It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas!

Ok, ok...it's not even Thanksgiving yet, but wow, you can't help but feel the Christmas spirit when ALL the stores are decorated and playing holiday music! I am so excited about Christmas this year for Bear Cub. We've read Santa books all year long, so he knows all about him and continually tells us that "Santa bring car, " or "Santa bring airplane." He also loves all of the "Trissmas trees" that we see out and about. I can hardly wait to go pick ours out and get decorated! He has told me he wants a "tall and skinny" tree and he is ready to help Mommy decorate with ornaments. Yippee!!

Well, enjoy the pictures from the last week. We had a really busy, fun one! Our weather has been chilly and beautiful, so we spent a lot of time outside playing and going to the park. We made a trip over to see our good friends "Aunt" Julie and Little Miss and the kids had a great time playing. It is so cute to watch them together now -- and boy, when they hug each other, they hug HARD! They even fell over after one of their big embraces. Bear Cub and I also went to a fun birthday party yesterday where he played with (well, around) some kids his age. It is amazing for me to step back and just watch him interact with others, because not-so-long-ago, he would have cried and clung to my legs when approached by other kids. It is so wonderful to see him smile, play, and and try to communicate with other children. It does this Mama's heart a world of good. :) Like I've said before, he's just growing up, right before our very eyes! We love him so much and are just so very proud of our boy. :)

Have a great week ahead!

He woke up early from a nap and wanted to lay on the couch...didn't take long for him to be snoozing away again. What a sweetheart!

Big hugs between BC and Little Miss!

I love this one...little hands and nose with Zoe...that's one her of new birthday balls. Well, it WAS, I should say. She quickly destroyed it. Sweet, but short-lived...

Rolling and playing outside...I believe he said something like, "Roll like Zah" - you know, he really looks up to his big sis (dog). He even likes to bark with her!

A game he created...it's the "Oh no! My jeep is stuck! Who is going to save it??" Game

Bear Cub to the rescue!

Ever wonder how many people can fit into a laundry basket? Well, now you know!
