Merry Christmas Friends!

Brady's first Christmas at the firehouse!

On this Christmas Eve Eve, here is our 15 week old son on his first shoulder ride -- at 17 pounds this is possible. He was even holding on himself to daddy's hair.

So there is a barber shop in town where lots of famous men get their hair cut. It's called 'Members Only'. My brother had the privilege of getting his face shaved their once during his battle with cancer--he said he'd never had a closer shave. Anyway, they decorate the front of the shop as a gingerbread house at Christmas time and here is Brady hanging out in front of it.

Fall on our street is awfully pretty!

Brady is getting to be more and more fun. He's sleeping longer at night and smiling and cooing and talking....and even trying to sit up.

Brady got to see dolphins...














and go swimming for the first time.

Matty was such a good poser!

Two months is too long without Matty. This is a picture from Sydney's 2nd birthday. He was such a good daddy!

Daddy's on a 6 day, that means lots of play time for the little bug!

Our little chunker is almost as big as Tessa...

Father and son.

Oh Uncle Matty would be so proud!!

Thanks Holly!!

All within 5 minutes...this little sleepy head went from zzzz's to smiles!!!

Cute cute cute!














It wasn't always love but that's what we report....

Silly nuts!!

Brayden was not happy as spidey...but Sydney LOVED being Aerial.

We are taking a vote -- who does this guy look like??



















Bundled up for Seattle winter...

Pretty fun for buddies since junior high to have their sons meet.

My adorable neice.
