Christmas Pajama's

Thanks to Nana, they all have matching Christmas pajama's!! She put all of them in their pajama's the other day. I was going to wait and get their picture in front of the tree, but how could I resist?? They all looked soooooo cute. As most of you know, it is next to impossible to get all kids to look at the same time when you are taking their picture. We tried the best we could, but did not succeed in as many pictures as I had hoped. So, here are a bunch of pictures, and if you put them all together you might find one good picture...maybe.

Random Pictures

Here are a few pictures from the other day. Alyssa is wearing a gap outfit with shoes to match, Nickolas had the exact same outfit in blue when he was a baby! We love stuff that matches. (you probably already know that) Nickolas loves house shoes these days. He wears them all day and would wear them to sleep if we would let him. He is wearing his doggie house shoes in these pictures. We showed him some car house shoes in the sale paper. He wanted them so bad! He tried to pick up the shoes off the page. It was very pitiful, he cried because he couldn't get them. So of course, Tiffany and I went straight to JC Penny's the day after thanksgiving to get them. We gave them to him and he loved them. They look very cute on him.

Thanksgiving Traditions

Every thanksgiving after dinner we look through the sale paper to see if there is anything worth fighting for the next day. This is Alyssa's first thanksgiving and we wanted to be sure to include her in our tradition. Hey, it's never too early to start training.

Alyssa Playing

I have never posted a video, so not sure how it is going to work out! I took some video of Alyssa playing today with my new video camera. I fought the crowds at Target today to get it. So, if all goes well, I should be able to post more videos in the future.

Ring Pop & Big Brother/Little Sister

Nana bought Nickolas a Ring Pop sucker. He loved it!!!! He loves to give you a bite of anything that he is eating, so he gave the sucker to Jason for a bite....when Jason acted like he was leaving with the sucker, Nickolas was NOT happy. Of course Jason wasn't going to take his sucker, he gave it back and Nickolas happily waved bye to Jason..after he realized his sucker was safe. When Tiffany brought them over Nickolas had on a Big Brother shirt and Alyssa had on a Little Sister shirt, so I snapped a few pictures. Nickolas was not excited about the photo shoot, but we managed.

4 Months Old

Alyssa turned 4 months on the 21st. Can't believe she is already 4 months old!! She loves to look at everything. She is really alert and wants to be the center of attention. She loves it when someone talks to her. She can be crying or a little fussy and all you have to do is start talking to her and she smiles! It is so cute. She is 15lbs 3oz now! She has stayed pretty healthy so far, which we are very thankful for. Nickolas is starting to like her more..ha, what I mean is he is starting to give her his blanket instead of taking it away; he likes to go up to her and hug or kiss her. She notices him and smiles when he talks to her. Nickolas also likes to give her everything, his cup, cheerios, toys, etc. Tiffany has to keep a close eye on him! She loves to chew on her hands!! And because of this, she has very cold hands all the time. Alyssa is such a joy and we are very blessed to have her.

I just wanted to see what she looked like in the high chair. Just what I thought, she looks pretty cute in there!

Waking up at Aunt Tonya's

Last week Nickolas and Alyssa spent the night. Nickolas has to go see Alyssa first thing when he wakes up. He wants to hug her and say hi. Here are a few pictures from when they woke up. Nickolas sat in Alyssa's bumbo seat next to her crib. Then he decided he wanted to give her his blanket. Then he decided he wanted to get in the crib. I soon found out it was because he wanted to play with the mobile on the crib. Silly me to think it was because Alyssa was in there! Oh well!
