Baby's First Christmas

We took Liam to the mall so he could have his picture taken with Santa, just like we did with Tessa for her first Christmas. Liam was all smiles, while Tessa would only sit next to Santa (not on his lap) and just stare at him.

Here comes Santa Clause

We went to my Mom's work Thursday night for the President's Dinner. After dinner the kids got a surprise visit from Santa, Liam thought he was funny but Tessa was not to sure.

Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving this year we went to Uncle Randy & Aunt Janet's house, its tradition with my dad's family. Its been a long time since I have been there and we were so glad we were able to make it and spend time with everyone.

Liam's First Turkey-Day!















Every one tells me that Liam looks just like my dad, what do you think?

Spending Time with Family

While we were gone we got to spend lots of quality time with family,

Julianne and Brent's Wedding

While we were on vacation in sunny California we went to my step-sister Julianne's wedding. The wedding and reception were lots of fun especially for Tessa, who danced the night away with "the princess" (the bride).

CONGRATULATIONS BRENT & JU!

Halloween

For Halloween this year Tessa decided she wanted to be a "ta ta" (doctor) and I decided that Liam will be a turtle since that has been his nickname since he was born. They looked very cute, we also had a little monkey (Charlie) in our house. During the day we went trick-or-treating at Grammy's work then at Daddy's work. In the evening we went trick-or-treating at the mall, then went to the fire station so Tessa could go to work in the ambulance. We had a spooky good time and can't wait to do it all again next year.

Doctor, Doctor, give me the news.

another PEPSI lover

I gave him this bottle after I was done thinking he could play with it, but it went straight to his mouth like he actually knew what to do with it.

Prunes anyone?

We have just started to give Liam baby food. On this day he had prunes, he did not particularly like them.
