We went driving through a neighborhood near ours to see if they'd done any decorating worth looking at and we found the saddest display of Christmas lights I've ever seen...

Matthew has discovered the joy that is the front yard. Especially with all of the cool lawn ornaments we have out right now.

We took him out at night so he could see the lights and dance around to the music we play. He had a great time. This coat was given to him by Auntie Val last Christmas and it's been cold enough for him wear it a couple of times. He kind of looks like the kid from Christmas Story and he has a hard time keeping his balance when he wears it.




I just think he looks so cute in his pj's. Also, the toy he's dragging around is the mirror I used to have in the car when he was in his infant car seat so I could check on him while driving. It plays music and he loves that music as much now as he did when we had it in the car.

Ok, so Matthew is horrible at taking bites of food when he's handed something that is too big to eat in one bite. Well, yesterday Grandma Maudie handed him a mini croissant and we kept telling him to take bites. He took one initial bite and then this followed:





Yeah, he's a good time. He managed to finish it off and he didn't choke on anything.
Elise got her first pair of shoes this weekend. It may seem a bit silly, but we will be wrapping them and putting them under the tree for her. She will also get a couple of stocking stuffers. We know it's more for us than anything but we really want to acknowledge her even though she's not here yet. She also got her stocking this weekend =).

Well, it looks like everyone thinks Matthew looks more like Gilbert. I agree =). The pictures are still posted below and you can still vote on the left until the end of the week.
