Boo

Many have often said that Madison's look and even the way she acts remind them of a girl called "Boo" from "Monsters, Inc." In some ways, I'd have to agree - tonight we watched the movie again on our new television at the new house. It was a nice evening together, cuddling on the new couch. It has been such a quiet neighborhood, and for the first time, the weather is turning quite cold. It wasn't a gradual drop - the temperature just plummeted to a point where it was downright chilly.

We made time to watch a movie tonight, and enjoyed the parts with Boo in them. Madison says "boo!" a whole lot around us and everyone else. That is actually something she does quite frequently, especially this time of year. She loves to jump out and scare you - and if you act all frightened, it's hysterical to her. She has a great time with that - so much so that she'll do it again and again. She'll chase anyone around the house, or wherever, just for a chance to scream out: "Boo!"

Tonight, we are saying goodbye to Ba-Ba and Nana. They are driving home tomorrow, after spending a few weeks here doing quite a bit of work. Actually, they've painted several rooms in the new house and even hung up curtains. In fact, they've got the guest room all filled with nice furniture too (that's where they've been spending the night, of course). Everything is ready - all we need to do now is get some movers to haul the heavy stuff over there and we'll be set to live in our new home. That first day in the new house is going to be quite a thrill: Madison has enjoyed the new house quite a bit, especially her new room. She knows just where it is. Tonight, we played with her Thomas the Train set in the room for a while, and laid out where the kitchen, tea table and shelves go. All that's left in there is the television set and cabinet, and that room will be ready for some serious playtime. Not that it has been neglected thus far. Right now, it's been a great place for fun for us. Can't wait to move in officially!
