Incredibly blessed.

I'm so grateful that the holidays are here and I get to spend it with all my boys. I'm looking forward to seeing Robert really appreciate all the joys of the Christmas season this year. He's old enough to know what's going on without being old enough to be preoccupied with what toys he will get. I love that this year, he knows who baby Jesus is and we can start explaning the real meaning of Christmas to him. Nicholas is a joy as well. He is an amazingly smiley baby. He smiles all the time with a dimpled grin that melts hearts wherever we go. He is really "talking" a lot now. He makes the silliest sounds and curls his mouth up in the strangest ways trying to imitate speech.
Robert is entertaining us with his vivid imagination lately. We have heard numerous adventures of a garbage motor home with pink stripes like a zebra. Oh, and it had five eyes and a piece of bread in its mouth. Yesterday he looked in the bushes at church on the way to the car and said "I've never seen a tiger in these bushes before." He is really into anything to do with spaceships and rockets. Anything can be a space ship for him and he loves counting down and blasting off.

These are just a few of the hundreads of pictures I took trying to get a respectable Christmas card picture. It is SO much harder with two!



This boy has impossibly blue eyes.


Just get used to it Nicholas. Your brother is a goofy guy!

When did my baby grow up and get so handsome? He looks a lot like pictures we have of his granddaddy at his age. Big Robert was quite the heartbreaker (there was even a Robert George fan club at my parents church when they were growing up-of course my dad did not know about it.) This picture makes me think little Robert will be a heartbreaker too.

Not to mention this handsome guy.

Is there anything sweeter than a sleeping baby?


I mean, really!

Robert catches up on his reading after comandeering the Bumbo seat.
