long overdue update

well, i know i've gotten behind in some of my routine tasks but why its been a long time since i've updated this blog. the good news is not much has changed unless you count Dillan's amazing day to day development. Luke and I are still loving parenthood and often more tired then we are sane.

We had a joyous Thanksgiving visiting Grandma Spence in Arizona. Dillan loved all of the attention from Ruth, Stan and Dorothy. Turns out he's not that fond of mashed potatoes.

Dillan is getting so excited for his first Christmas, especially when we go to the store and he gets to see all of the shiny decorations. Still working on walking, but he is incredibly fast on all 4. He babbles up a storm, including saying mama, dada, hi, bye and ba-ba indiscriminately.

His powers of mimickery are truly amazing. I learned how talented he is when we spent a few minutes next to an older kid throwing a fit and Dillan commenced to copying the kid's screams inflection for inflection.

Thinking of all of you this holiday season and praying for God's grace and glory to abound in your family.
