This week, we're looking forward to the arrival of the Bacheler clan to Green Bay for an early Christmas celebration. Grandma and Papa arrive tomorrow afternoon; Uncle Dan, Aunt Molly and doggy-cousin Lucia will get here around lunchtime on Saturday. I'm planning a feast for us all on Sat night - the menu will include garlic and rosemary-studded pork roast (I got a Clark Gable roast at a nearby grocer that has a beautiful old-fashioned meat counter/butcher; never heard of that style of roast before, have you?), baked apples (Cooks Illustrated magazine recipe), Grandma Pam's wonderful spinach salad, rolls, and my homemade chocolate mint cookies for dessert...stay tuned for photos from our visit.
Here are a couple more video clips to show Owen's daily head control work-out regiment. He's getting stronger (and more vocal!) by the day.
