Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

In an attempt to save a tree we have decided to do a virtual Christmas card this year. It feels like the year only just began but here we are at the end of it with one more member of our family and an almost THREE year old.

Brandon is still working at Dealer Socket right here in San Clemente, CA but he recently switched to a different department. He is really excited about this move as it will give him a chance to learn some new skills and shake things up a bit without having to completely start over somewhere else.

Emilee loves being a mother and the boys are healthy, happy, and learning. She loves talking to Seth and challenging him in all areas and trying to get John to say "ma-ma" (no success yet).






Seth is talking up a storm these days. His greatest desire right now is to have his own Great White Shark but if he can't have that he would like an alligator. He loves the zoo and his school and is always asking where his friends are. Seth is a goofy kid and always has us laughing. He adores his little brother. Seth loves learning and knows all his letters and their sounds. Currently we are focusing on recognizing his name, rhyming and dressing himself.









Our newest little guy, Johno, is a mystery package at every turn. We love him to bits but he sure does give us a run for our money. He is a mixture of sensitivity, curiosity, and stubbornness but also gives you that feeling like he is an old soul. He needs lots of comfort and reassurance in new social situations but he will explore his own surroundings without fear. He is 6 months old and already pulling himself up and trying to cruise around the furniture. He takes a good 5-10 minutes to recover after falling but will laugh and smile if you look at him or cuddle him. He loves his big brother and really wants to be able to play with him. John is still very sensitive to dairy and sucks his thumb just like Seth.









So there you have it. We hope you all have a wonderful holiday and here is to fun filled 2016.
