Transitioning...





In January, G Little made the transition to the 2 year old room at his school. Maybe you can blame it on my over reaction as a first time Momma...or the stage of life...but this has been the hardest room for him to adjust. His teachers aren't quite as lovey as the previous ones and the class is FULL which is something knew to us. We have been blessed so far to have smaller class sizes so he's adjusting to the reduction in attention...dealing with bigger kids, not napping very well and learing new tasks like drinking out of a cup. We got two reports this past week that he's been very talkative and interrupting class...I wonder who he got that from! :) But I will say how amazing it is to listen to his speech blossom by being with the bigger kids in his class (I know one day I won't be saying that when he learns additional vocabulary!). Everday its something knew....and his new phrases include...Momma that's fun! What are you doing? And he will tell you to "seat" or "help"... now can name the trains for Thomas the train. And buddy will he repeat a word over and over until you listen or take the action he wants!


Mowing grass is so dangerous you need to wear your helmet :)



Sorry this picture is out of focused...practicing but I love his cheesy grin!

Christmas Recap

What a great holiday season! We love all our traditions of celebrating with family and friends. I don't have near the photos I should of taken to capture it all. We did our annual trip to see Santa in downtown Acworth with the Tharpes and had our small family Christmas celebrations with Amanda and the Davis. We even added a new tradition (Matt objects but he will get over it) of going to ride the pink pig...an Atlanta Christmas tradition. We made birthday cupcakes with Josh and Nana on Christmas Eve and then I watched as my dad ruined any hopes of Gavin eating on Christmas Day with cookies and milk for breakfast. We thoroughly enjoyed celebrating with our families...and so glad we were able to catch up with the Kansas cousins...Kash Man and G Little had a blast dancing away on the pool table. We will have to watch out for the ladies!

Here's G Little enoying his Christmas cookies...in his favorite spot at my parents...
