Twas the Night Before Christmas
Last year my mom got Loch a bear that told the story Twas the Night Before Christmas...he didn't think much of it! But this year, as we were unpacking our decorations, we came across the bear and turned it on in front of Loch. He was mesmerized!
We've had a very busy month of November. The beginning of the month was warm and all of the leaves were on the ground. Loch and I took some time and had a picnic at the park. It was a special treat of MacDonald's french fires and hamburgers...yum!
November also brought Thanksgiving and we took our annual trip to North Carolina to see the Harris clan. Tammie and I planned out a big photo event for the kids that was painful...well for me anyways. The kids had matching outfits and looked so cute...but Loch was the ultimate factor in the outcome of the photos! It's pretty hard for an 18month old to “pose” for pictures! Jake and Raegan looked adorable and we got a few shots that will work.We had a good game of Scrabble, it was nice to relax and spend time with one another.
I also took Loch to get his pictures done once again so that I had something to give at Christmas. I'm pretty happy with these ones, he loved the train and had a hard time keeping his hands off of it!

Loch's daycare had a Halloween Parade on the 30th and all of the kids marched around in their costumes. It was quite an undertaking considering how young the children are. I didn't have a good angle for this video, but it gives you an idea of how Loch just "goes through the motions" and does pretty well with such a large crowd! And the teachers weren't so bad themselves...that's why I don't work in a daycare...what a nightmare!
