I gave Brigham a rattle to hold and he played with it for a good 10 minutes. It was so sweet:) He's 3 1/2 months now. Over the last week, he has done a lot of new things: Rolled from tummy to back all by himself, laughed out loud (a real laugh this time, not just high pitch squealing/"haaauuh" like he usually does), and grabbing and holding more things with his hands. It's exciting to see him growing and figuring out how to do things!

It's Almost Winter

Over the weekend, Ted and I went to The Legends Mall by Kansas City. Neither of us had ever been there, so we walked around and discovered some really neat stores/restaurants. The place above is called "T-Rex." It has all sorts of dinos and other prehistoric animals covering the walls and hanging from the ceiling. And they all move! Even the lady bugs and grasshoppers were fluttering their wings if you looked close enough. It was very cool. I want to come back some time when we have a group of people and we can all sit under the giant jellyfish booth that you can sort of see in the background of the picture.
We got our Christmas tree up and decorated this week! Milo's panther ornament was put on the tree by Milo himself. And Brigham's first ornament is a StarWars Rebel Snowspeeder (whatever that is, but Ted seems to know all about it and says Brigs will love it when he's older and can play with it) Our lights outside are up on the house, and we even decorated the new arch in the backyard. It's getting very festive around here. Just got some Celtic Christmas cd's in the mail today:) And if I don't get around to it tonight, tomorrow I'm going to bake SuGaR CoOkIeS!!

Morehice Meet-up

It's a new year, and I do feel refreshed and energized! I think that's partly due to this past week of reflection, rest...
