Dec. 9/ Feria and Where's the Wisemen game

Wisemen made it into the Fridge!

Michael is loving our Where's the wisemen game! Its so great to watch little ones so excited with Advent activities.

behold the Lord shall come to save the nations: and the Lord shall make the glory of His voice to be heard, in the joy of your heart. (Ps. 79: 2

Advent is moving rather quickly. This has been one of the most spiritual and prayerful Advents, as a family we have had to get back to basics to provide an Advent that is not about the coming of presents, or Secular. We are doing as many activities as a family to strengthen the soul in preparation of what the true meaning of Christmas is.

We put together a group of little children for a Nativity Pagent. We will take that to a retirement home. Last year we met a 100 year old woman. This year Michael is one of the narrators, Rosie is Mary, Tony a shepherd and Gwena a cow for the stable.

We are teaching the little children, Away in the Manger and Joy to the World, as the big kids are practicing their choir and the other kids their Christmas program, we are all busy working towards that. Well off for a new day, God Bless You my friends.

Tony's Milestones

Newborn-baptism with Doug and Beth Hipps as godparents 2 weeks-first bath 1 month-loves to sleep with Mommy 2 months--smiles big and happily finally nursing well 5month says Mama and Dada the following week 5 months-6months he sits, a little with help and finally without, but we still have to be careful--he pulls himself back 6 months, sleeps 9-5am about once/twice a week, but wakes up just to nurse the rest of the time and goes back to sleep. 6months sleeps in his own bed majority of the time. 6months finally likes tummy time and inch worms 6mo does a crazy shake rattle and roll when he's excited...all hyper like, so cute! 7mo waves, reaches to be picked up, says "Hi" and is eating table food-he prefers to feed himself. 8mo. Saying Dada and getting on his knees rocking back and forth. Loves to eat. Says MMMM--ama! and signs when he wants to eat with his hand to his mouth. 9mo. Tony crawls, waves and claps. 10mo. Tony pulls himself to stand, gets his first tooth. Very happy to be able to go, go, go. Sleeps in the boys room now. At 11mo tony is like a rhino...charge! This week its been Mommy, Mommy, Mommy...have to admit...I love hearing him say it.

Milestones

Rosa 4 months says Mama
5 months says Dada
6 months sits unaided, laughs, plays with toys and watches Play with me Sesame.
Jackie bathes her, Carolyn sings to her, Katelyn rocks her and the little kids love to play with her. She's a Mama's girl right now and may be teething.
7 months Rosa reaches for her own toys and plays so nicely on her own
8 months Rosa is beginning to crawl and has her first tooth!
9 months has her second tooth. She crawls everywhere, talks...today she said "I did it", she chases the vacuum cleaner, cruises along furniture and even lifts her leg over a ride on toy and got on.
