Christmas Cookies.

Hunter and his Nana have a tradition of making and decorating sugar cookies at Christmas time. Hunter loves spending time with just his Nana without his little brother. This is a special thing for the two of them and I hope it continues for a long time! They both smile and laugh so much while decorating. So sweet! Poor Nana is left to clean up sprinkles of her floor for days and sometimes weeks! Those pesky sprinkles do not clean up easy!

Gingerbread House.

Hunter made his first Gingerbread House the other day. He had so much fun putting all the candy on it! He listened and did not eat any of it since he wanted the house to be pretty. He sat at the kitchen counter for almost an hour working away and was very proud of how it turned out! Even Christian got in on the action. I loved watching the two of them bond!

Flying Evan!!!

Evan loves to play airplane and "fly" on my feet! He laughs, giggles and smiles the entire time! He will pick my feet up and lean against them once I put him down to make me do it again. He is such a smart kid!

18 Months!

Evan is 18 months old today! I still do not know how that happened. Time is going too fast! Evan went for his 18 month check up today and is doing great! He is just over 25 pounds and is 33 inches. Tall and thin! He is not nearly at heavy as Hunter was at this age. Hunter was just under 30 pounds and was 33 1/4 inches. Evan is hitting all his milestones and is ready to start getting introduced to the potty. Again, how did he get so big so fast??? Evan also has 6 words - Mama, Daddy, Nana, Dog, All Done and Hi. So, really that is 7. I am so proud of my little man!

New Family Tradition.

We started a new family tradition this December. Every December 5th we will be going out to get our Christmas Tree in honor of my Papa. He passed away on December 5, 2007. We could not think of a better way to remember my Papa every year! Both our boys had a blast running around the tree lot looking for the perfect tree. But, man was it cold!!! We found the perfect tree and had happy boys!

Weebles!!!

Evan got some Weebles from his Godparents over the weekend and LOVES them!!! He will play with them for the longest time. Then when Hunter annoys him they become great throwing toys! Look out Hunter. Let the fun begin!!! Hunter also got a really cool gift - a Spiderman Triple Battle Truck. He plays with that truck over and over again and has to show everyone his new truck! These little boys sure are lucky to have Aunt Erin and Uncle Marius!

School Work.

Hunter LOVES school! I am so happy that he does and can only hope that he keeps that viewpoint. He brought home an Advent Calendar to color last week and had so much fun coloring it! He sat right at the counter coloring away and was very proud of the completed project. I was quite impressed that he sat still so long!
