Okay...we are finally back at Panera and able to use the internet. What a busy month December was. Mark worked many extra hours for FedEx due to Santa's sudden illness that prevented him from being able to make all the last minute rounds for Christmas day. I was busy nursing, wrapping presents, nursing, baking Christmas goodies, nursing, running errands, nursing, etc. Needless to say beng a new mommy makes it tricky to get as many things done as I used to. However, our time together with family was so wonderful and Titus decided to bless us all with some adorable big smiles for Christmas. He is doing very well and is becoming more and more alert everyday. We have not been able to catch a smile on camera yet, but when we do we will be sure to post it for family and friends to see. He is is growing quickly, but Mark and I do laugh at him when we dress him due to his very long arms and legs. His arms and legs have outgrown most of his 3 month clothing, but his little torso is just now filling out the newborn size. He is about 24" long now and around 12 lbs. He has been sleeping through the night(8-10hrs.) for 1 week and I am enjoying the extra sleep. Well that is enough of an update on the baby for now. Mark is almost finished with his semester and I am enjoying my time at home with Titus. I have to let eveone know that my sister Bonnie got engaged on January 9th. What an exciting time these next few months will be. (the 1st pic is Titus at one month and the 2nd is just a fun shot when he was still little enough to be a stocking stuffer)

He's as handsome as ever! And SO cute in that stocking.
he is so cute!!! it is so neat to watch them grow!!!
He really has changed so much already. What a cutie!
What a sweetheart! Titus, you are just precious! Grandma Mary said she is looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks! I told her to give you a big hug from Auntie Erin.
He is adorable, Anne! It's no wonder he's long and thin...=)I can't wait to hold our little one!
Congrats to Bonnie! Jason is it? Good strong name! :)
Titus is so cute! I wish we were close. He would get lots of hugs and kisses from Jo and Ella! Way to stay big Titus. At their 2 mo. appointments Jo was 25 1/4" and 14.9 lbs. Ella was 25" and 14 lbs! Butterballs must run in the family!
Hi Mark and Annie!
It was fun for us to find your blog. We are so out of the loop with being away from Virginia for so long.
I can't wait until we get back and see Titus! And you guys of course too although I'm sure you've figured out that you're secondary now -- just kidding.
Oh boy... I had a big smile on my face when I was reading your accomplishments of the day that were interspersed with feedings. I so remember that! At four months, Kayla went to four feedings, and I felt like I had so much more time in my day. I am glad to hear you are getting more rest now because those first weeks are exhausting.
Congratulations on your little treasure -- I'm sure you've been told this so many times, but enjoy every minute of it because they grow up so quickly. Kayla is almost 17 months, but it seems like just yesterday that she was an infant. Those are good memories.
