Sorry I haven't updated the blog in a bit. It has been really crazy busy in the Burmester household since we got back from Atlanta for Thanksgiving. As soon as we got back, Matt started studying like crazy for two tests he had that week. As a result Alan and I spent several nights together since Matt didn't get home until midnight some nights and 9:00pm other nights. I know Alan missed his Daddy horribly and because of this, he was a complete wreck every night. The nights Matt came home around midnight, Alan would cry for at least two hours trying to go to sleep. This didn't make me a very happy woman at all.
Here are some of the pics from Thanksgiving! Matt and Jeff were in charge of carving the turkey. Leslie and I figured if we cooked it they could carve it! :) Matt kinda scares me with that knife though.
I took care of the gravy and Leslie did the stuffing while the guys were carving. Although while the stuffing was fluffing Leslie took pics. I am so glad that she got some because we really didn't.
Here is the table with Alan as our decorations. He LOVED that bouncy seat. It is a shame that we didn't find this out until he is just about to grow out of it. But we did make a note of it for baby #2.
Jeff and Leslie with Alan. I have to say it was such a blessing for Matt and I when Jeff and Leslie babysat Alan for us so we could go on a date. It was very strange being out and about without him but it was nice too. We were able to get some Christmas presents for him and the twins and have dinner. I think this was the first time I ate dinner with both hands instead of having a baby in one arm and trying to eat with the other. Thank you SOOOOO MUCH Jeff and Leslie!!!
We had our Christmas dinner at church on December 5th. It was a really great time fellowshipping with the other families from church. Pastor gave us a really cool puzzle gift. If you are in the Charleston area any time soon I will show it to you. It took us a few minutes to get it figured out.
