It's Beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

We've been busy getting ready for Christmas! The boys have been out of school all week and we kept ourselves entertained with play dates, making gingerbread houses, wrapping presents and baking cookies.

I think we are ready for Santa to make his appearance!

Lily: 7 months

Lily's 7 months old now! She can sit up and rolls all around to get where she wants. She's still a great napper during the day and sometimes wakes once during the night. She doesn't have any teeth yet, but loves to try new foods. She is a very talkative baby- especially when other people are trying to talk!

Happy Thanksgiving 2012

We celebrated Thanksgiving with the McDonald family at Grandma's house. Aunt Leigh and Uncle Frank drove down from Alabama and visited for a few days. It was a great holiday and Lily's first Thanksgiving. We have so much to be thankful for! Noah decided to dress up as a pilgrim for the day.

The weather was perfect and we got to enjoy dinner outside at Grandma's house.

Lily enjoyed hanging outside and watching the big kids (and maybe some adults) play baseball and kickball all afternoon!

Aunt Leigh got plenty of quality time with Lily.

Thanks Grandma and Papa for hosting us!

Fall Soccer

We finished up another successful soccer season today. It was Jude's first season and Ben coached his team. It was Noah's first season with referees and keeping score- it was challenging, but fun! It was a little hard juggling both boys games and Lily, but we managed!
