Happy Holiday season! In the past few weeks, Theo enjoyed his first Thanksgiving and watched us decorate the house for Christmas! He was quite interested in the tree at first, and still occasionally pulls an ornament or two off the bottom of the tree, but now he ignores it for the most part. I think he was mostly excited to find some new things around the house to look at and play with. We almost attended Theo's first Christmas party, but we didn't quite make it... (explanation in photo caption). Jay and I are looking forward to the JCI BE party - a night away from home with food, drinks, and music!
In other news, Theo has 5 teeth and is working on the 6th. He pulls up on anything and everything, and has started to "cruise" along some furniture. And best of all, he says both "dada" and "mama"!
Merry Christmas! December has brought lots more firsts for Theo! Between Christmas parties and Jay's travels, it's been another busy month! One of the highlights for me was the day Jay took the afternoon off from work and let me go Christmas shopping all by myself. It was perfectly timed and an awesome break for me. I think I'm going to try to make it an annual tradition! There are lots more fun times ahead with our families in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Illinois!
