My baby boy has learned to really crawl, pull himself up, and cut his first tooth in a matter of days. It's killing me!! I imagine he could be walking by January...unless I can find a way to tie him down without being reported to children's services.
Tuesday night I was feeling the stress of trying to get everything ready to leave for Erie in the morning, so needless to say, I wasn't the easiest person to be around. While I was scrambling around getting dinner ready, Ethan came up to me and in the sweetest voice said, "Mommy, is there anything I can do to help you?" I love that boy.
Karis is becoming quite the artist. She's a girl after my own heart when it comes to stuff like this! She drew about 20 pictures of Christmas trees and snowmen at my parent's house. Here is one of her masterpieces.
And Natalie. The girl is a wild woman and she's very sharp! The nursery worker at church told us today that she knows all the kids names and who's sippy belongs to who...she's always on the ball and making sure everyone stays in line. Here is a picture of here playing in the snow we got last Tuesday. It's really the first time she's been able to move around in it...and of course she was very mad when it was time to go inside. I could hear her screaming in the house as I finished shoveling the drive!
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We spent last Saturday with Mark's family (and actually got his parents to play pictionary with us...I haven't laughed that hard in a while!). We were in Erie for a few days with my family. Dad and I did the Turkey Trot 5K, which was very cold! And of course I have to throw it in here that I beat him - for the first time in my life!
I am so thankful for an amazing family. I am thankful for a wonderful church. I am thankful for my MOPS girlfriends. I am thankful that God chooses to bless me...even when I don't deserve it.
