Felix and I had a great first Christmas together. So many
fun memories…here are the best:
- Finally getting the go-ahead to share that my brother and his wife are having a baby! They’re due in June, and I’m excited to have another niece or nephew. I’m going to teach Felix some baby-related signs before then – he’ll be 13 months old when the baby’s born.
- Seeing Felix passed out in Grandpa’s lap at church on Christmas Eve and again after opening gifts.

| So many gifts, whew! |
 |
| Church is exciting...zzzz.... |
 |
| He sleeps on grandma, too. |
- Watching Felix hold his own against his 1 year old cousin, the bottle thief. He’s finally starting to stand up for himself!
- Listening to my 6 year old niece sing to Felix when he was crying before bed. She sounded sweet, he screamed louder and then she wondered why I was laughing.
- Listening to my niece tell me how many scoops of formula are needed for the various bottle sizes as I tried to fall asleep, then hearing her whisper-shout, “It’s CHRISTMAS!"
- Hearing my sister-in-law scream when my niece brought a dead bird into the house on her new fluffy pink gloves. "What? It's a dead bird." (Grandpa is an ornithologist, to be fair.)
 |
| I shall use these hands to save birds! |
- Watching the boys eat snow for the first time on Christmas Day, from Grandpa’s hand. It was so sweet seeing each of them grab a little white clump out and try to eat it before it melted.
