OH Ho Ho Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas and Well Wishes to you and your families this year from the Lambsons.

We have a had a great year. 

Britton started Graduate school and is enjoying that, as much as one can enjoy going to school while your wife and two year old are demanding your attention at the same time. But he did great and is already registered for next semester so only 2 more to go! 

I am able to "work" from home tutoring and playing with Conway and Elle. We continue to make it a tradition to move at least once a year. But we are hoping to break that tradition and stay here for a couple of years. We are all loving our new house and the space. Our hide and seek game has really stepped up. :) 

Conway is an energetic and fun kid, not a baby. (He tells us regularly "Elle baby, Conway kid." Got it.) Hiss other cute phrase is when he agrees with your plan he says, "O.K. Deal" with the thumbs up sign. "Conway do you want me to get your something to drink?" "O.K. Good Deal, Mom" " Let's watch a movie and sit on the couch for a bit."  "O.K. Deal" thumbs up. "I need to go to the store and buy more fruit snacks." "O.K. Great Deal!" "Time for naps, Conway." "No Conway happy, no naps" We are adjusting to the big bed and staying in it. He is quick to say sorry to Elle when she cries, which we count as a good improvement.

 

Elle is so sweet. She loves to talk and will carry on a conversation with anyone that will make eye contact. She is a good eater and growing fast. Moving out of the 3 month clothes already. And I have asked her, she says she likes wearing pink everyday, which makes Momma happy. Her eyes started out a colorless maybe gray but  now turn blue, green, gray, brown depending on the day. Britton's big blue eye gene just does not want to give up so quickly in our kids.
