Christmas!

We had a lovely Christmas despite the snow storm that tried to mess everything up. We made it to Church and my Grandma Rosie's house on Christmas Eve for our normal festivities. It was a smaller crowd with the snow keeping away some of the out of town relatives, but we still had a great time and Tommy had fun playing with his cousins!

On Christmas Day we had my parents and Mike's sister and mom over for the day. Tommy loved opening his presents and kept asking for more! How quickly they learn! Then my Grandma Rosie came over for Christmas dinner. It was a delicious lasagna that my Mom made. Yummy! Thanks Mom! Overall we had a great Christmas!

Tommy got a lot of new puzzles which he loves!

Oh look, a new stick to beat things with! :)

More presents!

He got very good at wripping off the paper!

Mike and I (or Santa) got him a Geotrax set with the Cars characters which he loves!


After presents we went outside and made a snowman. Tommy was very excited and enjoyed the time outside!

Tommy and his snowman!

He didn't want to go in even though he had rosy cheeks and it was quite cold!

Christmas with Amy and Paige!

Amy and Paige came to town to celebrate Christmas for a few days and we had a great time with them! Dad and Mike took the kids sledding and they had a great time. Tommy liked getting pulled up the hill better than going down the hill! It was kinda crazy! Paige and Grandpa had a great time going down the hill and they flew so far every time!

What a cutie!

Then we went back to Mom and Dad's and the kids played together and opened presents. They always have such a good time together!

Playing on the computer

They had fun opening presents!

Tommy loves his new Woody and Buzz toys!

He also got a scooter, thanks Amy and Paige!!!

We got Paige Madden 10 and she loved it!!!

We had a great time celebrating with them and were sad to see them leave!

It's a boy!!!

We had our ultrasound for the second baby at the beginning of November and he was healthy and everything was looking good. We decided to find out the sex of the baby this time around and are very excited to give Tommy a little brother. He still doesn't understand and says he doesn't want a baby, but I am sure he will love it when it happens. He loves babies. We got to see my cousin Brent's little boy this weekend and Tommy was very gentle with him and really loved him! He was so little and snuggly, only two weeks old, and it made me anxious to hold our own little boy in our arms soon! Here are our ultrasound photos!

Long legs again and I can already feel them kicking hard!

What a cutie!!!

Here are a couple of photos of Tommy enjoying our new glider. He looked so cute that I had to share them!

Happy Birthday!!!

We want to wish Amy a happy birthday! We hope you enjoy your day and we can't wait to see you next week to celebrate!!!

Silly Boy

Tommy came out of the office with the garbage can on his head the other day. Luckily it is see through so he didn't run into anything!

Chillin with Grandpa's hat on

He really likes his suckers!

Finally Halloween Photos!

I know I am super behind and I have no excuses, but I thought I should finally post the Halloween photos. Tommy really loved everything to do with Halloween this year. I am sure the fact that Mike and I love it helped though! He really loves pumpkins, ghosts and spiders. He had a lot of fun dressing up and after he figured out trick or treating he wanted to dress up more and kept saying trick or treat to us to get candy! He is too smart for our own good!!!

He really got into carving pumpkins!

Franken-Tommy trick or treating!

Rar!!!

Sharing popcorn with Uncle Jeff

We walked around my parent's neighborhood and Tommy made out pretty good! It was a great night and Tommy really enjoyed his first real experience with trick or treating!

We went a little crazy carving pumpkins this year, but Tommy really enjoyed it so we kept going!

Checking out the pumpkins

All the pumpkins

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

We hope you all have a great Thanksgiving and get to spend some time with family!

Happy Birthday!!!

I want to wish my wonderful husband a very happy birthday today!!! Thanks for being such a great husband and father! You are the best and we love you very much!!!

Even though Mike thinks I am absolutely crazy, I decided I should try on my wedding dress one last time before baby #2 makes an appearance. I have decided it is a good thing I wasn't pregnant at the wedding since I had a very hard time getting my dress on!

Octoberfest

Mike, Tommy and I went to Octoberfest with my parents, Amy, Paige, Grandma Rosie, Denise and Terry. It was filled with music, dancing and good food. We had a great time!
