Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree

First of many...we took some pictures with Cillian around the Christmas tree. He is getting so great at lifting his head when he's on his stomach, but doesn't quite know when to turn to the camera. :)

Cutest present under the Christmas tree!

It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas

The Oldenburg Christmas Market opened this week. I love Germany at Christmas time because there is at least one Christmas Market in every town and city. Unfortunately, we were unable to stay very long on opening night because Cillian was crying too much. I did manage to a get a few pictures!

We can't wait to go back again! 

Cillian is 16 weeks!

Yesterday marked 16 weeks with our sweet and not so little Cillian. He had his third doctor visit last week and received another shot...I didn't cry this time but I was getting emotional. The doctor said he is such a cute and healthy baby. Obviously! Cillian currently weighs 14.5 pounds and over 2 feet long. I still cannot believe how big he is now. Logan and I are in awe of him everyday and praise God for such a beautiful blessing.

Falling asleep in Daddy's arms. 

16 weeks of preciousness!

Thanksgiving means Christmas is coming!

Yesterday we had plans to attend a Thanksgiving dinner with some American friends in Oldenburg. Unfortunately, I was sick with a cold and was unable to go. Cillian and I stayed home and admired the Christmas tree we put up. I love decorating for Christmas! 

Our cute boy whom we are so thankful for! Love this little guy so much!

15 weeks with Cillian!

Cillian has been with us for 15 weeks now and he is continually growing and changing. He loves entertaining himself with the noises he makes...it also keeps Logan and I pretty entertained too. He has recently noticed his feet and become quite fascinated with raising them close to his head. Cillian is getting better with tummy time and feeling different textures of his toys; which mostly end up in his mouth. 

My Mom sent Cillian travel themed gifts for his room...this adorable sign is one of them. 

She included various travel decor items...Ship, bicycle, motorcycle, truck, etc...

It is all SO cute!

Here is a close up of the bicycle, truck, and Paddington Bear she sent. 

The shirt reads "Little Man Big Trouble" So very true. Haha

My Dad sent Cillian the cutest Fall clothes! This is a Moose hoodie and he loves it! Logan also loves it and wishes he could find one in his size.

Cillian always looks super stylish thanks to my Daddy!

Our Lederhosen Boy

One of the coolest things about living in Germany is the traditional attire: Lederhosen for men and Dirndl dresses for women. Our sweet friends Anne and Mo got Cillian his first Lederhosen-like pants. We love them and can't wait to take him with us to Oktoberfest someday...someday when he is not feeding from my boobs.

This handsome boy is too much!

Goodbye Fall!

We took a walk by a small lake in town. Weather is starting to get much colder and darker here. Definitely missing summer right now. 

Cillian fell asleep as he does on most of our outdoor adventures .

Naturally, as soon as we get home he is wide awake.
