December 12 = Healthy Eater Day

Here's Liam casually chomping on a tomato.

December 10 = Blanket Thief

This girl has stolen my blanket! This blanket is 30 years old... if my house were on fire, I would make sure the children and pets were out and then this would be the one thing I would go back in for. And now my littlest has stolen it. Because I will risk life and limb to get it but waking a sleeping baby? Not worth that.

December 6 = AWANA Day

First this:

Tonight, in AWANA, Liam got to play some drums. His helper sent me these pictures she took :)

December 2 = Family Picture Day

Oh my goodness- so the church we go to- King Grant's Fellowship- has a program where they have a photographer and a Santa and they decorate and they have families with kids with special needs come in and give them a family picture. It's amazing. The lady that coordinates it has a son on the spectrum and so she understands how difficult it can be to get a good family picture. So they have volunteers to get the kids' attention- they have stuff to keep the kids occupied before picture time so they're not "over it" by the time the camera's ready. And this is now one of my most prized possessions:

December 1 = Make New Friends Day

Liam loves sitting next to new people at his therapy appointments. Usually, as in this case, they are very nice and talk to him a bit until he goes back to his appointment. He's such a sweet boy.

I got a bit nostalgic today so I looked at pictures of all the kids around 6 months- here's what we've got:

Also this:

I asked Malia to bring Kayleigh a toy- here's what we got:

Rosie loves her Kayleigh:

November 30 = Kayleigh's Famous Day

Sleeping babyyyyy:

Malia in Liam's old Minion Christmas shirt:

Look! Kayleigh made the UNC Alumni magazine!

So we got these Christmas clothes thinking she'd fit in them for a little while... let's just say we're taking pictures now because we don't know if she'll fit 26 days from now...
