I'm gonna get it!  I'm gonna get it!

Christmas Decorations!

I know I've been doing a lot of picture overloads lately but that's been my life!  I love taking pictures of my family! We are all decorated for Christmas!  We are still going to add a few more lights outside and another small tree for the boys...but that will come later.  Here's what we have so far!!  I love this time of year! :) And you can go check out our November photo album to see even more pictures if this isn't enough for you ...

We got a CHRISTMAS TREE!

Landon loves Christmas trees!! I'm so excited that he is finally really starting to get excited about Christmas. I really want to start stressing the real reason for the season and I can't wait to start all kinds of family traditions with him and Liam.  One of which...going to pick out a Christmas tree!

 

The boys got all dressed up to go!

... more pictures to come of our Christmas decorations!! :)

A few more Thanksgiving pictures ... :)

New Babies!

We will be bringing home these two lovely ladies soon!!  I'm so excited!!  Life isn't the same without a dog around ...



Our Thanksgiving in iPhone pictures.

I'll post more pictures later from my real camera but thought I'd share some of the ones I took with my phone from the day.  We went to Granny's for Thanksgiving lunch and then to Cyndi Yaya's for dinner.  We had a nice day and we thank God for all of our many blessings :)

Liam

Liam had his checkup at the doctor yesterday!  He weighed 14lbs 10 oz and was 24 inches long.

Here he was at the doctor, Daddy said he had fun playing on the table:

The doctor said we needed to let him cry at night.  That it's become a habit for him now.  She said he would be fine not to eat from around 10pm-5am. So last night I fed him at 8pm and didn't feed him again until 4am.  He didn't sleep that whole time - we did have to listen to him cry BUT it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be - He didn't wake Landon up and he did eventually go back to sleep.  I feel like we have made some kind of progress already. Other than that she said he was very healthy and looked great! 

Here's a video I took the other night of him rolling over - He's been doing it right much lately - even in the bathtub a few times - HA! - but it's been hard to catch him on camera.  I love Landon's comments ...

BFFs

Two of my best friends came to the house the other weekend to visit and they brought their two kids.  It's crazy to think that we have six kids between us between the ages of 10 and 4 months.  They had a lot of fun playing though and I look forward to watching them grow up together.

Our Saturday morning.

Mason's 1st Birthday.

Mason turned ONE on Friday and we went to his party today. Landon had a lot of fun...his exact words were, "I love Mason's party!".
