Charlie celebrated his first Thanksgiving, took his first trip to Virginia for his first wedding, and saw his very first snow!!
Our little guy will be 8 months old tomorrow! He's been crawling for about 6 weeks now and has just started crawling up the stairs!
We have been listening to so much Christmas music, which I LOOOVE, and there is one song that is my favorite this year... Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep. It reminds me that we truly are so very blessed for so many reasons.
We are looking forward to these final days leading up to Charlie's first Christmas! My parents are coming to visit this weekend, Jeff only has 2 days of work next week, and everyone is so excited for our first Christmas morning with our little one.
In case I don't manage another post before, MERRY CHRISTMAS and may you all fall asleep counting your blessings!
Finally! Charlie catches Snappers' tail!
But how does it taste?
