Saying goodbyes

 This morning we had to say goodbye to Uncle Moose and all of the rest of our family in TN. It was sad to leave but we sure had an incredible 2 weeks.

 It was so special to see you and your Uncle Moose bond during this time.... I think it was that smile that wrapped him in :)

 He is DEFINITELY going to miss you... even with your very often screaming ha.

And to prove my point.. this is the picture I snapped of him at breakfast. Wearing earphones. Because YOU yell and scream the majority of time we are sitting at the table eating. Wanting more, not getting the food fast enough, etc.... haha and your poor Uncle couldnt handle it!

I finally got a picture of your 2, no actually FOUR new top teeth coming in!

And that is the way we ended your first year and spent New Years Eve. Bye bye 2011, hello 2012!

You. LOVE. to. eat.

simple as that :)

Touchdown!

 We hung out with Pipper and Cici tonight. You and Pipper are for sure buds. He knows they way to your heart, through feeding you :)

 smiles under that bottle

we did your handprint ornaments for their tree

and you learned to do the motion for TOUCHDOWN!!!!

Early bday for Daddy

 We celebrated an early birthday with some of his friends and their families! These guys, and his best friend from high school Denira, have been very special to him for many years so it was awesome to see them!

 Uncle Milam tried to contain your grumpiness but unfortunately you werent very happy. Have I told you lately how crazy you get at meal times? Whew son you wear us out ha!

 with Emerson and her Mommy Denira

after dinner you had some yummy ice cream... one of the many perks of being the 2nd child is that you get to do everything before you are supposed to!

Relaxation!

 You two silly boys in your new matching glow in the dark pjs! Look how cute your smiles are :)

We had a lazy day today trying to recover from all of the holidays. It was so nice to just hangout and not have any plans. Susu and Diddy continued to spoil us of course :)

Hanging out with Family

Aunt Cara and Uncle Tyler came over to spend the day with us since they were both off! There were so many new toys to play with yall had some fun! Uncle Moose's girlfriend Sarah also joined us for dinner and we had an early bday celebration for Daddy who will be 30 in ONE month!! It was a wonderful to be able to just spend an entire day with family!

Your FIRST Christmas!!

 Griffin gave you the biggest hug when we woke up this morning and was the first to tell you MERRY CHRISTMAS! It is so exciting to have two boys to celebrate with... and ever so special to celebrate Jesus' birthday with family!

 You were still amazed by the singing dog that Mimi and Potts got you and wanted to dance with Daddy.

 Little did you know there was MORE to open. Griffin tried to show you how to open the gifts but you were a bit impatient and werent to happy....

 UNTIL you realized that there was fun toys inside of the packaging!!

 This remote control spider intrigued you

 Our family on Christmas morning

 After a very yummy breakfast from Susu, we got dressed and headed outside for pictures.

 Family pictures in front of the beautiful lake

 Cici and Pipper's was the next stop... and we have two smiling boys in front of the beautiful tree!

Finally getting the hang of unwrapping

You two were THRILLED to have a Mickey who sings the hot dog dance!

After opening all the gifts it was your and Daddy's naptime while Griff and Uncle Ty played

We fixed a yummy dinner and you couldnt WAIT to eat. It took Cici AND Pipper to get you happy :)

Mimi and Potts came to join us and see all the presents that were given.

Cici and Pipper loved having you two there to celebrate with!

And we had a WONDERFUL day celebrating Jesus' birthday

Christmas Eve

 We spent some time with your Granny, cousins, Aunt Leann and Uncle JC. Granny's lap is about to get too small for all of you!

 You are a music fanatic right now and loved your little radio they got you.

 Your cousins wanted to love on you the whole time :)

Hanging out with Uncle JC

Visting with Aunties and Christmas at Mimi and Potts' house!

We got to visit with some of Mommy's best friends, and your Aunties today! Missy, Jessica and JD couldnt get over how big you were. I was shocked that Briggs had caught up with you too!

 Trying to get two babies to look at the same time is difficult ha!

 Best friends and our baby boys!

 Tonight we had our family Christmas at Potts and Mimi's house. It was so much fun to watch you open gifts.

 Your favorite BY FAR was this puppy who talks and sings to you!

It was great to have all of the grandkids and great grandkids together again :)
