Will and Holly

I have a confession to make to all of you who don't know already. Will has a babydoll. Yes - a little boy with a babydoll. But let me tell you - I couldn't "not" buy it. We were out one day about 6 months ago and I told him if he behaved he could pick something out on a small gift table near the front of the store. He picked Holly the doll. To this day, and much to his father's dismay, Holly is his 2nd most prized possession (behind Bunny of course). Here's a picture of Will & Holly this morning. Note - This was NOT posed! I went in the den and found him just like this! And he was saying, "Good job Holly! Hold on!"

Will & the Lawnmowers

Went out to the garage just now and found Will: in the driver's seat with BOTH of his lawnmowers on board. He loves them.

A New Annual Tradition

Last Saturday the three of us went to find and cut down our Christmas tree. It was our first time at a tree farm and we had a great time, especially Will! We ended up settling on a Leyland Cypress. We haven't had one of those before and I really love it.

There was lots of running involved.

And he pauses for a moment...

...Only to turn around and run back.

We finally got him to stand still long enough for a picture.

Will giving us the "thumbs up" about our tree choice.

This tree was just too big for our house!

This is how Will "smiles" these days.

Will was a big helper to Daddy.

A Living Christmas Story

Tonight Will & I participated in a Living Christmas Story in the role of Villagers. Here are a couple of pictures of Will in costume. No pictures of me because he pulled off my head wrap so I just looked like a lady in a mumu.

Other cast members: "Shalom! Have you heard the King has been born right here in this very city? Have you changed your money? Are you here for the census? Is there room at the Inn?"

Will: "I want more goldfish. I want to see baby Jesus. I want to pet the camel.
