Christmas

The pictures didn't upload right and are a little mixed up.

Christmas

Christmas was so much fun this year! Maria has been talking about "Jesus's Birthday" for the last couple of weeks. She loved opening all of her presents. Actually on Christmas Eve she opened everyone's presents. Her gift from her Oma and Opa was a piano. It comes with a microphone and she loved it! Maria got on that microphone and started saying, "oh, oh, oh". It was so funny! When she would open clothes she would just throw them on the ground. I guess those were not so interesting. Christmas Eve was a little different this year since Dorian and Shelley were out of town we did Christmas Eve at our house. It was very nice and relaxing. I'm thinking my mother-in-law may want to do it again at our house because she didn't have to do any clean-up. :) On Christmas morning we woke-up and did Christmas with Maria and Wesley just as our little family. Maria was very excited to open more presents. The hit from Christmas morning was her My Little Pony car. She had been asking for a car. We then spent the rest of Christmas with my family. Maria then opened even more presents. She was in overload by this point. Her favorite gift there was from her Nana and Papa. It was a princess carriage and she played with it and wasen't interested in opening any more gifts after that. She has been asking every morning about more presents. What a spoiled well-loved little girl! The day after Christmas we got 7 inches of snow. We went out in it for just a little bit. It was too cold to be out there to long with Wesley. Maria spent more time outside with Sebastian. She wanted to make a snowman and a snow angel. Wesley wasen't sure how he liked it. I hope everyone has a Happy New Year!

Wesley is 4 months!

Sorry I've not updated with pictures lately. Time seems to just be flying by. I can't believe my baby boy is 4 months old. He is weighing almost 16 pournds. He has been rolling over from his stomach to his back for about a month now. He can almost get from his back to his stomach but has not figured out where to put his arm. He is a very smily baby. He is starting to talk more and loves to look at Maria. The other day Maria was sitting by him and they had their own little conversation. We had a really nice Thanksgiving at Barbara and David's. It was nice having our 2 new additions. Wesley joined us at the table by sitting in the high chair. I gave him a spoon and he actually got it in his mouth the right way. That boy is ready to eat food already. This weekend we went over to my parents house and made Christmas cookies. We let Maria and Ethan make sugar cookies and then decorate them with icing. I think they ate more cookies and icing then not. Maria is very excited about Christmas. She keeps telling us that it is Jesus's Birthday. She also loves the Christmas tree. She calles candy canes "candy corns." We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Wesley rolling over

I can't believe at just 3 months old my little boy starting rolling over.
