Jia has been talking about curly whirly hair a lot lately. When ever I use a curling iron she demands we get rid of the curls the second she sees them. So she had to work hard convincing me she was ready to try curlers. I put them in before bed and she kept them in all night. Then this morning she wanted the curls GONE NOW. Sigh. She looks gorgeous. We told her she would need a bath to get rid of them so she is attempting to ignore them. So cute. Sooooo cute.
We met with our social worker this morning for Luk's first post placement visit. Next one in two months.
Now we're knee deep in Christmas decorations. Luk got his turn sitting in the little sleigh. I've finally gone through my shopping. Need to round out a few things. Running out of time!!
We met neice Avery and her boyfriend last night at the Christmas train. The rain stopped. The train cars are all covered this year. Jia enjoyed the crafts. Luk liked the train. The girls all did a power smart challenge and won super cool bike lights. Eric took Luk for a turn and nodded his head for him and he got one too. We even visited Santa. Luk wasn't freaked out. More curious. Only $7 for the photo. Nice. Jia refused to go near him so it was just three Nelson kids in the photo. Sigh. Gramma came with us this year too. First year we weren't there in a fcc group.
Lili and Fei danced and played piano at Cairnsmore yesterday. The littles stayed home with Eric. After we left, the big girls and I took some time to shop at Superstore for some slippers for Luk. He is always cold and needed them to grip the floor too. We bought new jammies for everyone while we were there. Lili found dog sledding jammies and asked for them. The first time she has ever asked for an article of clothing. From the boy dept. but still exciting.
Then we stopped at Menchies, my favorite ;) Nice to just sit and chat. Miss spending time with just them.
Weekend has been fairly relaxing overall. Back to the chaos tomorrow. Concert week at school, always disruptive to life. Four shows.
