Christmas 2013

Wow, this has been a fun couple of days.  Grandma Colleen and Papa Bud got here Monday evening.  Then, we had Tim and Annie, Mike and Kathleen, Tio and JQ, and Morgan over for Christmas Eve.  Lots of good food and you boys got spoiled with toys.  Then, today, we got up and had a fun breakfast and opened more presents!

Christmas is so much better through your and your brother's eyes!!!!  Thank you!

Drawer Baby

Lately, you've taken to throwing all of the plasticware out of the bottom drawer and sitting/standing in it.  It is pretty darn cute even if we do have to pick the stuff up afterwards!

Mr. Personality

Over the last couple of weeks Tio and I both have commented multiple times on your developing personality!  You smile, you communicate what you want by grunting and pointing and using your eyes, and you are so stinkin' close to walking!  You will take one or two unassisted steps and can stand on your own.  You seem to have responsive communication going for you too.  I asked you where your blankie was the other day and you went and got it!!!!  And, just as I typed this you climbed on top of the table ;)

Aunt "Caffeine's" Birthday

Your brother and I made a birthday cake for Aunt "Caffeine" today.  He got to decorate it by putting little bees on it.  You didn't get to do any of that yet but you had fun and I think you will be a little cook like your brother when you get just a little bit bigger. 

After we had dinner with Aunt K and Uncle Mike, they helped Dylan decorate our Christmas tree.

It Snowed

Yesterday it snowed so today we went out to play in what was left.  Your brother was thrilled; you, on the other hand, were not impressed ;)

Barbeque with Laurie Gordon

Tio, you, your brother, and I all braved the snow and ice to meet Laurie Gordon at a local hotel to have dinner and swim in the pool.  By donating to a local shelter or something like that, Laurie got the upgraded room with a big tub.  After we ate, you and Dylan had a grand ole' time playing in the tub.
