Christmas is almost here! My mom and Marthaa will be arriving within the next few days and there's still so much to do. In addition to Christmas shopping, grocery shopping, and house cleaning I'm also taking the GRE later this week and trying to get the rest of my college applications in!
Yesterday, James and I got the majority of our Christmas shopping done and today we're going to brave the post office to mail out our gifts. He does pretty well out and about. Yesterday while shopping people would ask how old he was, and were in shock to learn he's only 6 weeks old! He really is growing so fast and he's so much more alert. When shopping yesterday we had to buy socks size 12 -24 months! He's gonna be tall!
His sleep habits are also improving. Last night he slept from 11 to 4 straight through! That's the longest stretch we've had so far!
We were given the opportunity to play the Holy Family in our church's Christmas performance this past Sunday and Monday. James did well both nights but on Monday night he was probably about as perfect as a baby can be! Honestly- that's not just a proud mama saying that! I will post pictures of that when I get some.
Also, we went to a Christmas party our Adoption Agency hosted on Friday. We thought James would be the youngest guy there, but 2 more babies have been placed since James was born. So in the past 6 weeks, they've placed 3 babies! What miracles for all the families!
