3 More Days of School!






I can't wait for Christmas Break to finally arrive. Somehow I have a ton of shopping left to do and no gifts wrapped....but as long as I survive the next three days, I don't care! The family get-togethers start next weekend and don't stop until Christmas. It will be great to see everyone. The pic above is me piled up with Davey and his cousins Eliza and Rachael.

Saturday morning we got our first snow....and freezing rain...Davey couldn't take his big eyes off of the window...wondering what all that white stuff was outside. Since it all turned to rain by the afternoon, we did not play in it. We will have to wait for the next snow. The last time it snowed here was the day we took him home from the hospital. How things change!

Davey is crawling around like a mad man. Christmas is the worst time to have a mobile child that has not completely figured out what the word "NO" means! He loves the lights on the tree...tries to get them everytime...we have electric candles in each window...he wants to hold them... He is also become an expert with his tongue! He sticks it out to a little point when he laughs now! He eats many solid food now. Pretty much anything on our plate in tiny pieces. He gets better at feeding himself each day. He would love to get his hands on the cat, Alba, but she is too fast! He squeals whenever she gets close.

Though he has been jumping like a Tigger from about 2 months old, I finally found a Johnny Jump Up for him. It says I can use it until he is 24 lbs, so I have a while longer with it. We should have bought it sooner...he LOVES it! I had a video...but it is having issues uploading...

The new challenge is to get Davey to smile for my camera. He has a great smile, but my camera has some sort of stutter flash that always makes him squint or blink. So about 80% of the pictures taken have him looking stupid in them! And of course, most of those have his two fingers in his mouth! Also up there are a couple from Sears this month...I have to leave it to the professionals!
