Frosty the Snowman

This cartoon must have been played 50 times over the Christmas break.  Even Jacob found some enjoyment in this classic.

Merry Christmas!

We are running a little behind but better late than never for this Christmas memory.

Pre Christmas festivities

A trip to the Hill Country Galleria with friends, anxiously awaiting a visit from Santa.  Taken just after a romp in the fake snow.  Yes, we can snow with 80 degree Texas winter weather. 

It pays to be the first in line for a chat with Santa...taking a load off in Santa's chair with the boys

All I want is a 'thiretruck and a car'...I'm nice to my little brother...promise :-)

Ta - Da !  It was worth the wait :-)

Used Car

Jacob has recently taken title to the "Fred Flintstone" car.  He's not able to move around in it quite yet but seems to enjoy the all the accessories on the dashboard.  It's now just a matter of keeping Noah from pushing his little brother around the house at speeds far above the speed limit.

Calendar

We have been raking leaves in the middle of December.  While this activity relative to the rest of the country occurs late in the year in Texas, it seems to have come extra-late this year. 

Christmas Cards

I don't think this precious image will make it through the Christmas card selection committee this year!

Cousin Nicholas

Appears to be a resemblance in this photo taken during puzzle time before bed.

A Helping Hand (or Two)

Jacob has a strong grip and will force your hand away from the bottle at times.  With that in mind, we decided to try and let him feed himself.  He did quite well and gave us a few extra minutes of time back in our lives.

Noah Week....

...ends with a smile!!!

Safety First

He gets a little bit better on his Stryder bike everytime he goes out on it.  It is nice that he is always willing to put the helmet on before venturing out.

Country Boy

Noah loves being in the country and playing outdoors.  Give him some rocks and sticks and that's all he needs.

Grocery Shopping

He appears to be feeling better and his energy is back to normal. After a quick trip to wash the Xterra and grab a bite at McDonalds on Saturday morning, Noah was all smiles at HEB.  Noah Week is looking up!

Noah Week

Noah Week begins with him under the weather.  He missed an entire week of school due to something he picked up over Thanksgiving.  For some reason he enjoys the coffee table and is sprawled out on it in this picture.

Off to School....

...in his fall colors.
