Gram and Gramps got me a coat

Will had a fabulous Christmas. We all did for that fact. He seemed to enjoy opening presents-whether they were his or not. He really seemed in awe when he came out of his room and saw the presents under the tree. He went right for his slide and we had to hide it to finish with the other gifts. He got a lot of nice things for Christmas and has enjoyed playing with them all. Christmas is such a special time and for me the joy is watching Will's excitement. We couldn't of had a better Christmas. We were able to spend it with all of our parents. We are truly blessed.

I'm blessed he's a sleeper...

Earlier this week, Will disappeared into his bedroom. He started called me over and over and over again. I finally walk in there and he had turned his fan on and was standing in front of his crib. I put him in and minutes later he was a sleep. Then on Wednesday we were playing in his room and he looked at me and said night night. So we turned on the fan, and I put him in bed and he went to sleep. I like it- ALOT!

A Funny Story

David and I were sitting at the table finishing dinner. Will had already gotten down and he starts calling me and pointing in the other direction. I get up and say show me what you want. He takes off running toward my chair and climbs up in it. (He lured me out of my chair the little booger). Anyway David starts laughing and says "sucker." Then Will says "gucker."

He has 3 new words. Wouldn't you know they would be food related. He says bapple-apple, bluebe- blueberry and cracker-cracker.

I'll post Christmas pictures soon.

Will is full of himself these days and thinks he runs this place. He’s so cute and so much fun though. He’s starting to say more and more. He is saying Didi (Sidney), juice, mommy, daddy, bye-bye. Night-night, pappaw, tractor, & baby, . He knows many of his animal sounds and understands most everything we tell him.

He is a big help around the house. He’ll unload the dishwasher, put clothes in the dryer, help clear the table, vacuum and swiffer. Do you think he knows it’s almost time for Santa?

He’s been pretty curious about the Christmas tree. He’s done a good job for the most part not touching the ornaments. It’s very tempting though.

We’ve created a time-out corner. I’m not sure it’s real punishing because we’ll find him sitting in it even when he hasn’t been bad. If he does get into some mischief and we holler no, he’ll go sit in time-out before we tell him too. I’m not sure what to think about that.

He has all of his teeth now- except for the 2 year molars- and has for about a month now. Good thing because there’s not much that he won’t eat. I think that he could sit in his high chair all day if the grapes, bananas, cheerios, and fig newtons were in a bottomless bowl.

He doesn’t stop much during the day and doesn’t like to play by himself. He’s certainly a full time job and I’m ready to go bed when he does. There’s a few grandparents out there that will attest to that.

David and I go into his room at night and watch him sleep. He is so peaceful and sweet. He’s our sweetheart and we thank the Lord every night for our sweet little Angel.
