3 Months

Our little man is growing! Slowly...but he is! I just still cant believe how little he is. I guess I can't help myself for thinking that when Norah is the precedent.

See what I mean...Can anyone say thunder thighs?

He sure is a happy guy though and we love that his personality is showing more of itself these days.

We are getting more smiles and on the verge of laughing:)

And Norah continues to amaze me on how such a good big sister she has become. She loves "Baby Hammy" just as much as we do!

And we think he likes her too....sometimes it's hard to tell ;)

Merry Christmas ya Filthy Animal

{PICTURE OVERLOAD}

Christmas has come and gone yet another year!

So this Christmas was a first for us. It was the first Christmas ever not going home to Missouri. It was quiet and low-key not being home with all the hustle and bustle of being surrounded by family but we did the best we could to make it a special time for our little family.

Here are the kiddo's in their Christmas best before Church (someone has her sassy pants on).

We couldn't forget Sadie.

Daddy Daughter love

These two munchkins make my world turn. And sometimes shake it, turning it upside down. But I love them for it anyway ;)

We kept the tradition of making Christmas cookies on Christmas eve now that Norah is big enough to help (sort of). Norah, Jane and Caroline (her cousins) helped from making the dough, cutting out the cookies to decorating. The whole Shebang! And they loved every minute of it.

They each got their own plate with frosting and sprinkles. A lot of frosting got eaten before it touched a cookie...

"CHEEEESSSEE"

Christmas morning was so much fun as it is really the first Christmas Norah is big enough to understand what is going on. Well, she didn't in the beginning but after we explained it to her she got the hang of emptying her stocking and ripping open presents.

Grandma and Grandpa Furnell got her a Buzz Lightyear! Now the Toy Story gang is complete. She thinks it's really cool to shoot me with his laser...sigh...

Grandma and Grandpa Tracy got her a singing teapot. The same one she likes to play with at their house. Now she has her very own!

We let Norah open Hamilton's presents and then she would bring them over to him and say, "here you go baby" and drop them on his lap before opening another one lol.

And to round off the morning, Santa brought Norah an indoor trampoline! Santa must have been thinking, "this girl is going to need to burn off some energy in these coming winter months." Good thinking Santa...

It may not seem Hamilton was there, but he was. See. Proof :)

After a delicious breakfast of homemade orange rolls, Daniel's sister's fam Rachel, Scott and their girls came over to spend the day. The girls had a wonderful time! The girls played while we made a delicious turkey dinner with all the trimmings, watched movies and ate ourselves sick.

We even played in the snow...Yep we had a white Christmas!

Here we are closing the day.

My heart is full with love and gratitude this Holiday season. My love for the Savior continues to grow with my growing family. And I thank Him everyday:)

Merry Christmas from our home to yours!!!

2 Months

Happy two months Hamilton!

Today has been rough for H man. But getting shots will do that to ya. He's sleeping it off while Norah is watching Cinderella so I have a few minutes to blog! Mostly browse Pinterest, but blog too:)

H is doing very well. He's a great baby. A bit spoiled, but great lol. When he's awake he likes to be held. He would love it if someone would be walking around while he faces out but he's also content to lay in your lap while rocking your knees back and forth. Such a stinker.

Other than that, oh...and he still likes to nurse about every 3 hours. Even during the night. I'll give him a little longer to kick that habit. But seriously, he's a great baby!!!
