Come on, December!

In addition to the obvious reasons to look ahead to December - Christmas, family traditions, birthdays - I realize that November's posts have been full of frustration and anxiety.  Perhaps not entertaining reading, but life is like that, I guess.  I appreciate all of the supportive comments, phone calls and emails that I've received.  I feel like such a whinger.

So, I'm excited to wipe that slate clean and move forward.  My sister sent me this pic of Milo over the weekend.  Now, I know I'm this munchkin's aunt, which may make me a little biased.  But, seriously, have you EVER seen ANY baby cuter than him?  Even Joey said last night, I don't normally get all mooshy about babies, but he's the cutest little bugger I've ever seen.

Just waking up from a nap.

I can't wait to get my hands on him.  Two weeks.

And, as I was browsing through my blogs this morning, I found this picture on Obbie's blog.  I feel so lucky to have ALL our family coming this Christmas.  This year, Poo's boyfriend, Rob, will be with us all. I'm delighted to have him in our family.  The kids are excited, too.  We've had lots of talks of sleepovers, skateboarding, etc.

Milo in the baby bjorn that Cally used.  Obbie with Max and his skateboard.

I'm feeling better already.
