The big story this week is that Amit and Luke went ice skating! Luke's friend Liam and his dad were there too, and the boys all had a great time. Neither Luke nor Liam had ever been ice skating, and Amit had only been once nearly a decade ago, so there was a lot of falling and holding onto walls.
On the way there Luke thought we were going skiing, so he kept asking if we were going to the tundra (he thinks anything snowy is a tundra). And he also referred to this ice skates as skis at first, but eventually he figured it out. Getting on the ice at the beginning was challenging, but after a little bit he was able to hang on to the walls and not fall, and eventually he was able to go off the walls without falling (too much). Go Luke!
One of the highlights was that we got to see the zamboni cleaning the ice! We were thinking about leaving around that time but there was no way Luke was going to miss this.
Luke stories:
•Luke likes making up songs, and he made one up about Christmas!
•Luke is starting to get opinionated about songs. In the car the other day 'Run Run Rudolph" was on and Amit changed it to a different station after a while. To which Luke responded "hey I liked Run Run Rudolph". After the song Luke asked when it would be on the radio again, and told us to switch to a different station to find it.
Jacy stories:
•Jacy thinks the Misra family dance is really funny. We were at Mod Pizza (which has really good background music) and we were dancing. Whenever Marinda did the Misra family dance Jacy would just start cracking up!

Marinda also designed this year's Christmas card! You'll get getting one in the mail soon, but here's a sneak peak. Funny story - Marinda was trying to figure out what to write about our family and had all this stuff about her book and Amit's job, and Amit gently reminded Marinda that we had done something pretty significant a few months ago - we bought a house! It's crazy how our house already seems like home and so familiar.

•Jacy is starting to get into putting her clothes on by herself. Good job Jacy!
•Jacy is also talking a lot more. This week she said "love blueberries" and "more Jesus", and is always babbling. We have no idea what she's saying, but it sounds like she'll have a lot to tell us when she can articulate better in a few months!
Luke and Jacy stories:
•Luke and Jacy both had coughs, so we gave them sore throat suckers. For this case, we used them as a bribe to get a cute picture.
