seven months late. :)

December is busy, for all of us, it seems. I hope your December is filled with fun times spent with family and friends!
