Busy but Having Fun!

We're really enjoying the holiday season this year! Especially since we've had the best weather here in CO. Our weather has just been gorgeous with sunshine and warm temperatures. We've hardly gotten any moisture at all this whole year so things are definitely dry but it's nice to be able to do things outdoors in the fall/winter.
The last few weeks have been full of holiday fun. Last weekend we went to the zoo to have breakfast with Santa. It was so fun this year because Anderson was fascinated with Santa. Santa sang and was very interactive with the kids. I think it will be a yearly tradition for us! We also went to our town's winter festival and to the Denver Botanical Gardens Blossoms of Light. Anderson slept last year but really enjoyed the lights this year. It was funny and kind of sad looking at the poor ice sculptures and guessing what they were before they melted.
Anderson and I are enjoying my holiday break that started on Tuesday. He sure is keeping me busy! He's gotten really good at walking and loves those stairs. He is also down to one nap a day, which is why there hasn't been a post in some time. In the past few weeks Anderson's molars (2 on the top and 2 on the bottom) have been coming in. I think they're almost in! Yay!
We're headed to my Aunt Cathy's house in a few days to spend time with my family and then in January we will go to STL to spend time with James' family. Busy, busy, but I just love the holidays and getting to see our families.

Going up the stairs but taking a break at the landing.
Mommy and her sweet boy.

Look at that beard!
Soo exciting!!
Having fun at Madison's first birthday party.
Ready to go look at some lights.
