So I decided since I missed out on the 24 days of thankfulness in November that I would do it in December! Of course I am already behind a day but here is what I was thankful for yesterday:
Thursday, Dec. 1- I am thankful for the 4 good tires on my car that get me places I need to be safely.
Friday, Dec. 2- thankful that Luke was well enough to head back to school today. :-)
Speaking of Mr. L...... he had a good check up Monday, weighing in at 26.8 lbs (60%), 33.5 inches for height (85%) good overall development. Hooray for that! The Dr. asked us if there was anything we had questions about or she could help us with and Chris asked if she could make him stop screaming so loud! LOL! He has recently started this as a way to let us know he is not happy or in protest if he wants something he can't have. Not one of our favorite habits but we know it's just a phase. :-) Meal times continue to be interesting.... he is most keen on snack foods (crackers, cheerios, etc.) but he still likes him some berries too! He also is learning about emotions.... he smacked me on the head with a plastic toy this week and when I made a sad face and said "owe" he came over and gave me sweet hug and kiss......... THEN smacked me on the head AGAIN in the same place! Little stinker. Elvis the Elf comes out this week to watch over him during the month of Dec. so we look forward to helping him find where Elvis will be sitting to watch over him each morning. We put up our tree this week on Gotcha Day and he is in "ball" heaven! And all of the lights are "hot". Christmas is going to be tons of fun.... good stimulation and learning opportunities for him.
So much good stuff happening in our lives....
We are headed to Dallas this weekend to visit family for the first round of Christmas- hoping to ride a train and see Santa! Below is me and Luke finding our perfect tree.
