Happy New Year everyone! 2016 is off to a good start for us, after a fun and festive holiday season. We were in Charlotte with Jim's family for Thanksgiving (where Sylvan got his first long-distance train ride - so much better than driving!), and Texas with Courtney's family for Christmas. Sylvan had a blast with all of his cousins - loves being around the big kids (and other littles, too). Sylvan is SO BUSY these days - walking, babbling, and very into organizing and sorting things. Thankfully we've moved beyond putting everything in the mouth, but now everything goes into a container - or out of one - or into one - or out of one... you get the picture. He just turned 15 months, so we are excited to see what his current weight and height are later this week. He is a very solid kid with a cute little belly, so we expect that he's heavier and likely taller than last time, too.
