Petite Vieke: How Time Flies...

Where has the time gone? Since my last post we have been very busy, but who isn't at this time of year? Most importantly we had a great time at the annual Clark girls Christmas weekend at the cabin! The fun kicked off on Friday morning as Stevie, Jameson and I headed out to the cabin bright and early and were greeted by our mom's, aunts and Bebe at the cabin which was very festively decorated. We didn't stay long though as we headed out for delicious sushi and grocery shopping. The sushi was amazing! We had our waitress surprise us with 6 rolls that weren't on the menu and each one was delicious. And of course we loaded up on their specialty salad dressing that is so yummy.

After that we headed back to the cabin and got all snuggled in. The rest of our party arrived and we could officially start the fun. Of course crafts and games were on the agenda and this year I felt that we did much less eating, which isn't to say that I still didn't overeat! All in all it was another great year and Jameson was practically bruised from being passed around so much ;) As always, I can't wait for next year.

We were pretty worn out from the weekend and spent a day recuperating. We had a few lunch dates this week and Jameson even got to visit Santa! I wasn't really planning on having a visit with Santa this year, because Jameson is so young and the lines are always so long, but it must have been our lucky day because as we were walking around the Hamilton Town Center we spotted Santa and there wasn't a single person waiting in line! We were in and out in less than 5 minutes! So it was kind of impromptu but the picture is just precious.

I put Jameson on the scale with my on Friday and he was weighing in at 13.4 pounds! I cannot believe it. He is still wearing a lot of 0-3 months but I decided to go ahead and wash his 3 month outfits and to my surprise he fits into many of them just perfectly! How can that be? I'm just glad I went ahead and washed them so he can at least get a few wears out them. We are bordering on size 2 diapers. He still has a few size 1's left that I have been putting them in but I bet that the size to diapers feel a little more comfortable. We've also got a pretty comfortable routine going. Most nights, Jameson sleeps from around 11 to 7 am. All in all, he continues to be a very sweet little guy. I try not to get to happy when I report that he is a very good baby because I don't want him to change but he is a very good baby and he brings us so much joy. He has become very interactive and smiles and coos. He has found his hands and likes to suck on any fingers he can get into his mouth. I went in to wake him up one morning this weekend and he had his thumb in his mouth (which he gets from his Uncle Will). It was so precious but of course by the time I got my camera ready the moment had passed.

We've been running all over town finishing up last minute Christmas shopping and errands. Jameson spent the day on Sunday with my parents as Jake and I shopped and went to a movie. And today he got to spend some time with Jake's mom and brother Matthew while I went to a doctors appointment and ran a few more errands. We can't wait to celebrate Christmas all weekend long. We have quite a few parties on the agenda and look forward to seeing everyone. Hope everyone has great holidays!!
