All Dressed Up

I took the kids to get their pictures taken this morning...it was our second attempt. I still didn't get what I wanted so I decided to try myself at home. They sure can be cute when they want to be!

He Sleeps...

Aidan has napped in his crib! My velcro baby CAN sleep without me, contrary to popular belief! It may not happen often enough, but he can do it!

First Snow

We have snow! Nealy was VERY excited and we ended up having to go out in it twice... it was cold. Nealy and I went out when it was first starting, then we all went out after Wes came home from school. We ended up getting probably 4 inches. Enough for a late start the next day for Wes! Aidan was less than thrilled to be out. He likes to be warm. We got a few pictures and brought him inside.

Princess or Butterfly???

And the world of dress up as begun. Nealy wore this little outfit ALL DAY. She took her nap in it, she wore it while she ate (which was REALLY funny with a big t-shirt over it as a bib!), and she would tell anyone and everyone that she was a princess butterfly. I don't think you can tell from the pictures, but it had wings. She even would jump off furniture trying to fly... who needs any other source of entertainment when you have a two year old???

Down to Business

Aidan has been working hard in his "office". I can't believe this is my newborn!

I'm So Cool...I gotta wear shades

A Nature Walk....sort of

It's been a bit on the chilly side lately, but Bug really wanted to go outside. We bundled up and took a walk in the woods and found some very pretty leaves. Aidan was along for the ride, but wrapped tightly around his momma!

Aidan is Three Months!

Our big boy is three months old! Yeah Aidan! Aidan is tipping the scales at over 15 pounds! He rolls, smiles, and giggles his way into our hearts. His little personality is really starting to show. He is our big boy!

Fun with Leaves

We spent Thanksgiving day at Wes' grandparents in VA. The weather was beautiful, and Nealy and Aunt Susie had some much needed fun in the leaves!

Grammie, Gramps, and Lala

Grammie, Gramps, and Lala stopped to spend some time with us after the wedding, and before they ventured to the Egan's for Thanksgiving. It's fun to see how the kids (okay, really Nealy), acts on her own turf. She loves having visitors, and getting lots of cuddles!

Dance Party

I realize she has a lot of energy, but didn't imagine it could last so long! Nealy danced. She danced with Caroline in their matching dresses, she danced with Drew...she danced with anyone that would dance with her. The kids were SO CUTE. It hurt to watch them. They all were so good and so active.

Wedding Bells

We took the family and traveled to see Uncle Joe get married. Nealy took a little nap on Wes during the ceremony, not quite long enough, but it gave her enough energy to last well into the reception. Aidan slept as well. He was such a good boy! Nealy had a blast with her cousins, especially Caroline. Those two are two peas in a pod! Congrats Joe and Katie!

Rainy days

It would figure. The weather goes from too hot, to too cold, and now it's raining and drizzly for days. We've had lots of fun staying at home! Nealy loves to paint pictures (especially for Daddy), and has finally figured out how to peddle her bike! Yeah Nealy!!! Aidan has been watching his sister very carefully too!

A sleepy girl...

Nealy didn't get her typical nap. We tried to keep her awake until close to seven so she would sleep all night. She couldn't quite do it. She was fast asleep by 5:45, only to awaken two hours later and want dinner. It all could have been a lot worse, and I do believe Wes loved holding his babies!
