O' Christmas Tree, O' Christmas Tree

Love his "silly face"

The Christmas tree experience was not quite how momma planned it. All H wanted was another candy cane (too many candy canes the previous 2 days) and my baby, T, who is never cranky... was super cranky. He just wanted to eat and get his diaper changed, not search for a Christmas tree. We tried for a few minutes and then T and I retreated to the car to eat, while H and Daddy picked a tree without us. T proceeded to smile at me the whole ride home... stinker ;).
The decorating was fun though. We put the tree up and placed lights during H's nap. He was SO excited when he woke up. As far as decorating goes, he only wanted to put ornaments on if it meant climbing the ladder and putting them up high. I can't blame him. Ladders are pretty fun.

I LOVE Christmas time! Can't get enough of all the decorations and general holiday cheer. This is our first Christmas in our new home and I was so delighted to discover our "little town" has its own Christmas tree lighting. Our whole family came back over. We had thanksgiving leftovers, filled thermos's with hot chocolate and peppermint schnapps, and walked downtown to the lighting and holiday festivies. Henry got to sit in a fire engine, have hot chocolate and candy canes, and visit with Santa. He asked for a big boy bike for Christmas. Lucky for him thats what he's getting =). I love that my son has the same excitement for holidays that I do.

What a cute pair!

Nana snuggles are the best

I am so thankful for my family. I have been truely blessed with a fabulous family. They are a little (ok... a lot) crazy and dysfunctional, but thats what makes them family =).

H & T

My Boys! Need I say more. Henry is just about the funniest little boy I know. Thayer is so happy all the time. These boys are such a joy. Now that we are out of the first 2 months with our newest family member, everyone is settling in nicely. What a great family!

Another Giant...

Our newest little man could slow down at any moment, but as of right now he's trying to keep up with big brother. We had his 2 mo appt. today.

Stats:13lbs 11oz, 24.5in

Both at the top of the charts and almost exactly what brother was at the same age (14lbs, 25in).

Still quite baffled as to where these large boys came from. I want them to stay my little men forever.

Thayer is 2 months

My littlest man is 2 months old today. It's going by so fast, but at the same time, it feels like he has always been a part of our family. He is the sweetest baby around. Very calm, quiet, and most recently happy. His personality is realy starting to shine. I have been enjoying long smile/coo sessions every morning. I can't get enough of those smiles. As cheesy as it sounds, they warm my heart. He still sleeps a lot, but when he is awake he is a happy boy.

He is so handsome and has the fluffiest patch of hair on his head. He is proving to be quite the big boy like brother. I'm interested to see just how big at his appt. this week.

Love you, Thayer
