Family Fun in December
December has been a fun and busy month. Marie and Joe and baby Max came in town for the holidays....5 whole weeks in Utah!!! Marie came in a week early with Max to make my Grandma Maxine's funeral. They stayed with us until Joe arrived and it was so fun! You just don't get to spend from morning til night with a new mom and baby, so it was a special experience for us to share so much time with them and be part of their routine. Max is amazing and we love him so much. They are still in town and we've spent a lot of time together with my family. It just feels right to have Joe, Marie and Max around! :) Sam learned a lot from Max while they stayed at our house. Max is much more vocal and active and Sam really stepped it up a notch in those departments once Max showed him the ropes.
Simon's back went out again :( he has to be confined for 8 weeks, which he hates, but he is already doing a lot better. What a fighter!!! We love you Simon!
Sam is growing like a weed and such a mellow, happy, smiley baby. He is holding his head up now. A few weeks ago Stu did a raspberry on his belly and it opened the laughter and smile gates. Ever since then he has been smiling like crazy. His whole life, all he knew was concern......until now!!!! :) And he LOVES his Daddy!! He breaks into the biggest grin whenever Stu talks to him. Maybe because Stu showed him how to laugh :)
Burke is repeating everything we say. Guess I can't be a swear bear anymore. wink-wink ;) He is the best big brother ever and loves to play with motorcycles, balls and ride his new bike. We think he is the cutest little guy ever!
We raked up 70 bags of leaves this year. yep, you read that right...70!!!
Sam being adorable.
We had a triple date at our house with Abe and Vanessa, Joe and Marie, and Stu and I. Of course all the kids were there too. We watched Louie C.K.'s new comedy stand up.... awesome!
Baby Max. The most adorable thing ever!
Sam smiling again. His jowls continue to grow on a daily basis.
Mom and Burke chillin' on the couch.
Dad and the boys playing around. I am pretty sure Sam sees something that no one else can see. Check out the look on his face. :)
Christmas Eve dinner at my Mom's house.
The whole family was there!
Christmas morning. My favorite decorations on the tree this year are the hand prints of Burke and Sam's hands. So cute!

Dad and Burke putting Burke's new pedal-less bike together. Burke was in awe of the whole process and we can't get him off of it.
I took about 10 pictures of the boys on the couch and this was the best of the bunch. Burke wouldn't stop making funny faces and sliding down the couch. :)
