So it's been a while since I have posted last. Lets see...Nov. 20th was my last post....UM YEAH.

I have tons of pictures I will post tonight from Thanksgiving and some pictures of Brian of course.

Can you believe it's almost Christmas? Wow, where does time go? It doesn't seem like Christmas to me, and maybe thats a good thing since I am one of the biggest BAH HUMBUGS. To me Christmas is bigger than gifts, shopping, and starbucks. I would rather spend this time with my family, have a great meal, sing songs, play board games and just enjoy the time together. But instead it's fighting with family about a TV board game, lemon meringue pies not turning out, endless spending of money we all dont have to try and get the perfect present, and my moms addiction to egg nog lattes. Can everyone all together now say...BAH HUMBUG.

Like I said, maybe it's a good thing this year that I don't seem to feel the stress of Christmas and the hustle and bustle of all the crowds. Knock on wood right?

Brian this past month has bloomed. All I can say is WOW. Brian has always been a fast learner and develops fast. He has always had a big vocabulary and has always been overly independent. This past month he has probably doubled his vocabulary. He is more outspoken these days....YES, I can proudly say he does not get that from me...he gets that from Grammy.

Brian has just reached the "Why" stage of his life. He now asks "Why" about everything....
"Why grandpa are you putting your shoes on?"
"Why mom must I pick up my lego's?"
"Why do I have to keep the lid on my sippy cup?"
The list goes on. But when you answer his "Why" question it than follows with another "But, Why?" you than answer that "But, Why" and than he replies with his hands in the air and cocks his head and looks at you with this I don't get it look...."But Why?"

If I ask him "Brian wheres your shoes?" he 90% of the time looks at me like i'm a moron and says "I don't know". I look at him sometimes and I am just amazed at what he's becoming and growing up to be.

Brian can sing his ABC's, he sings Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, You Are My Sunshine, and Jingle Bells...and I can't forget he that he can sing Taylor Swift songs. We are now working on learning colors. He's my little rock star!!
