Matt and the new kitchen

Matt got one of his Christmas presents early since Aunt Ann won't be in town over the holidays.  It's proven to be a very popular toy.  Thanks Ann!

Catching up before Christmas...

Well, it's been almost a month since I posted, and longer since new Lily pics went up, so I thought I better catch up a little in that department before we roll into the full on chaos of the holiday season.

That second kid seems to have added a layer of chaos never seen before, but watching Matt and Lily interact is so much fun. Matt's still loving his little sister, and Lily lights up when her attention locks on Matt doing something goofy.

Lily is growing like a little Virnig weed, last night at her 2 month checkup she was 12lbs40z, and 23.25" long. Her reflux stuff seems to be getting better week by week, but she seems to be sensitive to some foods, so Jamie is currently off of milk, eggs and chocolate. Thank god she doesn't have a sensitivity to wine, or I'm not sure Jamie would make it.

Anyway, here's what everyone has been asking for, more pictures!

 

Everybody bouncing on the ball.

Plugged!

Hmmmm..There appears to be something in your nose...

Auntie Kate stopped by for a visit.

I love how Matt's still just enjoying himself in this one.

How incredibly cute lily is getting, and how alarmingly bald I'm getting...

Checking out big brother's toys.

They both look happy here!

Being sweet with little Sister.

Tummy time!

 Trying to entertain her as usual.

 Still napping on Daddy.

 Hi Mommy!

 Making Thanksgiving Turkeys!

 "What?"

Jamie's Family accompanied us the day after Thanksgiving to the tree farm to get a real tree again this year.  Before we even made it through the parking lot, Matt scored a Candy Cane of the Santa. 

 I'm not responsible for this scarf.

 Looking for a tree is Grandma and Auntie Ann.

 The tree is bundled and ready to go!

 "Come on Grandpa, this way!"

 Can't see much of Lily this year in the group photo.

 All lit up!

Just after a diaper change.

 Snowglobe capturing the baby's  attention.

 What a clown.

 Getting ready for Christmas.

 This is one of about 40 pictures we took.  Only one with both kids smiling.

Chilling with Dad.

Notice the red line on his forehead.  Time for a new hat...

 

This one was taken yesterday.  Getting so cute.

Hope everyone had a good thanksgiving.  I'm taking some time off during the holidays, so hopefully holiday pictures will be posted soon after new years.
