Starbucks

We're the awesome parents who buy our 2 year old Starbucks. Don't worry it wasn't coffee.

Christmas Day

Just a few pictures of today. More to come but for now I must get my slumber because there's more festivities to come this weekend.

As Elijah said "HoHo ate all the cookies!"

Yes I'm one of those corny moms who bought the kids matching pj's.

Merry Christmas!

Apparently Elijah thought the wise men and Joseph were bad and had to go to the corner ... or they were walking away

I had Nathaniel relaxing in his tub one morning while I got ready. Elijah thought he needed a duck to go with his pajamas.How I found Elijah one morning this week.

about 20

inches is our total in our yard.
This is the view from Elijah's bedroom door. The big hump is his picnic table.

Spin art. I saw this on this website and decided to do it tonight since Elijah was really antsy. Yes that is a Salad Spinner.

Pottery Time

The other day I took the boys to Family Clay Time to make a Santa's cookies plate. We made a reindeer using Elijah's hands for the antlers and Nathaniel's foot for the head.

Ho Ho Ho

Yesterday the township had a brunch with Santa so we took the boys. At least Elijah isn't screaming like last year. haha

Nathaniel took advantage of his brother not bothering him and took a nap.

Elijah is also getting his 2 year molars so it's been a fun (note the sarcasm) week around here.

Fruit and flowers

The traditional wedding gifts for 4 years of marriage. 4 years ago we walked down the aisle and said I do. Happy anniversary to us!

some pictures from our photo session for Christmas card this year

today was chilly and rainy so we stayed in and I made Elijah his first sheet fort. By the end of the night he had 2 blankets, his pillow and some toys in there.

While visiting family we took Elijah to see HoHo lights. Here we are at Candy Cane lane.
All ready to go.

Riding his cousin's bike on Thanksgiving.

A day early but

Elijah being a big helper

Apparently we wore Elijah out this weekend. He fell asleep sitting on his little chair while watching tv last night.
