Roly Poly (Not the Sandwich Shop)

Christopher is a roly poly! For real! He has been able to roll from front to back for months now so I am surprised this hasn't come sooner- changing his diaper is a NIGHTMARE! He will not lay still and just let you change him anymore.  We have like 10 different toys on the other side of the changing pad to grab to dangle over his head or give him when he starts to flip over- but sometimes it works... and sometimes not! Last week I was trying to get him dressed in his room and I kept saying, "Christopher- stop. Christopher- no. Turn over." Matt comes in and says- "Move out of the way." And he changes Christopher in like a minute. Now, though, even Matt struggles with the change!

Christopher got his picture taken with St. Nick last weekend and I absolutely refuse to take him to the mall for that picture. I am hoping since I am not really a mall person that even later in life Christopher won't know Santa is at the mall. There are so many other opportunities to get pictures with Santa! Downtown Acworth does lots of stuff so I think we are headed down there this weekend for Breakfast with Santa and maybe even Father Christmas! (Difference??) That seems WAY better than standing in line at a mall. 

Because Christopher does not just sit still anymore, I have to put him in his jumper to make his dinner.  If I don't then that tree and those ornaments are coming down!

About to go grocery shopping! Is it me or do his eyes (and double chin) look monstrous in this picture?

We were supposed to go to Babies R Us and get some presents, pick up Mellow Mushroom and head home for dinner. The boys wanted Ted's though! Uncle Anthony wanted to hold Christopher after he ate. There was a little girl at the table next to us- He is so aware of other little kids and likes to watch them, obviously from watching everyone at daycare.  At least now that he is on the move he can interact a little more while he is there!  

Laying in bed Sunday morning watching Dominick the Italian Christmas Donkey. He loves it.  We pulled up You-tube on the TV and watched this video and danced around the living room before bed last night. Christopher had so much fun!

Christopher never takes his eyes off of Uncle Anthony when he is around. This was him following Anthony as Anthony went down the hallway. He is also becoming less scared of Rocco. He didn't shriek at all this weekend, but then again Anthony didn't stick him right in front of Rocco's face either.

This is from last week. Christopher loves when you take your hand and tap it over his mouth like an Indian!



And that is all from here! Next time I promise to be more witty. My kids wore me OUT today. :)
