Well, it's a couple days till Mabels first xmas and we couldn't be more excited. Santa has come early it looks like and she has a whole butt load of presents under the tere waiting to be ripped into (even though she's already gotten her little hands on some of the wrapping paper). Alot of things have been going on lately-she is starting to pull herself up and stand up on her own which has got mommy and I very happy and also scared doodooless, and yesterday she started waving at the neighbor while he snowblowed his driveway and not ours and then did the same today while her and I were walking through the mall shopping for mommy to atleast 100 people. Mommy is doing great btw, working alot more now that daddy is in search of a new job bc of a certain low rate cobjob construction company doesn't believe in the holiday spirt of "good tidings to all." Anyways we can't wait for this week and all the exciting moments that are going to take place, we will be going to Herkimer on weds to have xmas eve dinner at Mabels great grandparents and her entire family and then back to albany for a quiet Christmas morning with just the three of us opening presents. That night depending on weather we will be headed to Cape Vincent to see Nana and Boppa as well hopefully. Hope you all have a happy holiday season and we will post more photos after the season is over.
