Christmas Time

Photos from our holiday week.

Posing and not tackling each other (Not an easy feat)

Sam was a shepherd in our church Christmas program

Max very pleased with his Dream Lite from Santa

...but we think he loved his pirate ship from Grandma & Grandpa more

Sam received so many Lego sets this year, even his "Dream Present", the Lego Police Station

The New Avengers! Inconceivable Hulk, Micro America and Iron Kid.

Happy Birthday Sam!

Sam had his first birthday party with his school friends and cousins. They had some fun in the gymnastics room at the YMCA, where they did tumbling, an obstacle course and played on much of the other equipment.

Then we spent the afternoon with the rest of our family at the house. If you can't tell from the photos, everything was Lego themed and yes, he received lots of Legos too.

Done with Diapers!

The day I went in the basement and saw the Diaper Genie and the wipe warmer open and EMPTY, was the day I realized I wouldn't have to change another diaper. Well, none so far, but as of this blog post, Max is done with diapers!

We returned our last jumbo box of unopened diapers and traded up for Pull-Ups last weekend.

Max was the one who started it all. We were originally planning on spending the weekend after Christmas potty training. But instead, he surprised us by asking to sit on the potty, and he hasn't looked back since.
