Some of the Christmas photos

I don't have time to load all the pictures right now, but here are a few to get us started.

We haven't had Christmas in Omaha yet because the big boys are with their mom. We figured since Isaac wasn't old enough to understand yet, we could wait and celebrate Christmas together at least this year.

Annie and Tristan

I love this picture!

Isaac trying out his new toy from Grandma and Grandpa.

Didn't take long to figure out standing with this new toy.

Spending time with Uncle Tristan.

Isaac loved his hat!

Here's one of my new favorite toys!
Opening presents with Daddy

Opening my stocking with Mom

One of my favorite pictures of the weekend.

Isaac tried out the piano. He liked making noise. I like his long eyelashes.

Playing some tunes

Playing with Daddy.

On the Inside...

On the inside...looking out - the world looks WET!

I can see my reflection

UH - OH!

Mommy caught me!

Santa Baby

Dear Santa,
I have been good this year... well at least the last 8 1/2 months since that's all the time I have been here. Can't you seen how good I look like I have been?

Our very own little Santa Baby.

Music in our house

At any given moment.... you might hear us singing or playing music in our house. However, last weekend, after I vacuumed the hallway, I looked down at the cord and found it looking like this.

I promise you that I did not place it this way. I thought it was pretty cool so therefore the picture. Music shows up in the strangest places in our house.

Snow (And Lots of it)

The boys thoroughly enjoyed their 3 day break from school a week or so ago. They built forts and also made a polar bear. I know.... most kids make snowmen. Mine... make polar bears!

Isaac in a box

Why play with the toys when you can sit in the box?

* Isaac says Da Da Da all the time

* Thinks his brothers are the best play toys

Isaac,

You are such a good baby. We love you and are so happy you are part of our family. Daddy and I love the twinkle in your eye and watching you explore and learn new things. You are inquisitive and busy. We are excited to see what you learn in the next month. We love you baby boy!

Love,

Mommy and Daddy
