Jalen loves the snow so much...we need to get him a snowsuit and boots so he can really play in it next time.

This one's for Grammie...

When we got home today we had 2 boxes on our door step with some gifts and Jalen tried so hard to pick them up and put them under the tree, of course I didn't get it on camera the first time around so after trying to prompt him to do it again, this is what I got....some climbing, falling, dancing, clapping and a bit fussy at the end. Enjoy!

13 Months Old

I apologize for the time lapse since my last posting but we have had a lot going on here and time is just flying by with the holidays! Jalen is now 13 mths old and growing up so much, he is running all over the place, jabbering all day and night, laughs all the time (big belly laughs) and is still loving his daycare. My parents were out here for Thanksgiving and Jason's parents will be here the day fater Christmas until New Years Eve, we are so excited and are sure Nana and Boompa are too since they haven't seen Jalen since we moved in Sept and are going to see a whole new Jalen when they get here. Kim and Rob are visiting us right now from Houston and we have had so much fun with them, we'll miss them when they leave tomorrow. Here are some pictures from the past week and the pictures from the time between my last post and this one can all be found on my facebook.
