Undies

Henry has been experimenting with underwear lately. Occasionally he request to wear it. I encourage it but I'm not pushing it. That chunky hiney sure is cute though!

36 and 4

The doctor says I'm looking great. Almost three weeks past our ultra sound that showed Baby Beau weighing 6 lbs 12 oz.  I can't help but wonder how big he is now. They say at this point babies should grow about 1/2 a pound a week. So that would push Beau over the 8 pound mark. We are all growing more and more excited to meet him. Just a little over 3 weeks to go and I'm down to weekly appointments. Almost everything is ready. 

Helpers

Daddy's little helpers. The boys helped Thomas paint Beau's room. They loved being part of preparing for our new addition...even if we did have to do some damage control afterwards. 

Snow day

Finally we got snow. Luke was so excited! Henry was excited but not as much as Luke. Luke played outside most of the day while Henry preferred to stay in except for short plays outside. These were taken Tuesday night. Wednesday morning we woke to more snow! So thankful our good friends Lynne and Paul got the boys sleds for Christmas! They worked perfectly! Luke is a pro now!

Why not have snowman pancakes for breakfast pm our snow day!

Fun day Sunday

Finally a few hours of pretty sunny weather so off to the park we went after church. 

Monster Jam

This is the face of pure excitement. Luke and Thomas went to the Monster Jam last night. This was our birthday present to Luke and it was a good one. He was on cloud nine all night.

The best part of early Winter

Jumping in our huge pile of oak leaves!

5

Breaks my heart and makes me proud at the same time, Luke is 5!! This was a big one for me. I think because 5 is my job. I deal with 5 all day. And this means he will be in elementary school next year!

He requested blue cupcakes for school

 Loves getting money in the mail! Who doesn't!

Copper brought him a balloon again this year. 

Rudolph

Cutest thing ever as we waited in line for our picture with Santa at roper mountain, a family tradition. Luke requested we go for his birthday but would not get in the picture. 

Shaving

Sweet baby boy
