Hey, Santa!

Last week, Andy and I took the boys to see Santa.

Parker was a big fan and Cole slept the whole time.

I enjoyed it because I got to dress the boys in matching Christmas sweaters. (Yes, I've become one of those mothers!)

Parker did have a few talking points to cover with Santa....

He wanted to know where the reindeer and sleigh were.

He wanted to tell Santa his other name was "St. Nick."

And lastly, he wanted to "order" his trucks. (That's really what he told Santa and us afterward...silly boy!!)

I love the holidays. But I really love experiencing the holidays through the eyes of a child. It adds another layer of joy and awe to such a special time of year.

Visiting Santa...yet another thing to love about this season!

Sweet Baby Cole

Here are Cole's newborn photos, round two. Or as Andy calls them "Naked baby, lots of hats." Either way, I enjoyed taking them almost as much as I like looking back at them. He's already grown and changed so much since that day....I kinda want to freeze time.

Here are my favorites!

If Only...

If only there were 27 hours in a day, I might get my to do list done.

If only I had started shopping before having a baby, I might not have to resort to gift cards.

If only I were more organized, every room in the house might be clean.

If only I needed less sleep, I might have time to work out.

If only my days weren't so full, I might have time to blog.

But lucky for me, my days are full...

Extremely full of these sweet boys...

And I wouldn't have it any other way!

I feel so blessed to be their Mommy. Love them!!

Cute Boys...

Parker's new favorite activity is to "go in Cole's room and take pictures."

He loves to hold his "little fella" and smile. Cole looks a little smushed in a lot of their photos together...but still cute!

Cute Brothers...

Cute Cole...

Cute Parker...

Cute Andy...

Parker actually took this picture of Andy. Pretty good for a three year old!

I think we may have another photo enthusiast on our hands!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We hope your Thanksgiving was tasty & terrific!!
