Christmas Day

Benjamin discovering what was under the tree!

Playing with the forklift Mama and Daddy got him (the biggest hit of the day)

Nathaniel "opening" his presents

Benjamin opening his next gift; from Lala and Papa

Helping Daddy find the right piece for the next part of the train track


Playing with the train set from Lala and Papa. Daddy and Benjamin worked on setting it up for quite a long while!


Nathaniel playing with his doggy from Ashleigh..he loved giving his doggy kisses!

Nathaniel playing with his musical butterfly from Grandma Nina


A big fluffy beanbag chair from Grandma Nina! Say cheese!

Benjamin and Nathaniel enjoying the beanbag chair together! Such great brothers!

Nathaniel is no longer needing help sitting up. He is growing so fast!

Naptime finally arrived....the boys passed out....


...literally!

Benjamin figured that Nathaniel needed to talk on the phone

After dinner, Benjamin, Daddy and Grandma Nina decided to go look at Ho Ho Lights (what Benjamin likes to call them).

Nathaniel and I stayed home and watched "The Nutcracker" on pbs.

We also played on the floor....

....and decided we wanted to reach for our toes and roll on our side....

....luckily, that's as far as he made it. I don't think I'm ready for two kids on the move....I know the day will come though!

Thankfully, we ended the best Christmas (so far) with visions of sugarplums dancing in our heads!

Working backwards

Well, its been many, many weeks since we've updated the blog. Because of this, we are going to work backwards instead of forwards. The next few blogs will the most recent pictures of the boys and our adventures. We'll do our best to post at least once a week!
