Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.

Playing with toys wears James out?

James loved Cali (the dog) when we were in Texas. He even got to get a ride for a few seconds. He would squeal when she would get close though. He loved it!

James and his Christmas toy. He loves this, he pushes it all over the house.

Christmas morning...about 6:45 AM. I think James was tired....maybe Trevor too.

Christmas morning picture. James has visions of sugar plums dancing in his head in this picture...or maybe it was visions of Cali.

Amy loves this picture.

Katy and Bryson.

James and Grammy

One day James was playing in our pantry and found an open bag, it was soon an empty bag and a fun game for a few minutes. See the video at the end of the blog--you'll see what I mean.

Who knew a high chair could be so comfortable?

James with Santa Claus at the mall.

1st taste of chocolate....I think he likes it!

Shopping With James

We went shopping the other day and James wanted to push the cart for a little while. With a little steering help from Trevor, he pushed for a while.

Snow, Snow, Snow!

We had a ton on snow up here and so one day Amy and I were building a snow fort. James was sleeping when we started, but once he woke up, we dressed him up to join in the fun! He thought the snow was pretty tasty.

Some people are really good at writing stuff, I'm really good at posting pictures....

James playing with Dad's scout hat

We put James' pants on his head, he thought it was pretty funny. James attempting to fill up his diaper....

can you see the concentration? I like FOOD!

James and Kyler playing together or by each other. They're buddies, they are starting to acknowledge each other's presence.

This is James attacking the camera. He loves it!

Happy Birthday Brothers!

This is the month of birthdays for my brothers, well all of them except 1, so that is 4 November birthdays. Yikes.....I don't know if my brothers look at this ever, but if they do...

November 5 Happy Birthday Ryan!

November 8 Happy Birthday Brigham!

November 13 Happy Birthday Bryson!

November 24 Happy Birthday Braden!

What a busy month of singing Happy Birthday and if you have ever heard us all sing Happy Birthday, one more birthday this month might ruin our BEEAUUUTIFUL voices. We tried out for talent show as a group and they turned us down. I think it was something to do with the fact that we didn't sing the words together or you might not really know what we were singing. We love it though because you can hear all of our voices through the whole song, if you can follow the up and down of it all. One of the best things about birthdays is getting the "phone call" from everyone. It's awesome!

more pictures!

James loves playing in the leaves and we had a ton of them...

He also likes tomatoes, he squishes the juice and seeds into his mouth.

Here we are at a football game. He was wide eyed for most of it and slept for the other part of it.

fun in the high chair!
