Pancakes & Pajama Party

We had a pancake and pajama party for Colby on Saturday.  All of the family made it and we celebrated my little man. I'm sad I didnt get a picture of all the kiddos, but all the cousins were there.

Colby's monkey cake (the rest of us had monkey cupcakes)

no hesitation...he dug in & loved it!
this stuff is good!

I love the sheer joy on his face...the boy loves balloons.  He also loves cake and his family...put them all together and you get a fun 1st birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!





Happy first birthday to my sweet Colby! This last year has flown by and at the same time it is hard to imagine our lives without Colbs.  He is the sweetest little boy and oh, so silly too.  He loves to snuggle and loves to make you laugh.  And when he knows he is being funny he crinkles up his little nose and throws back his head and laughs at himself.  Colby adores his big bro and wants to be anywhere that Caleb or cousin Luke is.  He started walking shortly after he turned 11 months and now he is all over the place! He has figured out how to open the gate on the stairs and loves to try to sneak up.  He absolutely loves a bath and is quite the eater too. Meat is his favorite which is funny b/c we cant get Caleb to eat any meat other than a hotdog.  He says mama, dada, uh-oh spa-o (spaghettios), jyes (yes), no, ba (ball), a-da (all done), and a few more that i'm forgetting.   We love our Colby so much!!!
and here's one of Caleb because he's looking pretty sharp in his tie too!

just reading together



Caleb and Luke have been too cute together lately.  Here they are "just reading together" on Caleb's bed.  They really get along well and their conversations lately are pretty funny.  Just the other day Luke came over early and they just hugged and  then Luke said "glad to see ya Caleb" "Glad you came over to my house Luke....watcha been doing lately" "Ohhh, just hanging out." Way too grown up for their own good!

Snow Day

This is the first time I've ever seen snow on my birthday and there was lots of snow to be seen.  We decided it would be fun to be snowed in with others and so we packed our bags and went to Pop and Gigi's house Sunday night and just came home this morning.  It's been a fun 3 days filled with birthday cake, sledding, of lots of Toy Story 3.  Here are some pics of our winter wonderland....

Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving in Savannah and on Thanksgiving morning we got up early to run the Turkey Trot.  They had a fun run for the kiddos and Caleb did a great job running it.   He was very proud of his medal!



 A huge highlight of our Thanksgiving trip to Savannah was seeing Santa.  Caleb was soooo excited about seeing the big guy this year (big change of heart from last year).  He did not hesitate to sit in his lap and tell him want he wanted and he stayed and chatted a while (there was no line).

Colby liked Santa too!
