sleepy

You know your baby is tired when of his own volition he snuggles up with his "guggle bear" in a chair & wraps himself in a quilt. Poor thing.

happy thanksgiving!

We began a new tradition this year that we're very excited about: the Thankfulness Tree. We cut out a bunch of paper leaves & we all wrote down the things that we were thankful for, & encouraged our dinner guests to do the same. Xavier is thankful for Kim, Mama, Papa & Beeber (Victor in Xavier-speak). I am thankful for Xavier, Matt, our beautiful home & a wonderful family of friends. Happy Thanksgiving!

it's a dress!

It's amazing what fun can be had from a simple stretch of silky fabric....
