The Christmas Tree

On Saturday, we finally got around to actually putting some ornaments on our Christmas tree.  We had had the tree for a couple weeks and Kevin had nicely put the lights up, but we hadn't gotten around to putting up the ornaments.  So finally on Saturday we got around to getting them all up.  The kiddos had a lot of fun.  Gavin especially loved putting up all of Kevin's baseball ornaments from growing up.







And here is our finished tree.  Now we just need some presents to cover up that ugly grey blanket!

Baby Hadley's first week of life seen from my phone!

Proud Daddy!

Audra "OH" so excited to see her little sister.


On our way home from the hospital.  The carseat makes her look quite small.
Snuggles with Auntie Mandy!
Love the hair!  Neither Audra or Gavin had any hair, Audra is still working on getting her hair.
Gavin getting in his snuggles with Hadley.  He is very protective of his little sister already and very concerned every time she makes a noise.  "Mom you need to check baby Haddie", is a very common phrase these days.




Hadley's had her first bath!  Needless to say, she did not enjoy it very much.
Audra getting her time to hold the baby.

Hadley is wearing the outfit that both my sister and I wore home from the hospital.  It barely fit her.




And somehow, this is the only picture of I have a Nana with baby Hadley.  We didn't take too many real pictures on my camera since being home yet.  But thank you to both of our moms for all your help.  They both came to help with the kiddos and to meet Hadley, and it was an amazing.  Thank you again so much.  We love you both!

As most of you know we have been a little busy the last couple weeks, so I'm a little behind on our weekly phone pictures.  So lets catch up.  Here's what we've been up to . . .
Our little fuzz head!
Gavin working on some projects.
Eating Sprinkles cupcakes!  So yummy!


Playing hide and seek in my, what were, laundry piles.
Who knew dirty laundry could be quite so much fun!
Gavin has had many breakdowns in every store we enter lately in anticipation of his upcoming birthday and Christmas.
Enjoying fun times with Daddy.
The crazy haired girl!


On Thanksgiving Kevin played in a Turkey Bowl with some of our friends from church, so the kiddos and I went to watch.  And of course the Arnold's were there, so the kiddos were very happy.
Audra & Broden taking in the game.

Then Audra helped Auntie Mandy makes some pies for all the festivities.


We then spent some time paroozing the ads.  This was Gavin's most favortie activity of the holiday weekend.  He picked out every toy he wants for his birthday and Christmas and was sure to let everyone know!
As well as he has been practicing his "Rock Power".  The other day he came in my bathroom and was asking me to do something.  I said something about him wrestling with daddy, and he said, "No, I'm rocking out!"
And now I think we are caught up with phone pictures until the birth of Baby Hadley, so that will be tomorrow!
