Getting ready for the holidays has kept me busy! So busy that I have not been able to post much in the last month. But just to catch up on what has been going on around the Lyons' household...here we go.

Harrison has been going to speech for the last month and is really improving on his communication and his word enunciation. And Robert and I are extremely impressed with Harrison's observation skills. This kid doesn't miss a beat and will point out things to us that we would never guess he was paying attention to. He is starting to sing the alphabet and count with numbers. And I also have noticed an artistic side to him as he tries to paint over the canvases that I have already painted. I guess he thinks he is already a better artist. He has had several playdates with his best buddies, Noah, Ethan and Brayden and the boys have a blast running around and beating each other up. Seriously, they are quite a wrecking crew. He also has more energy than ever and continues on his quest to turn me into a raging alcoholic. But most of all, Harrison is still in love with his little sister and I am continually amazed by his sweet demeanor and attentiveness to her. He is such a wonderful big brother!

And as for Miss Brooks, she is about the sweetest thing ever. I really think that with all the commotion that goes on around the house, she has decided to sit back and watch the show. Yes, I know one day she will decide to get involved in this crazy drama but right now she seems perfectly content to hang out (as long as someone is holding her) and eat. She also is getting cuter every day which I assume is from all the beauty rest that she is getting. She sleeps anywhere from 10 to twelve hours a night with a good 8-9 hour stretch before needing to eat. Just a tad different than Harrison's infant stage. She also is really starting to hold her head up and is always alert when she is awake, just taking everything in. I can't wait to hear what she has to say once she starts talking.

Here are some more photos of these 2 little munchkins!
