End of holidays and triplet stuff

12/17/2012

0 Comments

 
Well, Chanukah's over. Now we have to find spots for the toys the children have acquired. They are having a blast playing with all their new stuff. It's great watching them figure out what everything does. Joseph and Phillip are fighting over their Mickey Mouse figurines, while Hailey is loving her new baby.

I have a bit of the post holiday blahs. I don't want to take the decorations down, or acknowledge that it's over just yet. Soon, our friends will be in from out of town for Christmas, so I suppose it's still going on in some way. We will have our holiday party with everyone and their children, and we will get to see everybody again. That's always the great thing about this time of year. It's not the presents and the food. It's about being with everybody.

The triplets are growing so fast now. It's amazing the changes I see everyday. Not only that, their vocabulary is getting a lot bigger. Joseph's new favourite word is "cow". I read him Good Night Moon every night, and he has to find the cow on every page and tell me what it is. Phillip now tells me when he has to go. Every time he feels he must leave a room, a house, the car, he points and tells me "go go go". Hailey has developed this fascination with the parts of the body. She can spend hours pointing at the parts of the face, and tell you what they are all called. She also knows her tummy, fingers, toes, and bum. That last one always makes her laugh.

On the writing front, I have decided to do more work on the zombie novel before I move on to the third Hadariah book. I know how the trilogy will end, but I don't want to leave this new project so close to completion. I will pick up on the Hadariah books soon. The Dybbuk's Mirror is now in good hands awaiting opinions and suggestions. Then we shall see what the world thinks of it!

Now a picture of storytime:

Phillip and I read a Superman book. (He calls him 'Man-man Man'.) Hailey listens to us while Joseph reads "Goodnight Moon".

Ordinary Days and Chanukah

12/10/2012

Last night Brian and I hosted the cast party for Angelwalk Theatre's production of Ordinary Days. It was a fantastic production that was done with the lovely people from Winnipeg Studio Theatre.

The party went very smoothly. Everyone had a good time, and I can't wait until the next time I get to work with Angelwalk. My role on this production was solely as an audience member and as a party planner.

This weekend also saw the start of the Jewish holiday of Chanukah. Saturday was the first night. We lit the candles together and Joseph, Phillip, and Hailey opened their presents. It was a quiet, low-key evening.

Tonight we had latkes with our dinner. The kids loved them. Their presents tonight consisted of boxes of Chanukah cookies. They were delighted.

On the writing front, my personal edits on The Dybbuk's Mirror are almost done. Then I intend to start on editing the zombie novel and finish writing my third Hadariah book! Lots to do!
