This Christmas was so much fun now that Michael is old enough to understand what's going on. The poor little guy came down with pink eye just a few days before Christmas so the eye drop thing put a damper on things, but he is doing well and wasn't contagious by Christmas morning. We spent time with all our family members here that day and let's just say we were all a little spoiled this year for Christmas. Michael was especially spoiled however. Lol. From Mommy and Daddy, he got a baseball tee and bat, bounce and spin zebra, his first Craftsman tool bench, a bistro grill, and a leap frog dog. From other family members, he got Kota the Triceratops (he eats his leaf, if you rub under his chin he growls like he likes it and his tail wags, if you growl at it then he growls back, and more), a puzzle, a tractor with a rider and his dog, the leap frog tag reading system, a tonka truck and railroad system, a Barney doll and DVD, some interactive books as well as a couple new bedtime books, new Thomas the Tank Engine PJ's, some more balls, some bath toys, and some clothes. Mike and I are starting to wonder where we will put it all in the new house. Lol. We bought the Your Baby Can Read set a few months ago and haven't been incredible about keeping up on it, but this weekend Michael actually read the words "tiger" and "dog" (literally, just the word popped up on the TV screen without them saying anything or showing a picture). It was so exciting at only 18 months that it is working. His vocabulary is getting so big and he says new words every day. Cooper is getting so big, he's now the size of a small pomeranian and he's a total ball of energy, but a total sweetheart (and he's amazing with Michael). As far as the house goes, the inspection is being done this morning and if all goes well, we will be set to close on time and we can begin getting things set for the move in date. Life is going great for us right now and we look forward to everything coming up in the near future as well!
