Merry Christmas 2010!!

We would like to wish you all a happy new year to come and hope that your Christmas was full of love and fun times that you will all remember! We had a wonderful Christmas with the kids even though Jim and I were under the weather for most of it (a quick 24 hour bug). As you can see in the pictures below (just a select few from our fun filled afternoon) the kids had a wonderful Christmas! Caleb was such a big helper for his sister when it came time to open her gifts! Enjoy!!!

Caleb and his battleship game...this may have been when he said, "Dad Is really like Santa!" Jim, "Why is that?" Caleb, "Because he gives you free toys!"

Caleb and his LEGO Wii remote (shhh...I told him he didn't have to share this remote with his friends they could use the other remotes we have).

Olivia has discovered her voice

This is what our days and evenings are full of now that Olivia has discovered her voice. Enjoy!!
Love,

Rolling Rolling Rolling!!!

We knew the day was near and today it happened...Olivia rolled over from her back to her belly for the very first time. Both mommy and daddy got to see her do this and the second time we got her on camera. Then after her bath she did a lot more rolls in mommy and daddy's room. We are so happy to share this wonderful news...below is the video!

I scream...You scream...We all scream for ICE CREAM!!!!

Last night Jim got the wild idea to make ice cream. Just so happened that we still had our Cuisinart Ice Cream maker (never opened) from one of our shower gifts from our wedding. Olivia and I enjoyed watching the boys make some delicious ice cream.

Welcome Baby Olivia!

Wow...it has been a long time since I last blogged...but we have a lot to share with you all. We are now a family of 4. Jim, myself, Caleb and baby Olivia. Olivia came into the world on August 10, 2010 (3 days early) at 2:03 in the afternoon.

Jim and I headed to the hospital around 7-7:30 in the morning and our family slowly arrived throughout the day.
