X-mas 2011


Well the 2011 Holidays are finally over.  Everybody had a great time, and I finally have a minute to catch up and go through all the pictures that we took.

 Having fun with Mommy at Garden d'lights at Bellevue Botanical Gardens

GranDan set up the x-mas train for Matt.  It was quite popular. 

This one is random, but I had to post it.  Matt was helping Jamie open the mail and found himself a "little hat"

Lily and Grandpa J.

Ann, Grandma and Grandpa got Matt a new play kitchen for x-mas. (see previous video.)  So far I think this has gotten more use than any other x-mas present.

Tummy time in the x-mas jammies.

This was a week or so before x-mas.  She can now reach the ground in the jumper.

No idea why this is crooked.  Matt decided that since Lily couldn't reach the ground, he would help her.


I told Matt if he didn't stop that I was going to post his picture on the blog.

He wasn't happy with me.

Happy girl!

Making Gingerbread houses can get exciting.

How much went on the house vs. into Matt?  50/50.

Nice looking house.

Too much partying.

Matt and Felix found something worth watching on TV.  Must have been good to stop 2 three year olds in their tracks like that.

Matt as a wiseman getting ready for church.

More turned pictures, they must have changed the blogger software on me.

Lily trying on Grandma's new hat.

That Grandpa Johnson is pretty entertaining...

Not even 3 months old and she's got her first computer.

There's a baby in there somewhere...

Found her!

Matt doing some rock throwing at the beach.

At the Cabin, Lily managed to snag the coveted couch corner position.

Hanging with Grandma

He's not having any fun at all.....

Shoveling snow.

Matt decided GranDan needed help cooking dinner.

Snow!

Matt decided Lily need to play in some "snow" too.  Another kleenex box gone.

Lily and Auntie.

Love that baby girl.

Ready to GO!

Watching snow blowing.

Roasting marshmallows.  You can see Matt's orange gloves. 

Taking Poppy snowmobiling.

Happy new year everybody!

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.

Playing with little sister.

Prefered napping position.

Staring contest with Auntie Tina.

Taking a little nap with Auntie Linda

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.
