The Reason for the Season.....

What a busy time of year! Between parties and eating and family and gifts and eating and decorating and eating - sometimes it's easy to forget why everyone gets so crazy. Some 2000 years ago our Father sent His Son to earth as a baby - no wonder we celebrate!

Thank you Aunt Carel for the yearly addition to our Willow Tree nativity scene. We look forward to adding to it each year and look forward to the future when we get to unpack these figurines yearly and talk to Breckin about the significance of each.

Breckin wishes you all a Merry Christmas. May you all have a wonderful time with family and loved ones while remembering "the reason for the season".

For Aunt Heather

I hope you're not too bored at work today Aunt Heather. You can watch me grab Daddy's face, poke his eyes, and pick his nose. I can't wait to see you on Sunday. I love you.

Play Time

Breckin has really been enjoying his exersaucer a lot more lately. He's learning how to use his hands to hold things and to entertain himself. Here's some video of him having fun.

My little boy is getting so big!

Over the last couple weeks Breckin has really become interested in his toys. He has really started to realize that he has control over his hands and can make them do what he wants! He had his four month visit to the pediatrician last week and did so well - I was proud. He got three shots and was done crying by the time I could pick him up. He continues to grow like a weed: 18 lbs 9 oz and 28 1/2 inches long. That explains why we have to buy him new clothes every other week!

It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas
