A Peak Inside Our Christmas

We had a fabulous and blessed Christmas. Here are a few pictures from last night and today...

Jayden has nearly put on a pound in two weeks - which is half of the amount he gained in nearly 7 months. Seems the formula is working well! He is even getting a little bit of baby rolls on his legs. It's funny because neither he nor Ethan have ever had any.

The boys are really excited for Christmas. Ethan keeps standing at the window saying, "Santa, oh Santa where are you?" and making little comments during the day about Santa coming when he is sleeping.

Everytime he sees a Christmas tree he says, "Happy dirday Jesus!" and he is so excited to celebrate Jesus' "Happy dirday."

We've been busy making empanadas, Christmas cookies and praying as we await Christmas. (Ethan and Jayden both LOVE the advent candles and Ethan reminds me if I don't light them for a meal).

Merry Christmas to everyone! May 2009 bring many blessings to you all:).

Trains & Jesus' Birthday Party

We've been quite busy and have even gotten out a bit besides the never ending doctors appointments. We've been trying to schedule fun stuff on the way down or home from CHOP so the boys get to have fun too. We went to the Reading Terminal holiday train display before the GI appointment the other day and Ethan went nuts. There were 10 different electric trains running in all these different displays. He was in heaven!

Today we went to baby Jesus' birthday party. I think the pictures were a riot because Jayden (who is supposed to be baby Jesus but refused to stay covered up or lying down) and Ethan (who is the little drummer boy) just stared at the nun taking the pictures. I got them to smile a bit for my camera, but the pic is a little washed out with the flash.

PS: We have to change his tube at least once a week and for the first time, he hadn't pulled it out all week so we chose to take it out today and let him have a day without it. It was great!
