I just love, love, LOVE this time of year. There truly is a Christmas spirit. Even if life is stressed, busy - la, la , la - it is just a happy time. Colin is thrilled to the max about Christmas this year. He wants to write Santa a letter and is already talking about leaving cookies & milk for him (and carrots for the reindeer - of course). He also has a Star Wars Lego advent calendar that has been a very exciting item. He loves opening the new window to see what he gets. He recently watched some of a Star Wars movie with Will, which thrilled Will to death! So, Colin knows the characters and is having a hay day with the legos.
Meli has been clapping after every bite of food. So cute but it makes for a long meal. She also has her first two teeth. Colin thinks that is so cool. Meli probably does not. Colin got his teeth so easily. You barely noticed anything was wrong. He may have been a little more cranky but he was such a happy baby that it was nothing. Meli is having a little more trouble. Still not bad. Definitely doable but poor baby. May's face is getting a little chubbier. So cute. I just want to pinch her little cheeks. She still has a pretty small frame.
Meli is so lucky to have Colin as a big brother. He is always ready to help make her happy. I may have already mentioned this but there have been two times where he really shows this. On our drive home on Thanksgiving he sang most of the ride home (over an hour) to make her happy. She calms down whenever someone sings "Meli had a little lamb...". Then the other morning he heard her crying, so he took his pillow and blanket in her room and laid down and sang to her again. Such a sweet boy!
