Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! Love, 3 Fleas
I love this pic - I don't look that great in it, but Drew has my hair in his mouth and was acting silly! Cutie.
This year we had Christmas at our house. We thought that hosting was a lot easier than traveling with a toddler! We had a great time, but missed the Poths!
"Matching" Christmas PJs turned into "semi-coordinated" PJs this year (snowflake theme). Finding PJs that match is harder than I thought!

'Twas the Night Before Christmas




Lesson learned: Save the big/fun present for last! Drew saw his Cozy Coupe from Mimi and Pops and that was it - he had NO interest in any other presents! He didn't even do his stocking until right before bed. Also, ignore Drew's stocking. I have been "working" on a handmade one for almost 2 years now. Ooopsie. Hopefully, by the time it's done he won't remember that he had a Big Lots stocking for the first few years of his life (not that boys notice that stuff anyway)!
Mimi and Pops!

Mimi was more into opening presents than Drew was.... ;)

Happy Halloween!

Hats off to Halloween! Drew loved it!
We went trick-or-treating with our new friends (former neighbors at the apt we lived in when we first moved here). They are from Belarus and had never trick-or-treated before!
Moseyin' on up for some treats!
Drew and his lil buddy with their dads


He looks just thrilled to have his picture taken!






Happy Halloween!

October!

I took Drew to Pigtails and Crewcuts for his first "professional" haircut. He had school pictures at MDO and needed to look extra spiffy. This is the salon that my friend, Andrea, owns. Drew LOVED the cars.

Rockin his Faux Hawk


Our MOPS group went to a pumpkin patch a few weeks ago. Drew had a great time pushing around wagons, but then started throwing a "tantrum." I say that in quotes because when we left I discovered that he had about a 4 inch bleeding scratch up his arm!! I couldn't see it because of his long sleeve shirt. So I thought he was throwing a tantrum, when really he was hurt. Poor baby!!!!! It's still healing -- it was a doozie.
Drew and his new bud, Jesse
This does NOT mean he's going to be a Longhorn, folks. Just means we have our work cut out for us... ;)

And...we have mastered the spoon! YAY!!! Big applause for my sweet kiddo! He's been using a spoon for months, but now he really has it down. In this pic, he's almost finished with his applesauce and his bib and hands are pretty much applesauce free. WEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! So proud of him. His favorite way to eat with a spoon (for many, many months) was to hold the spoon in one hand and use the other hand to fingerpaint with the food that he was supposed to use the spoon for. :)
This morning, our MOPS group went trick-or-treating at an assisted living home. Drew was a cowboy and one of his little buddies from MOPS was an Indian and another was a cowgirl. Too cute!
