Dear Santa

December 5, 2013

Alright, let’s get this thing booted up here.

Here we go…

Dear Santa,

I’ve been a very good, smiley, happy little boy this year. I sleep great at night and always take good naps for Momma. I’m a good eater and love all kinds of fruit, unlike big brother. I’ve been working very hard at learning to walk too. Big brother says that since I’ve been good, you’ll bring me some toys. He thinks you should bring me a firetruck, but I think he just says that because he wants to steal it from me. I don’t really care what you bring me as long as it will be mine and Momma can tell big brother not to take it. I’ll leave you some cookies on Christmas. Hope you like elephant cookies because that’s what big brother wants to make you and, until I can talk, he gets to pick.

Your friend,
Spencer

My little man

December 4, 2013

Maxwell is growing up too fast.  He keeps telling me that he’s going to be a real fireman that drives a bucket firetruck when he’s a grown-up when he’s 5. I have to say, 5 sounds pretty grown up to me too and I wish time would slow down.  My little boy is turning into a little man.  See?…

I’m going to blink and he’ll be shaving for real.  For now, I’m just going to soak up this time when he’s 3…or “free” as he says.  Yea, he’s still my baby.  Slow down time!

It’s beginning to look

December 3, 2013

a lot like Christmas!  As soon as we got back from Montgomery, we started pulling out the Christmas decorations!  First up?  The new little tree in Maxwell’s room!

He’s loved it and he’s been sleeping with it all lit up every night!

Saturday morning we headed out to get our real tree…

We picked the best 6 footer out there!

We got home and got it in the house (even though Spencer would have been fine just getting to play with the stand all day!)

and then I got it all decorated during the AL/Auburn game with Maxwell’s “help”. Yea, I was glad to have a project to distract me a bit during the game.  That was QUITE a showdown.  Wish it had turned out differently but, you can’t win em all I guess.  Roll Tide!

I think it’s the best tree yet, don’t you?

I changed a few of our decorations up a bit this year like this mantle…

and a couple of other things mainly just to keep the decorations out of the way of grabby little hands!

Saturday night we even busted out the new Christmas pi’s!

I love having the decorations up and all the Christmas cheer in the house!
