Dear Owen,

You are three weeks old today! You were born at 37 weeks, so today is your due date! We’ve had such a great time getting to know you. You are a very sweet boy. You sleep a lot of the time, but your eyes have also been open more in the last few days, so it’s been fun to talk to you and hang out with you while you are awake!

Love you,
Mama

Dear Hayden and Owen,

For the 5th day of Christmas fun, we headed to the Christmas Celebration at church. Hayden, you played outside in the snow (which they had delivered) and rode the ponies. Owen, you were cast as baby Jesus in the nativity skit, so you were inside doing that. We all had a good time! For the 6th day, Hayden, you and I wrote a letter to Santa telling him what you (and Owen in your PS) want for Christmas. You two bring us so much joy — you make everything more fun!

Love you,
Mama

The Letter to Santa:

Dear Hayden,

We have been celebrating Christmas in a special way! You have been opening a drawer on your Christmas tree calendar each day, and there is a fun Christmas activity in each drawer.  The first night we watched a Christmas movie and ate popcorn, and on the second night we assembled a gingerbread house! You are having a blast with each activity and you make the holiday season so much fun! Before we know it, Owen will be old enough to get in on the fun with you!

Love you,
Mama
