Merry Christmas!

When your family doesn't live in Richmond, you get to stretch out Christmas for more than just the day!  Yaya and G joined us in Richmond the Tuesday before Christmas--just in time for Mommy and Daddy to get strep throat.  Not a present I had expected.  But, thank goodness for a little extra help around the house. Mason didn't get strep throat--but instead got his pre-molars.  Man, those teeth are huge!
We traveled to Birmingham on Sunday night and had Christmas with ST's side of the family last night.  Mason loves, loves, loves his cousins and does exactly what he is supposed to do--mimics them!
Mason has continued to have a verbal explosion and we love it.  He's beginning to string two words together.  (He also has started to use the word-NO a bit more, but I don't like to talk about that :) !)
Every day is another adventure with our Mason man.  We're so blessed to see him grow and learn.
He made Christmas magical.  I'm so proud of him knowing about Baby Jesus-even before he knew who Santa was.  He'll continue to bless us in the new year.  Now, to play with our Birmingham family and friends.  Ahhh, vacation!
