Welcome to December!

Drezden woke us up this morning at 5:30 am and to our surprise - tons of snow! As you can see by the picture- it is beginning to look a lot like Christmas:)


















Because Drezden woke up at 5:30 am- he fell asleep multiple times throughout the day. In the picture below, he literally just fell over on the couch and was out! His dad was also sleepy....

Drezden has been so funny lately. After he does something or after something happens he says, "Ah Man!" For example, when he woke up this morning and saw the snow he said, "Ah Man!" He has mastered a lot of animal sounds too. Our favorite being the answer to what an elephant says. He pushes his lips together and blows really hard! It is adorable.

He loves the "Baby Movie" (Ice Age) and Lilo and Stitch. He would watch them all day if we would let him. He loves to say Elmo. Whenever he sees Elmo, Nemo, or Lilo- he points and says Elmo! It must be one of those combo words!

We are getting excited for Christmas! The tree is decorated, the stockings aren't quite finished...! Soon:) We hope that ya'll have a great Holiday Season.

Family Pictures

James turned 26 last week!! Thank you to all of the family and friends that called, sent cards, took us out to eat, etc.! He had a great birthday and already "feels old!"

We went and took our family pictures for our annual Christmas cards on Saturday. Trying to get Drezden to hold still long enough to take a picture was a challenge! The photographer was trying to get him to keep his hands crossed and so James and I told him to fold his arms. Well, not only did he fold his arms, he bowed his head and closed his eyes too! Definitely not conducive to a taking pictures! It was so cute though- one of those sweet cherished moments.
Watch the mail for our really cute Christmas Cards!

We went with James family to take some family pictures a few weeks ago. Here are each of his siblings, their families, and his parents. Enjoy!
