Snow!!

We had snow!! We had about 4 inches. It started Friday night and Aidan was not so thrilled that Andrew and Carrie took him out to see. It continued snowing all Saturday, it was quite windy too. We did not venture out until Sunday. Saturday night Carrie decided to use her mini muffin pan with a pound cake recipe. We had over 100 mini cupcakes and 8 regular cupcakes. Sunday we delivered them to our neighbors. Aidan played with the twins down the street and went over and sledded with all the other neighbors in someone's backyard. Aidan enjoyed throwing snowballs the most and was not happy about coming in for lunch.

Watch for Rain!

We were getting ready to vacuum today and Aidan found an umbrella. He showed us how you use it. It was too cute so Andrew snapped a few shots and we just had to share.

Taking a Walk

The Boys and Carrie went for a walk around the neighborhood today. The shade on our jog stroller just don't quite block the sunlight. Aidan sported his Thomas Sunglasses and Logan did pretty well with an old pair of Aidans. It really helped Logan enjoy the walk much more. Carrie thought they looked so cute she had to take some photos to share.

Logan Joseph is 9 months old!!

Our precious Logan is now 9 months old! We cannot believe it! We are on the downhill towards his First Birthday! Logan is a super active little man. He started crawling in November and 5 days later pulled up to standing. Since December he is cruising all over the place. He jabbers, "Mamamamamama", "Dadadadadaadadada." His fine motor skills baffle us. He will take the smallest portion of a toy and spin it with a single finger. He loves wheels and balls. He is still a super sleeper and prefers to be in bed as opposed to someone's arms. If a bed is not available his will stubbornly stay awake as long as possible. He will crawl after Aidan running through the house. Logan becomes frustrated that he can't catch Aidan and will scream in anger. He then takes a short cut to catch back up with Aidan. He loves to find stray crayon pieces and eat them. The two boys are in two different directions getting into a large amount of trouble. They live large! Logan loves people and especially dogs. His 9 Month Stats are: Height: 28.5 in(50%) Weight: 17.8 lbs(5%) Head Circum: 47 cm(90%) Here's a video of Logan riding on a toy bike we have.

Merrry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas!!

We hope everyone had a Very Merry Christmas!! We headed to Church on Christmas Eve and boy was it crowded! It became very warm in the Sanctuary and that made Logan not a happy camper. After a cool down in the common area he was more comfortable. Aidan was excited to see his Cousins and Grandma. He spent most of Mass trying to play with Tabitha. After church we headed to Nana and Grandpop's for dinner and gift exchange. Aidan really enjoyed opening presents this year. Logan enjoyed crawling through the paper. The boys were zonked and we headed home. We put the boys to bed and waited for Santa. There was no sleeping done in our house. At 4am Aidan decided he was awake, hungry and MUST go downstairs. We coaxed him to stay in our bed. Carrie and Andrew slept for two hours and then it was Christmas Morning! Boy, have we learned our lesson! There is just too much excitement for Santa! :-) The boys were estatic. Santa brought them a Train Table! How fantastic! He stuffed their stockings with trains and toys. Grandpa and Grandma came over to give the boys their gifts and see the boys enjoying their Santa Goodies! Carrie made some cinnamon rolls and we headed to her Sister's with gifts and food! Over there we ate and ate and ate. The kids all were wound tight and enjoying the gifts. Everyone was exhausted and we headed home for naps and to make food to take for Chrsitmas Dinner at Meme and Papa's. We enjoyed dinner and talking. The kids all had a blast! What an exhuasting day of running around! We have been and will continue trying to keep a less hectic schedule for the sake of the boys and ourselves. We'll see what happens next year! Hope you all enjoy the collage!

Family Birthday

Today we celebrated Aidan's Birthday with our family and friends. Aidan enjoyed playing with his cousins and friends. Thank you for coming!

Our Aidan is 2!!

Happy Birthday Aidan!!
We cannot believe how fast the last two years have flown by. Aidan amazes us with each passing day. He is speaking very clearly and learning new words everyday. We is always busy playing with anything. He truly enjoys using his imagination. His Two Year Stats are: Height:36.5 in (90%) Weight: 32 lb (90%)

Here is a video of Aidan playing with his gifts from Mom, Dad and Logan.

We celebrated with Grandparents and Uncle's on his Birthday. Carrie made a giant sugar cookie (Andrew had to capture it in the oven) and decorated it with Blue's Clues. One of Aidan's favorite shows. He enjoys playing Blue's Clues finding a paw print and shouting, "A clue a clue!". He loves the "Thinking Song." He will sing it and act out the motions too. He loves drawing especially in a "Handy Dandy Notebook"!! Aidan enjoyed getting a kitchen set and an easel. Now we can play with his pots and pans and can now draw with chalk inside the house!

Saturday we are having the family party with a Thomas the Train theme. Here is a sneak peek of the cake! (From 11/27)
