Tis the Season





This month brings many exciting events and such. First, and foremost, we celebrate the birth of our King's birth.  Happy Birthday, Jesus!  We put up our Christmas tree, this year decorating with all sorts of bright colors for the girls to enjoy, topped with our trusty friend, Frosty.  Lexi was dazzled by the lights and has already gotten into the presents under the tree. Of course, Kaylee has noted that the biggest present under the tree is for her!  Little does she know, Santa will be bringing her a MUCH bigger present in a few weeks!




Second, this month I remember my son, Kyle as his 10th birthday approaches on December 24th.  Happy Birthday my sweet boy.  I love you and miss you so terribly much. I ache for you every second of every day.


Over the past few weeks, we have started seeing a change in the weather and enjoying being outside in the bright skies and cool air.  Kaylee, Ryan, Lexi and I are certainly enjoying the togetherness that the season is bringing our way.



We also will be welcoming Lexi into her 11 month of life, yet another miracle!  These past weeks, Lexi has learned to get on all fours and try to crawl. She is getting all over the place and in to everything. She is eating from a spoon. She is loving playing with her sister and Sam.  She has reached 17.6 pounds and is as beautiful as ever.  This month we also brough Lexi to church for the first time.  She was so pretty in her dress that her Gran bought for her before she was born.  I have taken the time this past month to reflect on where she came from, and how far she has come.  I have much to be thankful for this year, because I know that this holiday season just would not be the same without her. We are fortunate that this month the Shriner's accepted our application to their facilities for therapy on Lexi's cerebral palsy.  We are also blessed that we are going to begin in home therapy with the assistance of Early Steps.  That should start in the next few weeks.  Our goal is to have Lexi eating solids independently and crawling to scooting to pulling up, scaling the couch within the next 6 months.  Fingers crossed everybody!



Momma loves her little miracle !





Good tidings to you all during this Christmas Season. From our family to yours, Merry Christmas.  We hope you receive an abundance of blessings and everything for which you wish.
