We are keeping busy here at the Corey-Knock house with holiday fun... We have been to a few parties. Caleb seems to like parties...there is always a lot to see and experience, like new people and crinkly wrapping paper. At our Sunday small group party, we had a "junk" swap (like a yankee swap but with used items that you just don't want anymore) and we actually got two pretty decent gifts - a teapot and a set of wrenches. At my Monday night ladies' Christmas party, he mostly just slept, missing out on a lot of great food! And today he came with me to my Early Intervention Christmas party...several other staff with their new babies were there as well, and he was the oldest of all the babies. Such a big man!
Last night, our friends Melanie and Josh came over, and we made gingerbread houses. Caleb was not all that impressed...hopefully, he will like this kind of thing more as he grows older (and grows in his appreciation of frosting and candy).
We also opened Caleb's gifts from Aunty and Catheine this past weekend, the most notable of which is a 5-foot tall stuffed giraffe! Pretty cool. Caleb and Dad both enjoyed playing with it.
We continue to work on sleeping - well, Jonathan and I work on it. Caleb just laughs at our attempts. I am buying a new sleep book to read on our Christmas trip while other people take turns holding him and hoping some good sleep will be Caleb's Christmas gift to us.
