Catching up...

We spent Thanksgiving in Dallas with my family and Evan enjoyed Grandma's sweet potatoes and pumpkin pie! I always enjoy my visits to Dallas and hate leaving to go back to Lubbock. When we were back in Lubbock, we took Evan to see Santa and he did really well!
Evan turned 10 months old on Dec. 5th. I cannot believe how big my once 5 lb baby boy is. He greets us in the morning with a big grin, hug and lots of big, wet kisses. A lot of the times during the day he gets so excited and grabs my face and kisses me. I know, I know...what a sweet boy!! He is getting very brave these days...and I have to watch him really closely. He pulls himself onto the furniture and lets go to take off running (he's doing really well learning to walk). A lot of head bumps have been happening :-/ He also has 2 more teeth coming in at the top. I feel very lucky that he is still sleeping 12 hours every night...makes me wonder what baby #2 is going to be like haha Oh yes, and Evan loves to stick out his tongue whenever he sees the camera!
We are spending Christmas in New Mexico to visit Jason's family and then going to Dallas for New Years. This will be my first Christmas away from my family...I know it's going to be hard but it will also be fun to watch Evan eat the wrapping paper (which he is already doing-and he's already opened a few presents that I've had to re-wrap). I can't think of anything else that has happened so I will post more after Christmas. Happy Holidays everyone!!!!!!!
