Preparing for the holidays

 

It seems like little has happened in the past week but if I wait too long then too much happens so here is another attempt at a weekly blog update.

The weather has really changed for the colder and we are learning about the faults of our home come wintertime. We have added some insulation and weather stripping which seems to have made a difference in the overall draftiness of the house. The house still feels cold but maybe not as cold as last year (a definite maybe).

Joon has been changing rapidly every day it seems. He speaks way better Korean than me (as I am reminded of often) and he is really getting into books. He is always looking at the pictures and asking “what is this?” and requiring us to read the book several (hundred?) times per night. He has also discovered the tv but books seem to be the priority for now. 

It seems the past week has been mostly about shopping. Buying christmas presents for the family back home and trying to decide what everyone is into these days. Shopping is one of Joon’s favorite activities. He has not crossed into the I must have this toy phase yet so we consider ourselves lucky thus far.

A couple of weeks ago I ran in a local 10k race. Here they are very organized about the whole affair with prizes, free food, photos and medals for all. It is pretty fun to be involved.  Here is a link to the website to see some pictures: http://marathon.hallailbo.co.kr/ In the middle of the page are some pictures. type the number 15243 in to the search bar above those pictures and hit enter.

Okay, Joon is waking up from his nap, gotta run, Peace
