Catch up for November and December

I've been told that I need to make some new entries. Time has just gotten away from me. I really wanted to start this blog for Tobin's benefit. I would love to have his precious life documented. I was reading another friend's blog the other day and she mentioned that she writes a letter to her daughter for every birthday her daughter has. In the letter she reminds her daughter of all of the milestones of that year. I thought that was a great idea and it convicted me that I need to be more disciplined at writing those milestones down. So, this entry is for Tobin's benefit. I have a lot of catching up to so here it goes.....

November....
November was a full month for us but such a fun month. Not only did we have Tobin and Daddy's birthday but we traveled to Colorado for Thanksgiving. Grandma and Grandpa met us in St. Louis and we all flew to Fort Collins, Colorado to have Thanksgiving with my brother and his family. We stayed for almost a week and what a great week it was. What a blessing it was for Tobin to meet all of his boy cousins. We went to Estes Park, went on lots of walks, daddy got to go to the New Belgium Brewery and we had lots of yummy, Kirsten cooking.

Grandma bought all of the boys matching PJs

So good to be all together


December....

In December we got on another plane and this time headed South for Atlanta. You see on December 3rd we had another niece enter the world so all of the Phillips clan headed to the ATL to celebrate Christmas and see little Melrose. Tobin had a great time with his girl cousins and we had some great baby, snuggle time. We stayed in Atlanta for a week and what a great week it was.

Yeah...more posts on your blog! You will be glad you took the time to journal special occassions in your lives. Wish I had done that with my little ones. Great pictures of fun times.
