5 Months & First Food

Anderson ate brown rice cereal for the first time on his five month Birthday. He liked it ok but subsequent feedings have not gone as well; he seems to be tired of it! Elle and Anderson are really enjoying playing together these days. Here are some pictures to prove it! :)

Colorado

Wow - what a week! It was so special to hang out with our family AND celebrate Dads 65th Birthday! What a fun Birthday party! We also got to meet Ezra Henry, the 7th child of the cousins. It was so fun to have all the kids running around together! Here are some pics from our trip.

Winter weeks

It has been a bit since my last update so I wanted to get up a few pics before we left for Colorado! We are going for a week vacation to Boulder for my Dad's 65th Birthday and so the extended family can meet Anderson! We are so excited! Here are a couple of pics of the kids from the last couple of weeks.

Snow Day & National Champs

Atlanta has been shut down since Sunday because of all the snow and ice! Roads, businesses and schools have been closed all week and we all have cabin fever! But it has been a fun week with all the deep white snow and extra time with Dad home! Monday night made our year when Auburn won the National Championship! What a game! Here are snow pics and our two AU fans all dressed up to cheer on the Tigers!

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

We had a wonderful Christmas, first celebrating in Atlanta with the Barfields and then driving to New York for a white Christmas with the Swanson clan. The 14 hour car ride there was successful but the 17 hour return trip was a little draining because of all the traffic! All in all, the kids did great! Check out the pictures from the holidays!

Holiday Fun

What a busy and fun season! Anderson is doing great; he is now 12 weeks old. He is still not sleeping through the night (he gets up between 3:30 and 5 am every morning) so we are tired but he is a very happy and fun baby so we forgive him! :) Elle is so excited about Christmas and all the fun activities and she loves saying that "It is Baby Jesus Birthday Party soon!" She does not like Santa so she gets sad if I bring him up so we leave Santa out of the Christmas conversations! Here are a couple of pics from the last two weeks.

Happy Thanksgiving

It has been a great Thanksgiving holiday despite the family sickness that has been going around to each of us (even Anderson had a runny nose for a couple of days). We have been enjoying the holiday season and we got our tree up and decorated before the calendar flipped to December! Here are some pictures from the last week.
