Merry and Bright



We couldn't be more thankful for what Santa has brought us this Christmas; two little boys, happy and healthy. We are looking forward to watching the boys tear into and eat wrapping paper without a care for what is inside. For us though, it's not about the gifts inside, it's about the gift of joy and happiness that our family will share this holiday.

We wish all of our family and friends near and far a very Merry Christmas and the happiest New Year.

P.S. Look for one of my New Year's Goals... to post more on our blog!

So I remember several months ago wishing the boys would do more than just lay around. Then they started rolling and I thought to myself "mobile babies aren't as bad as everyone says". Well now we are crawling, climbing, and walking with support, and I think to myself sometimes out loud "please just lay around again". Bryce and Owen are into everything, mostly things the are not supposed to be in. Owen has managed to figure out how to climb stairs and Bryce has figured out how to move the baby gate so he can go wherever he wants. They have new nicknames "Owen= Dora" "Bryce= Curious George".

We are very excited for Christmas as the boys got to have breakfast with Santa this past Saturday. Well everyone is excited minus Bryce. This is the first time we have witnessed Bryce being scared of someone. Well my second time witnessing this as the boys developed a case of "croup" and I had to take them to get shots all by myself. (I told Jamie she owes me big time) Bryce was not happy with the nurse that day.

We are also excited for the house which is moving along nicely. They started electric this past week so we are hoping they beat their expected March deadline.
Listen closely for Owen's first sentence!
