Wow. I have fallen behind with everything that has been going on in the Potter household lately. I suppose I will start with all of the new, sweet things Andrew has been doing lately. As of yesterday he turned 4 months old. He looks like a 10 month old to me. He is huge, with a massive appetite. At the end of his 3rd month, he was eating cereal, applesauce and bananas. He never seems to get full! Giggling and smiling are always almost constant with the little big man. His temperament seems pretty layed back just like his daddy...thank goodness for that! I must say though, at this point in his life he is defiantly a mama's boy. Mike constantly tells me how it amazes him that I can calm him down, or when he hears my voice he lights up....he makes me feel so special:)
Sweet Olivia has been nothing but wonderful with Andrew. It amazes me to see the love she has for him. One day while in the shower, Andrew was napping peacefully...or so I thought! Olivia ran into the bathroom and said "mama, Andrew is awake and crying!" I wrapped up the shower in no time and realized Andrew was no longer crying. I went into the room and Olivia got a stool from her room and put the pacifier back into little brothers mouth. She is such a blessing. I can only hope that the two of them are close when they grow up. It seems they both have a very special bond at even this young tender age.
Ok, so now for Halloween. Miss O dressed up as Tinkerbell (it really was a precious tutu she got for her birthday) and some beautiful wings my mom got for her while he was in Mexico for a visit. She pronounced the was the magic fairy Tinkerbell with out missing a beat. Andrew was a pumpkin, which was actually Olivia's first costume for her first Halloween so it was very special that he wore it. But, he was not a happy pumpkin. He refused to pose with his Tinkerbelle and passed out while we went door to door for some sweet treats. Oh well, it made cute pictures...or so I though!
Our Thanksgiving was wonderful. It was filled with great food and family. I love to be with family, especially during the holidays. Olivia and Andrew had fun with all of their grandparents, cousins, aunts and not to mention parents;) I will post some pictures of the day soon. We are all getting ready for Christmas. We have the tree and decorations up. I love this time of year, it is so magical and for a very special reason. I am going to try this year to send some Christmas cards out of the kiddos. It's a goal of mine since I never have done so in the past. So, if I fail to post until Christmas, I wish all of my family and friends a blessed day. With love, from the Potter familia.
