It has been kind of chaotic around our house lately. Levi turned one last Thursday! I can't believe it has already been a year since I was holding him for the first time in the hospital. He is such a beautiful little boy.
The kids are getting very excited about Christmas. They love taking the ornaments and garland off of the tree. And I just love having to redecorate the tree every day. The cat has broken the bottom half of the tree. My tree limbs are hanging limply and pointing to the ground. No way to fix it. I may throw it out after Christmas and just get real trees from now on.
We have a count down to Christmas calendar and the kids love to move the star every morning and count how many days are left. I love seeing their excitement. It's contagious! I am getting into the holiday spirit too. I love baking this time of year. The smell of spices in the air is amazing. I bake a lot. Mostly so that the house smells intoxicating. But also to give to my neighbors a little treat. We have great neighbors. The boys next door shovel our walkway and driveway a lot. Such nice boys. So I repay them by bringing them cookies. They're teenage boys who love to eat. And eat and eat and eat. So I figure cookies are an okay gift. :)
Levi has his one year check up tomorrow. I will post again soon and let ya'll know how it goes. :)
