Carter's First Steps

We caught this on video. Carter is really starting to get the hang of it!!!

Free Ride

If Carter is offering free rides...Bryson is accepting!

2009 Already?!

It's hard to believe it's already 2009! The boys will be turning one this month and the new year is starting out great!


Carter loves to show off is brut strength by pushing and pulling anything he can get his hands on!























































Chillin' with Aunt Kimmy

Babies' First Christmas

Carter & Bryson had a good first Christmas! They had much more fun playing with the wrapping paper than anything else. Next year they will understand it more, but this year was nice.

Christmas Eve 2008

Christmas Eve is here and we are getting ready for Santa Claus to visit! As you can see Santa's elves are hard at work (or hard at play) in preparation for the holiday. Merry Christmas everyone!!

Celebrating Christmas with our grand-neighbors, Jeff & Judy:

Playing with our dog friend, Melanie, and getting LOTS of Christmas kisses:

Christmas is Coming

Hard to believe that Christmas is almost here! The boys will be 11 months old in a few days and they continue to amaze us each day. We enjoy San Diego and the wonderful weather we have. Although sometimes you just need to dress up like an elf (see below). Happy Holidays everyone!

Its cold here (probably 55 degrees) I need to put on my bomber jacket. Thanks Aunt Karen





















I will be at Santa's workshop later. Doesn't Aunt Betty have good taste in hats?

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a great time over our Thanksgiving break! We were able to spend two weeks in Arizona over the holiday and see lots of friends and family. The boys have grown so much and have new developments almost every day!! They have both started to get their first teeth....interestingly enough, they both got their top left tooth in first. They are both walking along furniture with ease. Bryson has learned to climb too well. Carter has learned how to pull large items, such as stools and large toys. They are both going to be walking before we know it. Yikes! They are quick on all fours, we hate to see how fast they will be on two feet.

Enjoy this collection of photos from the last two weeks!
