Your First Christmas!

Merry Christmas! You really were not sure what Christmas was all about, but you did get the hang of opening presents. You loved all the new toys and gifts you got and had a wonderful time with all of your family.

There are tons of pictures here!

Seven Months

You are starting to learn so many new things! You figured out how to get around on your own! You started slowly army crawling around the living room and by the time Christmas came you were all over the house! Luckily you didn't take much interest in the tree until it was almost time to take it down. You love to explore everything in the house now, especially the drawers under Jacob's bed and in the kitchen, but you can't get into them just yet. You are just amazed at it rolling back and forth. The kitchen is your favorite place to be, especially when I am in there making dinner. You also love the outlets and electric cords. We had to cover all those up really fast! You are starting to use those legs and you can stand with Daddy or mine's help. And you love to bounce once you are standing. You said your first word, "dada," although you are still trying to figure out what it means. You love to talk and we pretend like we know what you are saying and talk with you. You started trying to drink from a sippy cup, you know that something is in there, but you can't always figure out how it comes out. You love you excer-saucer and will spend hours in there each day. You also will give out kisses, but only to a select few people! You also let us know that you want to be picked up by crawling over to our leg and hanging onto it. And of course we do because you are so huggable to hold!
