Decorating for Christmas

Today we started decorating for Christmas, which is a big deal at Mama Ruth's house. We aren't finished yet, so I will post pictures later, but Patrick is really enjoying the lights and decorations. He watches the lights and squeals with delight. He is big enough to look around and know that something is going on, but not big enough to be in the middle of everything, which is really nice! He also has a new trick this week. He will now stick his tongue if you stick out your tongue. I laughed and laughed when he started doing that. I have the happiest baby ever. He wakes up happy and giggling, and he just doesn't stop. Sure, he has fussy moments when he is tired or has gas, but he really smiles a lot, and that makes me so happy as his mom. Patrick seems to really enjoy life. He plays with his feet now, but he won't roll over yet because he doesn't like his stomach anymore. He used to love tummy time, but anymore it just makes him spit up and then he gets fussy. We practice rolling over, but his isn't interested yet. I'm not worried; I know he will figure it out when he is ready. He falls over on his side when he grabs his toes, so rolling over can't be too far away.
