Happy December!

We're still here! Just having some trouble with our internet.


Thanksgiving was fantastic. We got to meet sweet little McKenna (our niece!) for the very first time.


My parents are slowly healing.


The boys are doing well.

Landon has two teeth. He's pulling himself up to standing now. I'm pretty sure if I measured it out, he would have crawled at least 3 miles each day. He's constantly on the move. Even in the bathtub, he does laps -- and laughs the whole time. It's all pretty entertaining. He's still working on sleeping through the night and has made it all the way from 7pm to 5am about 4 times now. And did I mention that he's the sweetest thing ever? Because he IS.




Tanner is talking up a storm these days. He's very excited about all of the Christmas decorations up everywhere. Each morning he looks down from the top of the stairs and yells "My Christmas, Mommy! My Christmas!" as he points to the tree. I tried to explain to him this morning that we celebrate Christmas because it is Jesus' birthday, but then he got upset because he can't stand to celebrate any birthday but his own. I'm pretty certain he cried tears when we sang "happy birthday" to Poppy last month. We'll have to work on that ... He's also very into locking doors right now. And he reminded me once again last night to NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER leave your child bare-bottomed after his bath. I can't wait until he's house-broken ... errr ... potty-trained.









We ask him everyday whether he's on Santa's naughty or nice list and he always says "naughty." It's a good thing we have this guy to report each day's activity to Santa. This morning he showed up for the first time ever. I wonder where we'll find him tomorrow ??

I LOVE IT!!! All of the pictures of course. You always have some great photos and tibdbits to share.

A friend here just posted on her blog about the Elves on the Shelves. I think we'll start that fun tradition too.

We have Elf on a Shelf too!! it's not working like I hoped! Brendan said he wants the elf to go away so he can be bad, and he doesn't want Santa to bring him any toys... he would rather be bad!! Maybe next year??

I love your new pic on your header! Gorgeous!
