Last Sunday we went out as a family and picked out the garland for our mantel (which we decorate each year instead of a tree, due to limited space in our condo). The evening was spent decorating and resulted in several smashed ornaments, much fascination with the nativity pieces and a squeals of delight when the Christmas lights were finally turned on. As soon as we pulled out the stockings, Jack tried to put them on his feet!
Playing hide and seek with Daddy
Such a good helper!
The finished Christmas mantle (Baby Sophie has her own stocking too!)So our boy is getting bigger and milestones and special occasions are passing...we are so blessed to share these moments of his little life. He has had a growth spurt the past few weeks and is growing out of his trousers again. His speaking has really taken off and he copies everything we say and talks a lot on his own now. It's so great to have him able to communicate! He often says words we had no idea he knew. So cute.
Please pray for him as he transitions to being a big brother next week. We are praying for acceptance of and a special love for his little sister and for not too many behavioral regressions! Hopefully the excitement of Christmas will help!
