November & December
We made some great holiday memories together. We also spend some good time with family. I attended a really cool event for business in November and one of my favorite authors did a really cool event in Nashville. Our friend Hunter did an Enneagram Retreat which was awesome to attend! This year it was our second year doing a real Christmas tree! It was also our first Holiday season where we stayed home for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Two Christmas concerts that were amazing that Christopher put on! First time we hosted Christmas at our place this year. It was fun and chaos all mixed together. But I think it was great! Thankful to end a really succesful year being on a trip to Chattanooga with Christopher celebrating 10 years together and planning and preparing for 2018!
**Funny/Sweet Story's of the month (I remembered to write down)**
When we are on Facetime the other day talking to grandparents. She was "reading" to them and when she ended the story...they said, "Francine who gave you that book?" And she said, "I dont know if it was Jesus or Santa". Another one of Francine being silly is she was reading the Advent book and she said "And Joseph told the reindeer to go up the mountain"
Jack was telling me about a song in the cars movie and he said the word "vroom" and he said I don’t think they speak the same language...I think they speak England!
#Jackamadeus - BIG BROTHER update!
- Highlight - Jack asked at bedtime one night, "after you turn 99 do you turn zero again?"
- Personality/Growing up - When jack was 3 he want to be a train conductor. Early 4s he wanted to be an astronaut, doctor, and train conductor. Late 4s (Christmas this year) he said he want to be a raise car driver. He's growing up!
- Learning - We were driving in the car and Francine saw the train on the side of the highway and she said why is it not moving and Jack said because it doesn’t want to...he wants to take a break!
#Francineclaire - LITTLE SIS update!
- Highlight - Thanksgiving day Francine decided to jump out of her crib for the first time...so now she is in a big girl bed.
- Personality/Growing up - She is very demonstrative and when she is telling stories she always used the word "HUGE" except she says HHEEEWWWJJJJ!
- Skills - She loved Christmas as does all toddlers. But at one point before Christmas we asked her where Santa got the presents from and she "Jesus gives them to him". She is also getting really smart and logical (SOMETIMES) in her thinking. Before bed one night, we were singing Away in A Manger and Twinkle Twinkle (As we have for the past 365 days....only this time she said, "Mommy did you know that both of those songs talk about stars in the sky?"
