Disney Day One...












On Our Way to Disney!

Well, we are here in Florida with Matt's Mom, Dad, brother, and sister. We flew down here and here are some pictures of the way down. Eli had a great time. He did a lot better than I thought he would.  




Here he is looking out the window.



Smiling for Mommy. 



Here he is looking out the window in Knoxville trying to find our plane.



Trying out Kaleb's head phones. Not real sure :)  I think he's listening to Cars on DVD.

Thunkin and baby jesus

Classic Sophie....







I was doing dishes and i heard "slurp, slurp..." I entered the living room to find Thunkin licking baby jesus...Kaleb says he likes him. Sophie is bringing mary into the action. She is obsessed with mary..... Catholic?

Our Christmas tree farm was closed, so we "cut " our tree down on the highway. Memorable. Kaleb brought his handy manny saw and took care of it for us. He said " It is working! It is working"

Visit with Santa




We all went over to Pop's house last night for a visit with Santa. The kids were very surprised! Andrew was so surprised that he pooped on Santa! I can't wait to put that in his baby book! It gave us all a good laugh. Stay tuned for more photos of Santa's visit from Jan...she took some really cute ones of all the kids.

Gingerbread House









































Abigail and Luke decorated their very own gingerbread house on Sunday night. Abigail did most of the decorating (as you can see from the photos) while Luke ate most of the candy! If you look closely in the last picture you can see Luke stuffing a little piece of candy up his nose. I made him blow his nose once I realized what he was doing and several pieces popped out! I couldn't stop laughing. He must have taken lessons from Sophie! We also got our Christmas tree on Friday thanks to Pops. Abigail picked out one of the prettiest trees that we have ever had! She did it in less than 10 seconds. For all of you that know me well know that she does not take after me in decision making. I'd still be trying to decide! Pops drove it to our house and set it up for us since Jeremy is still not able to lift anything after his surgery. We watched Frosty the Snowman, drank boiled custard and decorated the tree all in our new Christmas pj's on Saturday evening. You've got to love Christmas!

2 Month Check Up




Andrew had his 2 month check up today. He was 12 lbs 4 oz and 21 1/2 inches long. He got all of his shots today. He took the first one like a champ and then the other two he cried like a baby!!! His clogged tear duct is no longer clogged! He has a little muscle in his neck that is tight. It causes his head to turn to the left. It is common in babies (remember Kubby!). We are supposed to do certain stretches with his neck daily to hopefully strengthen and lengthen that muscle. Doc will take a look at it again at his 4 month check up and if it is not better than we will have to take him to physical therapy. It doesn't seem to bother Andrew. He is all smiles these days. He loves his swing...it puts him to sleep in no time! He also loves his new boucy seat (thanks Jan for the gift card...I finally used it!). He is quickly growing out of his 0-3 month sleepers. He does the cutest thing after he nurses...he stretches his arms and scrunches up his forehead. I just love it! He absolutely loves Abigail. He lights up any time he hears her. We are really enjoying him!

BEAUTIFUL DAY!

It was such a beautiful day today that I decided to get Eli dressed up and take some pictures for Christmas presents.  We had such a great time in our backyard.  It's been so cold lately we haven't gotten to enjoy it much.  The pictures turned out pretty good and I think I know which one I will use.

Working out???


Matt and I moved our treadmill in our bedroom Monday night and I found Eli in there on the treadmill eating his lunch yesterday. He was proud.

Kaleb's helmet





Kaleb will turn 4 this Friday, so we had his Birthday party last saturday night. All the cousins were sick, so it was a low key party. Pops got him a helmet and he has not taken it off except to sleep. Grandma got him this monster card and he likes to
"scare me" with it. He opens it up and then, laughs and laughs as I scream.
