Gingerbread

Robert and I watched a special on gingerbread houses and as always withthe food channel we were inspired. This time it was more Robert. He went nuts and decided to build his own gingerbread house. This is only the first. He has another one in progress. It turned out really well. We melted sugar to make windows and are still looking for candies to decorate the house with. I think we have a new tradition!

Our big boy

Alestair is growing so big. He is now able to pull himself up on things like people and toys (a little harder than people). He also has figured out that he can roll across the room. This is a bit worrysome to Robert and I as we didn't expect him to be so quick on things like this but I guess we had no choice we should have known when the OB told us that he was a very active baby before he was even born. I love when he sleeps although now he is so into rolling that he gets himself stuck in his blankets even if you tuck them down the sides of his crib. We have to tie his arms down in his blankets when we first lay him down or he will play with his binky and make helicopter nosies until he is frusterated that he is too tired to sleep.

Reading Space

Since we were able to rearrage furiture when we brought it back into the living room. We found space for a small reading chair and table.

As you can see Alestair likes it as well as Robert and I.
