Celebrations

Santa came to visit us on a gator, with the Arlington Fire Department (the boys are in T-shirts on Dec. 21!)

Cooper collecting his candy cane

Sam eating the wrapper off of his candy cane

Mom celebrated a b-day with her favorite boys

We hit up some Zoo Lights

And Grandma and Grandpa came to celebrate Christmas with us.  We hit up the plane museum at Dulles airport first

We were pretty happy to have them here!

The boys had a GREAT Christmas!

Coop was very slow opening his gifts

but pretty happy with the results!

Sam, just happy to be here.

He can see you, they have night vision

Sam opened gifts a little quicker

We had a great December!

Lately

Dadda is home, we are all just a little excited and do not want to let him go

EVER!!!!

We had our first snow of the season, and tried to throw snow balls at momma through the door!

Seriously?!?!  Ready for any kind of winter weather...

Mom and Coop know about selfies

More snow and our neighbors box turned sled

Brother Bears just hangin' out

And some ice skating.  A little more work for Mom and Dad than planned as we pretty must had to keep Sam upright the whole time, but boy, they had fun!

Lots of fun!

The penguins helped.

And Dad found the way to Sammy's heart, a sprinkled donut from DD!

Our Sammy turns 2!

It was Sammy's 2nd birthday on November 28...we started the morning out right!

Did that say Share on the box mom?  Come on, they are kidding, right?!?!

Our 2 year old boy

We spent the day doing all of the things that Sammy loves.  He loves to "make a cookie" with momma

Opened up a new Thomas the Tank Engine toy

Ate some yummy cake

With his BFF, Brother Bear

Went to check out some model trains at the Botanic Gardens

And went bowling!

Uh huh, all in a days work my friends

Happy Birthday to Sammy, you truly complete our family.  We love you little man!
