We're home!

We just pulled in from a 6 day-4 state tour celebrating Christmas. We will go into much more detail and post lots of pictures later. We saw Nana, Grandad, Aunt Courtney, Uncle Todd, Uncle Stephen and Pop-Pop in Virginia, spent Christmas Eve at Home in MD with Piccadilly and Ty (our Cats) and then went to PA and WV and saw Grandma, Grandpap, Aunt Heidi, Dave, Great Aunt Helen and Great Uncle Bill and we even got to meet both of our Great Grandpaps (Grandma and Grandpap's Dadas). We have tons of pictures but first we have to go unpack all of our toys. Hopefully tomorrow Mommy will show us how to unload pictures off of her new camera (Santa brought her a new one cause he heard she broke her last one on Thanksgiving).

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Hope everyone is having a very Merry Christmas! If this is your first time visiting our blog because you got our holiday card than please check out our older posts to see what we have been up to. We are going to post a year in review post in a few days and will include what Mommy and Daddy are up to as well. For now though we are going to go play w ith our new toys!


MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just a quick update

First off we just want to say that we are less than 48 hours to Christmas.. however supposed there is word that we could start receiving gifts tomorrow!


So last night was not fun... to start with... Mommy didn't play with us much yesterday, she was in the kitchen the whole day baking. Being the mean Mommy that she is, she didn't give us one bite of what she was making. She said something about having eggs and peanuts in them. Whatever. Maybe Nana or Grandma will give us something later this week. So after Mommy finished baking she was running around cleaning up the house, we still weren't happy with her, so we have her a hard time. Well now we know why she was so busy. Aunt Katie, Uncle Ben and Aunt Katie's sister came to visit us for dinner. OMG We had so much fun!!!!!!!! We didn't go to bed till 7:30! We were party animals.

Well lots to do to get ready for Christmas. If we don't get a chance to update before than. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!!!

Not much new

Things have been pretty normal around here... nothing new to report.... well... except Nate has been pooping like a champ today, however his butt is red again. Hopefully things will finally clear up and his but will be back to normal. We are both so excited about Christmas... though we have no idea what is coming, we can just feel the magic in the air... well we would if we went outside, but its been cold and yucky and Mommy doesn't do cold and yucky. Really we just wanted to post some pictures Mommy took of us the other day.. since she hasn't posted recent pictures in a while. We are going to have a busy week next week, lots of people to see, things to eat, gifts to open, toys to ignore so we can play with tissue paper and boxes, you know the drill. Enjoy the pictures and Happy Friday everyone!!!

Alex is all smiles

Just because its closed doesn't mean I can't play with it still!

Blast from the past time

So we had an awesome weekend. Mommy and Daddy went on vacation.. without us. They went to the Ritz Carlton of Fort Lauderdale for a long weekend away. We bet they missed us the whole time and had absolutely no fun whatsoever. While they were gone we stayed at our own fancy hotel, Hotel Nana and Grandad's. Everyone came to visit. Uncle Todd, Aunt Courtney and her HUGE belly came over for dinner on Friday and Uncle Stephen came home from college for Christmas Break on Saturday. We saw cats and a dog. We ate like champs. We took nice long naps. Overall a great weekend away and a nice break from Mommy and Daddy.

We got home yesterday afternoon and hung out with Mommy and Daddy. Alex stood up for about 15 seconds on his own, not hanging on to anything. Mommy wants him standing completely on his own by Christmas... maybe even taking a few steps before New Years. We will see, Alex likes to do thing in his own time.

Mommy found some old photos of us from over the summer on the big camera she never uses but brought with her and Daddy to Florida since she broke the smaller new camera. So here are some cute pictures of us from July/August.

Nate and his favorite Monkey!

Mama and Alex

here we go again...again

So um..... we are sick again.... still... We went to see nurse Jessica at the doctors office. We are back on nebulizers. We have been running fevers all weekend, including runny noses, coughs, and Nate has an ear infection. We are also on antibiotics and Tylenol. We go back to visit Nurse Jessica on Wed to see if we are getting better.

Grandma came in on Friday for the weekend (Grandpap stayed home sick) and she decided to stay till tomorrow morning to help out with us.

Even though we are sick events still happen. Alex was standing hanging on to baby jail and Mommy and Daddy went "YAY! *clap clap clap*" so Alex let go ed of the gate and clapped while standing.... before losing his balance and falling down. Nate has some news too... however his is not great. Nate was getting ready for a bath and was hanging on to the tub. Daddy bumped him on accident and Nate fell forward and hit his head on the edge of the tub and got a small cut and was bleeding (no one knows how he cut himself on a smooth tub). Luckily no ER run was necessary.

Thats all for now! Hopefully we will feel better soon!

It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas!!!!!!!

So we know we haven't posted since Thanksgiving... but it's only been a week and we are busy little boys.... granted we have just been playing and napping.... it's hard work being this cute :) Things haven't been all roses anyways. We both have small colds.... we know who we got them from.... and they know who they are too, luckily right now its just a small cough and a runny nose... for now! Nate also has apparently been traumatized by his diaper rash. up until yesterday he was squeezing his butt and not wanting to poop for fear of what it was when he had a terrible butt rash a few weeks ago. The good news is since yesterday he has kept the poop coming continuously... the bad news..... he is starting to get a new ugly looking diaper rash... so its back in the bath tubs for long baking soda baths and tons of nystatin and butt paste. See... it is rough to be... 20 MONTHS TODAY!!!!!!!! Where is the time going?!?!? We will be 2 years old in 4 months! No big party this year for us, there is a lot going on this spring and Mommy and Daddy won't have the time to. Some of the things we can't talk about yet.. however there is one big thing that we are so excited to announce........





NO we are not going to be big brothers (Mommy has her hands full as is with the two of us) AUNT COURTNEY IS PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!! We are going to have a cousin! Don't know if it will be a boy or girl yet but we do know that there is only one! We are going to have so much fun teaching him/her all the tricks to being a baby... like throwing up right after you get clean clothes on, pooping right after a diaper change... waking up in the middle of the night for no reason what so ever.. .fun stuff like that.

Well we have to eat dinner and get ready for bed. Just had to spread the exciting news... and the not so good news as well.
