I haven't posted anything in a while. This being a work from home mom business doesn't leave me much free time. Who would guess?

We decided that cutting down our own tree this year required too much effort. So although our tree doesn't compare to the one we hunted down in woods (someones yard) last year, it does the job. Graham decided to decorate the tree on his own which of course gave the perfectionist in me anxiety in the beginning, but now it's sort of sweet to look at in an avant-garde way. Perhaps Picasso placed the majority of his ornaments on one side of the tree?

Baby is growing fast. An original statement, I know... He likes to talk, scream, yell, squeal, blow strawberries, grunt, sigh, growl, grumble, sing, and make dinosaur calls. He also enjoys a good roll around on the floor but gets irritated when he finds himself on his tummy for too long. He has taken to slapping himself with toys, finds great joy in coughing and sneezing, enjoys taking frequent nursing breaks to make sure I am still there, loves to watch wine and beer splash around in a glass, and thinks clothes are an abomination.
