Molly Claire’s Room

We have finished Molly’s nursery.  Well, almost.  I would like to get a chair for that empty corner and maybe a few little accessories for her dresser, but other than that, it’s done!

I had my 36 week appointment yesterday.  Baby Molly is doing well.  The dr. estimated that she is currently 7+ pounds and will likely be around 9 pounds when she is born.  She is head down, which is great because two weeks ago she was transverse (lying sideways).  We are getting nervous about her arrival and juggling 3 little ones, but are also very excited!

More ICE!

This morning we decided to take the boys ice skating.  Cole was super excited and a bit let down afterward, I believe.  Reid only made it around the ice once.  He had a pretty difficult time, as expected, and cried as soon as we started.  Cole fell A LOT, but went around the rink a few times.  He kept watching the other other kids skate and saying, “Let’s go away from the wall where it’s easy.”  He seemed to  think that since the other children we skating so well that it must have been easier out there.

 

Reid’s tiny skates!

Grinch ICE!

Brien’s work party this year was at the National Harbor.  We had dinner and then got to see Grinch ICE!  It was very cold (9 degrees!) but we bundled up in the enormous blue parkas they gave us and we survived.  Cole had a blast.  Reid stayed home with Grammy.  It was a bit too late for him.

A little late…again!

 

Merry Christmas!  I actually have a valid excuse this time.  We left the camera at my grandparents and haven’t been able to upload the pictures.  But, here they are! 

Christmas Eve at Grandma & Grandpa’s

Christmas Morning at Our House

Checking to see if Santa came!

Christmas Morning at Grammy & Pop’s

We also visited GiGi and Great Grandmother and Pop-Pop’s house on Christmas, but don’t have any pictures.  It was a very long day for the boys, but they held up pretty well!

It's been a while!

First, we are all moved in and settled at our new house and we LOVE it! We've been here about 3 weeks and the boys are adjusting just fine. The move went very smoothly thanks to the help from lots of great family!

We spent a very nice Thanksgiving at Grandma and Grandpas!


Reid is saying a few words here and there. His favorite is "no" of course. He can also say,
Mama, Dada, go, and bye-bye.

He got his first haircut and did REALLY well. He sat still the entire time!

He is quite the little dancer as well!



Cole is doing well too and enjoying school. Here he is "reading" Twas the Night Before Christmas. Enjoy!



Baby girl is doing well too. Her name will most likely be Molly Claire. She is growing just as she should be and is still expected in early March!

Happy Halloween!

Cole, the fireman, and Reid, the dalmatian, had a great time on Halloween.  Cole went trick or treating with Daddy and came home with a bucket full of treats.  Reid and I stayed home and handed out candy.
