First Haircut and first snow!

The boys had their first haircuts and were very patient. We were thinking we would just trim up the back but it was better to just cut everything! The boys loved being pulled up and down the driveway in their sleds. Cade loved eating the snow and Calin kept taking his gloves off. They didn't know what to think of the snowflakes coming down. We're looking forward to many more snow adventures!

Merry Christmas!

We love having fires and the boys have been very good watching them from a distance.
The first fire Cade saw he couldn't stop laughing at it. Not sure why but it was funny.
The boys enjoying Grandma Shelley's cookies!


Calin thought this was the day he could fit past the lock and chain right into the pantry! Every part but his head made it. At first he was crying because he was stuck and then because I took pictures instead of helping....


Cade got a fat lip so here are both boys enjoying popsicles.

I'm guessing 5lbs of hair at least. I think they're ready to join an 80s rock band!


We took the 30 minute tour at the Zoo Lights. It was very pretty but it became dark close to bedtime so we had to leave in a hurry.


Visit with Santa. 1 out of 2 isn't bad.

Christmas morning! The boys loved opening their presents!

Fa la la la-21 months old!!

"Hey, there's the one ornament!" We decided to decorate the tree lightly this year as we didn't know if the boys would tackle the tree. Not to worry though, they were able to knock ornaments off their grandparents' tree.


"You guys aren't standing on the couch are you??" or "No hitting the blinds!" Those phrases are said on a daily basis. It's kind of cute how they dive into the couch and hide behind the pillows like they weren't doing anything wrong.

Finally we were able to get a picture for our Christmas cards. Just a few tears before Dad was able to make them smile.

This is such a sweet picture. I love how Calin is looking at Cade.
The real reason they were laughing, no pants!
