November was a good month. Cami finished soccer and we had a wonderful break for Thanksgiving. For Thanksgiving day we got together with friends at the church for a potluck and there was lots of yummy food. Saturday after Thanksgiving we drove up to San Antonio to go to the temple which was awesome for me since I haven't been since before Ollie was born. It is difficult when it is 2 1/2 hours away and you have kids, and Cami has had soccer games every Saturday for the past 2 months. JD celebrated his 2 year anniversary at work, and we went to his Christmas work party which was a nice date. We had one other movie date night to see the new JK Rowlings movie Fantastic Beasts, which was fun and our first real date since Ollie came :). Ollie celebrated 3 then 4 months since my last post and is laughing so much now and is a pretty happy boy. He usually only wakes 1-2 times a night and is rolling and moving so much now. He still hasn't figured out how to roll from his tummy to his back, but he rolls onto his tummy all the time. He is a pretty spitty baby so they started him on some meds at his appt last week and I am not sure they are helping yet, but I will cross my fingers. He is a pretty happy vocal little guy and we sure love him. He is very social and loves to smile at people. He loves to watch Cami and JD. He sits up pretty well in his bumbo and high chair, but topples easily on his own. He wants to suck on everything near his mouth and drools or spits up all the time. He wants to be the center of attention and does not like to be left to play on his own. Cami is doing really well in school and has been doing GT projects with her teacher. She is a great reader and often does old math or science workbooks at home by her own choice. She has such a neat desire to learn!
Cami wanted to pose with Dad with her sunglasses! Such a funny girl!
Family pizza and a movie night! We do it every Friday and I am a big fan! Also I am pretty good at making deep dish pizza!
Duck Duck goose shenanigans after the last game.
Cami was thrilled she got a trophy and not a medal this time! Not sure it means anything different but Cami was very proud!
Such a fun team and awesome coach! Can't wait till spring to play again together!
Cami worked on memorizing all the Articles of Faith songs and passed them off so she could cut the Bishop's tie in primary!
Decorating for Christmas in our House!!!! I love having our own place to decorate!
Ice cream party with her soccer team!
Ollie just being cute!
Saturday crafts to keep Cami busy, also I found it for free by the road, so why not?
Our Thankful tree. I love this tradition and this year we did it a little different and I liked it even more! We truly have so much to be thankful for.
Sometimes he sucks his thumb. He is so cute, although I am generally opposed to thumb sucking, he doesn't do it all the time and will still take a binky so I am good with it.
Christmas in Portland is a community event they do every year and although there are lots of people there it is fun so we went. Cami had lots of fun decorating cookies, writing to Santa, playing games, making crafts, playing in the snow tent and riding a tube down the snow slide. Also we went with friends so that made it great!
They also do a parade of lights so we went to that and got some candy and saw some neat floats and lights!
I can hardly believe Ollie is 4 months already. We love him so very much and are so grateful for our happy baby!
We are excited to be headed to Idaho this weekend to spend Christmas break with family! JD wont be able to join us till next Friday, but we are glad he gets to come for half of it at least!
