December 2014

This December has been a month of firsts for this little Dennis family. Jefferson was welcomed with smiles. cuddles, and lots of love by family and friends. He is a very scheduled baby which has made it easy to take him out and about on walks and visits. We have settled into a day to day routine: morning songs, tummy time, naps, our daily walk, music time, bath time, reading time, and bed time. On Christmas eve he slept 6 hours for the first time and on Dec. 27 he was so upset in tummy time he pushed himself over (at 6 weeks). He seems very attentive to all the faces around him and loves to coo and "talk" with whoever holds him. Brad speaks to Jefferson in Spanish as much as possible and Mary spends a few hours a day studying Spanish.  We are so grateful for all of the continual support and love given to our little family. So many people have been so generous. This new year we have the goal to express gratitude every chance we can get. Cheers to 2015.
