When I'm Big

Driving home the other day, Blake and I were talking about getting big. I told him he needed to be a little bit bigger to climb up on a ladder we saw and so it went...

Blake: I'm gonna get bigger.
Mommy: Really, when?
Blake: Um...in 4 more days, just like Daddy.
Mommy: Wow, only 4 days.
Blake: Yes, and I'll get that hair on my face too like Daddy!

Addie's Walking

On December 11, our little angel took her first steps. We were all here to witness it and even caught it on video for all to enjoy.We're SOOOOO proud of her.

Merry Christmas

Happy Birthday My Little Angels

Our little man turned 3 on November 25 (Thanksgiving this year) and our baby girl had her first birthday on December 3! We celebrated at Grammie and Grampie's house (and Chuck E. Cheese's) with Auntie Amanda and Uncle Tony. Then we went out to eat (the four of us) back here in Birmingham. And finally when we all had a few minutes when everyone was awake and home together, we opened more presents from Grandma and Grandpa, Aunt Christine, and Monie. Thank you to everyone for making our babies' birthdays so very special.

Pure Love & Happiness

This is pure sibling love. Only Blake can make Addie laugh like this! You can just see the admiration in Addie's eyes as she watches her big brother.
