Glacierman need sleep, badly

Well, the Thanksgiving Holiday is over. Now it's time for Christmas. Last Friday, I managed to put up all our Christmas Decorations. I think I may have been the first one in town to do so. There was one other family that had their decorations up Friday, but I finish by 2 pm. I think the other family finished around 5 pm. I was very lucky, as to the fact that Friday, the daytime temperature was around 45 degrees. The next day, we had snow. Through previous experience, I know putting up decorations in snow is not fun.

Glacierbaby is doing quite well. I have yet to post pictures due to lack of sleep/time. We do have several pictures, I just haven't had time to get them off the camera. He is now almost 8 pounds, and over 20.5 inches. It is really neat to watch him develop a little more each day. He is smiling more, and a few of which are not nearly reflexive. We still can't get him to sleep in his crib or bassinet for more than 30 minutes, however he can spend up to 2 or 3 hours in his swing or car seat. If he could sleep in his crib, then glaciermom and I could actually sleep together. Instead I take the late night shift and glaciermom takes the early morning shift. This way, I get a some continuous sleep before going to work.

On a more fun note, I am totally getting into NBC's Heroes. Of course, I do love superhero movies and TV shows. It is of course fun to try to figure out who the bad guy is, how they got their powers, what it all means, etc. However, what initially drew me to the show was that it was about the genesis of superhero powers, and how the individuals learn to control and deal with them.

On a less fun note, I still haven't finished reading Robin Hobb's Assassin's Quest. I still only have 100 pages or so, but due to a lack of sleep, I just haven't had the energy to read. Hopefully I'll finish by Christmas.
