WOW, how time flies.
Johnny is already 3 months old! December was a really fun month. We started figuring out our own holiday traditions and spent a lot of quality time watching our little man grow, laugh, play and be amazing.
It all started with loading up the family sleigh and heading to the Christmas tree farm in Carnation. We visited Santa and picked out our beautiful tree. We also got to introduce Johnny to his Great Grandma Char on the way home. Johnny loved listening to her talk to him. It was pretty cute.
He had his first Christmas at home and shared that special day with Dad, Mom, Papa and Grandma. He's worn many holiday suits. On Christmas Eve and Christmas he wore his Santa suit. He also had his holiday pj's that were so cozy he slept a straight 7 hours on Christmas Eve and 8 hours on Christmas night. A Christmas present for Mom and Dad. He was spoiled (well deserved) and has many toys to play with once he gets a bit bigger. Thank you everyone. We look forward to celebrating Christmas in Maine next year.

Since last month, he has gotten even more smiley and so strong. He's already trying his bumbo. He likes to sit in it with his tray of toys and hang out. He still loves his keys and loves to suck on his fingers. Sometimes he even gags himself (we are working on this one with him). He actually seems to like tummy time and has rolled from his tummy to his back 4 times now. He laughs at all our jokes and makes the best faces at us. He has daddy time and they love to look in the mirror, read and just have guy talk. Everyday is wonderful with him in it..... Johnny we love you!
But back to work for me next week. Our nanny share begins on the 9th. Truman and Johnny will get to play each day while the mommies go back to work. We have a great feeling about our new nanny Ix-Chel and look forward to her starting and being a part of our life. I am still able to work from home when I need and will do that about 2-3 days a week.
What's upcoming : Our next Dr. visit is at the end of Jan. We will have updates on his stats then. Johnny will meet Declan (The Malcom's new baby boy), Sarah's baby shower is at the beginning of Feb. and Aunt Nicole will be here in mid February to finally meet Johnny.
Fun times ahead... Stay tuned.
