A Stress Free Black Friday

It's not very often that we all get to be together (us with Seth's brothers and their wives). We enjoyed the day Friday just hanging out together...it was relaxing and stress free! The girls did do a little bit of Walmart shopping in the later afternoon on Friday, but by the time we got to the store...things were pretty much back to normal.

Everyone enjoyed some snuggle time with baby Isaac





Hannah loved hanging out with her cousin Eli

It was also Aunt Jill and Uncle Adams first time to meet Isaac! Of course...it didn't take Uncle Adam long at all to get him smiling!

Thanksgiving with Nana, Papa, and Aunt Sue

We spent the day on Thursday with Nana, Papa, and Aunt Sue. It was a great day of delicious food and relaxing with family.



It was fun to Nana, Aunt Sue, and Papa to meet Isaac for the first time

Nana enjoyed lots of cuddle time with him
Happy girl!

Thank you Nana, Papa, and Aunt Sue for the wonderful feast and your hospitality!

Isaac @ 10 weeks


Happy Birthday, Milan!

We had fun celebrating Milans 3rd birthday with her! She asked for an elephant cake and of course, her mom did a great job!
two very excited friends!
Hannah gave Milan her favorite one of her favorite cd's: Seed Family Worship: Seeds of Faith, and homemade playdough with cookie cutters. The girls enjoyed playing playdough for a while...it was fun to watch them. :)
Hannah played doctor and listened to everyones hearts. She went around again and had everyone listen to her heart too...Ms. Narcisa made a great doctor!

Isaac @ 2 months

My little guy is two months old. He now has a smile that will light up the room. This month we have enjoyed listening to him learn to coo at us. He still isn't sleeping through the night yet, but is doing a 4-5 hour stretch at the beginning of the night. Mommy especially is eagerly awaiting a full nights sleep! We sure are enjoying our little blessing from above!

Little fan club

Remember how excited Amelia, Addison and Olivia were about the baby in my belly? Well they are thrilled that he is here and are always excited to see Isaac on Sunday at church. They have fun rocking him in his car seat and adoring him. We enjoyed a play date at their house last week...they loved getting to hold him.
He's crying here...but I'm pretty sure he'll love the attention from these pretty girls one day :)

Isaac @9 weeks


Isaac @ 8 weeks

love this boy!

Ethan is ONE!!

It's been a while since we've been able to make the trip to visit family. It was so much fun to stay with Beth, Adam, and Ethan. Hannah slept in a sleeping bag for the first time and did great.

Friday, we enjoyed the day with Beth and my mom. We went to Chuck E. Cheese (all the pics are on my sisters camera :)). Hannah thought it was great that Chuck E. Cheese gave her a hug, blew her kisses, and caught the kisses she blew.

Saturday was Ethans first birthday party. We were so excited to be there to share in the fun! The theme was baby animals, so Isaac wore his monkey outfit (thanks Eli! :)).
Can't believe it's already been a whole year!
what a big boy! We got to watch him take a few steps while we were there for the weekend...this guy is going to be walking anyday!
Ileene was excited to meet and hold Isaac. Ethan wasn't too sure about sharing his grandma.
He was happier when he got to check him out...

Ethan put that cupcake away. It was SO much fun to watch him eat it. He picked up the whole thing...and in it went! It took him just a minute or two to polish it off...yum!

Hannah is showing off her monkey cupcake (minus the ears). Beth and I had fun making monkey and lion cupcakes the night before. They turned out so cute (again more pics on my sisters camera).
and of course...a birthday party isn't complete without presents!
Hannah gave him a monkey book because she loves the story and it fit the theme of the day perfectly!
she had fun naming the letters in Ethans name
Ethan is having a ball with his new walking toy. On to year number two!!

Daddy's Little Helper



Hannah loved helping Daddy with the leaves this year. She had fun raking and scooping up the leaves to put in the bag. It's a joy to watch her with her Daddy...she wants to be just like him!
