A Little Lift

Teddy Bear asked for a ride and Addie's not one to let a friend down...

Two Are Always Better Than One

Two are always better than one, right? Maybe Addie is falling into her mommy's indecisive ways and couldn't decide which one to pick...? Whatever it may be, she is sure one silly girl.

Tree Hunting

Wesley wanted a "really big big big" tree this year. He definitely takes after his daddy with that. :) I remember the first Christmas after we were married I had to measure the space in the duplex where the tree was going to go to keep Ben in-line with what tree size would fit. I even took the tape measure out to the tree field. This year we once again made the angel touch the ceiling and it was a really wide tree. In the picture below he wanted both trees. He cracks me up. This was Addie's first time out getting a tree with us since she was too little last year.

The Nativity

Wesley really got into helping put out the Christmas decorations this year. He was in charge of setting up the Nativity. I think he did a pretty good job. :)

Gingerbread House

Wesley had been bugging me about making a gingerbread house so one Saturday we quick ran out and got one. I put the house together while he was napping so that as soon as he woke up he could decorate it. He absolutely loved it and so I think another Christmas tradition is born.

Addie's New Bag of Tricks

Walking isn't the only thing Addie has been up to. She has learned how to get on and off the couch by herself. She uses the small Mickey Mouse couch as a step up. To get down she dives back onto the small couch. She thinks she's hot stuff.

Monkeying Around

So while we were shopping at the Baroda City Mill we came across a brown sock monkey hat. It just so happened that Wesley was in need of a new winter hat and Ben said that we just had to get it for him. Then while Christmas shopping a few weeks later we found a pink one for Addie. Perfect! We now have two sock monkey kids and we get comments on them EVERYWHERE we go.
