December

Well, another month has passed without a blog post. Not that there wasn't a lot to write about, but like most people in November and December, we've been busy. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving in Oklahoma City. So thankful that Alexander was cleared for soft solids and we could go see all the family. It was great to meet Marcus' future in-laws and see the aunts, uncles and cousins dote over Alexander. He hammed it up over lunch while stuffing himself with mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes. That boy can eat.

GG and all the great-grandkids

The end of the semester has also been busy for Jason and Stephani. Stephani finished her final on December 13th. The next day, Alexander saw the surgeon and was cleared to eat all foods including crunchy things again. The TTU students went on break officially on December 15th. Alexander has been having fun at school with Christmas parties. He's loving dancing and running around. He and Sampson are better friends all the time. He's a little more talkative and definitely more active. He also seems to love making people laugh.

We are excited for Santa to come and get to spend the holiday with both sides of the family. Alexander will finally get to meet his 1st cousins! Should be fun to see all the kids playing together. Not sure what Alexander asked for when he saw Santa at school this year, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was food related. His teacher had to give him a graham cracker so they could get the picture without him crying or running away.

Merry Christmas!!! And Happy New Year from the Biggs to your family!
