My Christmas Presents...

Here are two of my favorite Christmas presents...we are so blessed with two happy children (I said happy, not healthy...that's a whole other story).


Of course, you can't get them both smiling in one picture, so here's one of B smiling.

Some Christmas photos...

Possibly a future Santa...he sure enjoys his milk and cookies...



Friday night we went to Grami and Pa-pas for dinner and some pictures for their possible Christmas card. Here are some pictures we took...

Brody's 2 month appointment

We finally made it to Brody's 2 month appointment. It was suppose to be last Wednesday but Reece got the stomach flu on Sunday the 7th, I got it on Tuesday, Brock got it on Thursday, and Brody got it on Saturday....we were a mess around here. Anyways, doc says he's a healthy little boy. He is 22 and 1/4 inches which is 25% so he has short little legs - the fact that he is still wearing newborn pants should have been my first clue. He is 11 lbs 14 ounces which is 50% and his head is 16.5 inches which is the 90th %...no surprise there. We go back in February...hopefully by then he will be sleeping through the night...ugh.

Same Santa...different kids...here's last year's photo with Santa.



Santa really needs to learn how to hold these kids...look at Brody's poor pants. It was difficult to get both kids looking at the camera. The one where Brody is looking, Reece is pouting. Oh well...maybe next year.


Reece wearing my high heels...she is such a shoe girl which is kind of scary...and she does really well in my heels which is even scarier.

Reece loves Harley right now. They play all day long which is nice for me. While Harley was eating dinner the other night she covered him up with her favorite blankie.

New Tricks

My happy guy...I know all these pictures probably look the same to you but every time he smiles I just think it's the greatest!

Brody's new trick - blowing bubbles...I don't know why but every evening he gets kind of ticked and puckers his lips and all these bubbles start coming out. Reecey sure likes it and yells "bubbles" and points.

Reecey's new trick...um...I'll let you take a guess at what she is doing...Brock thought I was joking but tonight he caught her walking around the house like this...it's a little lower than how I do it but she gets the idea.

A smiley face...


A serious face...


Reece got to have her first bowl of cereal all on her own...she was so proud.

Well, I thought "swaddle man" was getting rid of the swaddle because he seems to be fighting it lately, but this is the only time he has fallen asleep not swaddled. This was 2 nights ago so I tried to put him down not swaddled and he cried for a 1/2 hour and then was up an hour later. I swaddled him and then he slept until 3:30am (going 8 hours without a feeding)...YEA!


Sunday, I put Reece in her snow suit and winter coat and we went out to check out the snow. She screamed with joy at first until she realized it was cold. Then she didn't want to touch it. She says "snow" but then points to her nose....gets confused since I guess the words sound similar to her. It was funny to see her all bundled up...she fell and couldn't get up and it reminded me of the kid from the movie "A Christmas Story"...I was laughing and she was crying saying "mommy, mommy"...

Brody likes the swing...
