friday favorites.

lucas' most favorite spot at the mh library. He sees the window after story time and he beelines it, climbs up, and then looks out the window. After he's seen all he can see, he plops down to read. I love it.

Some favorites from the week....

caleb singing 'the Gloria' from church all week "Glory to ,God Glory to God, Glory to God in the highest...heaven on earth, peace on earth, peace to people everywhere. I love that he loves to sing, and I love that he loves church. I love his sweet child like faith and love for Jesus. From the Gloria he goes right into "Jesus Loves Me" here is some of his rendition of the "Gloria"  captured on camera at the very end (from my phone so not the best quality, and my finger is in part of it! it is hard to hear him, but if you listen closely you'll hear him singing it at the end of the video and then the camera cut me off from getting the rest of his song. sorry!)

another favorite....lucas walking everywhere. I love how he'll fall down and then pick himself right back up and walk real quick like, but it is the way he walks, I can't explain it, but too cute for words, especially when he's in nothing but a diaper! here is a glimpse of that (i hope to get a better video of him walking soon!)

some other favorites....
reading some Christmas themed novels (for myself). I love being able to read in the evening time once the boys go to bed...or when they are napping...sometimes even while they are happily playing!

decorating the house for Christmas, watching the boys help daddy with the lights outside.

the rain and the cozy feeling of being snug and warm inside

finishing up Christmas presents!! the boys picked out their gift of chickens for another child in the world. We finished up finding presents for our 'adopted' little boy and little girl from church and bible study (we usually pick two children the boys' age so that it comes from them....this year I chose a little girl and a little boy instead of two boys...just cause I love buying for little girls! baby dolls are my favorite.)
 I am ready to wrap up all our gifts and put them under our tree! (which will hopefully be picked this weekend)

another favorite, story time with Lucas...his dancing and clapping and big smile that stayed on his face through all of story time. I love that I am able to take him on Thursdays while Caleb does OT.

Last favorite moment of the week...Caleb's "I love you so much Mom" that he's been saying daily...followed by hugs and kisses. Just can't get enough of his sweetness.

Happy Friday!
