Merry Christmas

We’ve had a fun few days already. We’re now on leg two of our Midwest trip. Christmas we split between Emily’s family and my family. Sam is his usual charming self and is (a small miracle we accept) sleeping later into the morning (8ish). It’s been nice to have some extra pairs of arms to hold him and play with him.

Last night at the Christmas Eve service he played through about the first forty-five minutes but then was restless. I went downstairs and walked him around the fellowship hall. Holding his hands, he was able to step his way along with me for nearly the whole perimeter. He can also balance by himself on his legs—not for long, but for ten or fifteen seconds. I think he’s going to be a little runner soon.

We’re wishing you all a merry Christmas. This has been an exciting 2008 in our (expanded) family.
