Life with Drew has been wonderful so far. I have already forgotton way too much, I wish I could preserve every moment.
We were talking how much more enjoyable the Christmas season has been so far because of his presence. He brings an excitement and anticipation that has been missing for some years now.
Meeting Santa this past weekend was great fun for all three of us - a tradition we will uphold each year. Other traditions will include watching "It's a Wonderful Life" and baking cookies, attending church on Christmas Eve and reading "Twas the Night Before Christmas". So much fun!
Drew is up to 11.2 pounds and becoming more vocal each day. He is good at finding his fist and soothing himself while gnawing away on his little fingers - if he doesn't startle himself or gnaw to hard.

Merry Christmas Andrew, Alexis, and Drew! It's amazing seeing how much he's grown! I admit I forgot about your blog and was kindof reverting to pre-blog days thinking I'd be hearing from you in email or something, but this is definitely the modern way to do it... this is a nice blog, I love your pictures and videos. I see you in Drew so much Alexis. But maybe I'm biased! Merry Christmas!
Happy New Year McDowell family! Many blessings on your 2009!
I just read your 7-week-old entry where you're mentioning how Andrew is starting to talk back to you both when you talk to him...didn't think that would sound funny before I wrote it...I was just thinking you are seriously going to have a little baby genius on your hands I think!
Oh my goodness! That little one is way too cute Andrew and Alexis! You guys look incredibly happy and I think Drew is the luckiest little boy in the world to have you two as parents. :) I love the blog page and the ability to see Drew growing up (and so quickly might I add!). Keep up the great communication!
