Winter is here!!

Daddy always tells me to get off his TV

Having a ball in Corbins Ball pit, Dillon might have one under the tree this year too! ;)

The next PGA golfer!

Well winter has set in and its begining to look alot like Christmas at the Hughes household! The weather is even helping it look that way. I can tell you, I for one was NOT ready for all of this snow and ice already! I thought all that came in January (normally on my birthday). The only thing Im excited about the snow this year is getting Dillon outside to play in it. Which hasn't happened yet, but Im sure by the looks of the forcasts coming up we will be posting snow pics soon! Darren put our lights up on the house and we have our tree and decorations up inside. It looks beautiful! Dillon loves all the lights and believe it or not, could care less about the tree! We were really worried, but its been really nice!

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We sure did! We had three wonderful Dinners / brunch! And most of all we got to spend some time with the people we are thankful for the most, our Family! Dillon had a great time, he got to try some green beans and mashed potatoes and quite possibly maybe even a bite of some pumpkin roll and sugar cream pie! He loved it all! He loves the new foods he is getting!

Along with eating pretty much everything now, Dillon has learned several new things in the last few weeks. He waves when we go bye bye or when we tell him to say Hi. Its more of a wave with his whole arm, but its absolutly adorable! He also claps when we clap and when he thinks things are funny, or just randomly too. And the thing we love that he does the most right now is when he is standing and holding on to something we will tell him to shake his booty, and he bounces his little booty up and down! haha its soo cute! Sometimes he even sticks out his little hip and does it too. Hes such a stinker and we can definitely see his little personality shinning through! He has gotten a couple more teeth in. He has three on the bottom and almost four on the top. He looks like such a big boy with his teeth shinning in that beautiful smile he has! He is also jabbering a lot now. I think its fun to try and make something out of what comes out of his mouth. He definitely knows how to say momma (mostly when he wants something) , dadda (when momma doesn't answer) and babba. And I swear he says Bella, not quite sure, but I think he says her name too. He is getting so big, and is so much fun! We are so excited with all of our family events coming up and can't wait to show off our cute little munchkin! We have a total of 9 Christmas events this year, and have already had three! We have been and are soon to be very very busy, but we love seeing everyone and spending time with family! (and eating good good food too) :)

Another big Celebration happening in the Hughes household is, Darren found a job! He went out to Saint Louis to interview with a company named Buckeye International this past monday and tuesday and they offered him the job on the spot! This is certainly an answer to prayer and we are very grateful! We are now just hoping and praying this is the right decision and the right path God has for Darren! Although the main headquarters are in Saint Louis, Darrens territory will be in part of Indiana and part of Ohio. January looks for alot of traveling for him, but once trained he will be home everynight but maybe 3 or 4 a month. I will have him post more info about the job soon, as he knows much much more than me and im sure I would mess something up! Just had to throw that exciting update in this post!

Hope everyone is staying healthy and warm! Happy Holidays to you all and we will see most of you soon! For those of you we wont see, we wish you a very Merry Christmas! Keep checking our blog! We will be sure to post pictures soon!
