It's been a while since I've posted any updates. I guess we've been busy! Here's a rundown of what's been going on.
Thanksgiving - We had a wonderful time with my extended family for Thanksgiving, enjoying lots of delicious food and spending time visiting. We even got to see my grandparents and some aunts, uncles and cousins.
Christmas - We've been doing various things to celebrate Christmas throughout the month - Christmas tree lighting, pick out and decorate our tree, Nite Lights (drive through light display), church Christmas program (Rebecca sang so well!), Christmas shopping, Christmas baking, Advent calendar and Christmas crafts.
As always we've been busy with MOPS, Kindermusik and church activities.
Rebecca continues to enjoy learning at home and doing all sorts of crafts and projects. She loves to pretend, play dress up, listen to music, read and dance. She is also becoming a great helper with Abram. She likes to bring him toys, give him hugs and kisses and make him laugh. Rebecca is good at making sure Abram does not get into her toys :) "No, no bud, that's not for you." But she really enjoys "sharing" his toys.
Abram is growing quickly! He is now 7 1/2 months old. He's already wearing 18-24 m clothes. He can move pretty quickly when he wants to get somewhere. Too fast for Rebecca's comfort. Abram can now go from his tummy to sitting on his own...and get back down :) He can sit quite well. Abram is also getting pretty good at standing while holding things. He's trying to pull himself up, but hasn't quite done that yet. It won't be long, though, since he's trying to do it constantly. He loves anything new. He gets bored with his toys pretty quickly, but notices anything new intstantly. He now has 3 teeth and is enjoying trying to chew food. He seems to enjoy peas, egg yolk, avocado, yogurt, cheese and sour cream.
We are all looking forward to spending lots of time with family next week celebrating Christmas. We will be celebrating as a family tomorrow. Then we will have extended family parties the 25th, 26th and 27th. It will be busy, but it should be a very merry Christmas.

Cute Christmas crafts!! I love those "stained glass" crafts like the tree Rebecca is holding - they're so pretty hanging on the window. I was hoping to do more crafty type stuff for Christmas with Carson this year, but sadly, we didn't do too many things. The few things we did do, he loved. I'll have to come up with some good winter arts and crafts for us to do in January now that (I think) I'm over the hump and should continue feeling better and better (I hope!!).
Too funny about Rebecca sharing Abram's toys well, but not her own. :)
Abram is sitting so well! He's growing up so fast! I still can't believe he and Jonah are wearing the same size clothes!
