James on Christmas Morning

Christmas was a ton of fun for us this year! James was so funny, it was like he knew it was Christmas. He woke up at 6 a.m. and was full of energy. There was no chance he was going back to sleep. He was kicking and smiling for about an hour or so when Brady and I finally gave in and went to see what Santa left.
Santa brought James this bouncy toy( he is way too small for it). We put him in it and he was thoroughly enjoying just sitting in it for like a half hour it was great. We just kept laughing because he was so content in this thing that he cant do anything with right now.
We had a wonderful day being with family:)

Me and my little man

Just love this little guy.
I love how everyday is
a new adventure with him.
He smiles lots and is my
best little bud.






Right now James weighs 11 lbs 3 oz
he is 23 inches long and is a little over
2 months old.
He loves taking baths and smiling and
laughing. And he hates his car seat!

Family Christmas Party

My moms side of the family has a Christmas party every year out at the officers club on base. We have a yummy dinner,we do the nativity, santa comes and the kids have a talent show. Its always tons of fun! This year I think there was around 85 of us, crazy!

and don't my boys look so sharp and handsome? I think so :)

One Happy Boy

James makes us laugh every day. He smiles a lot now and its so much fun!
These pictures make me smile.

Blessing Day

James Was blessed yesterday December 4th 2011.
Brady gave James such a beautiful blessing and James was an angel. He didnt cry, grunt, poop or anything of the sort during the blessing, which we were very afraid of. Our families came over to our house for lunch afterwards. It turned out to be quite a wonderful day!
(p.s. we missed our sisters Jamie and Jenn and their families.)

I love this boy so much.
I think about his birthday, and how he almost didn't make it here. I am so grateful that he did.
He is our little angel:)
I just love being his mom.
