Pre- Christmas

Decorating the tree with dad. I was very nervous about putting up the tree, but Colin and Savannah have left it alone!
Colin and his 2nd cousins at a baby shower for Colette. The other moms thought they should get cupcakes and I caved. Colin just licked the frosting and said, "mmmmm"!

Colin's first fort!

The family has been down with the flu this week. Colin had it for the first time on Monday, then Matt got it and then I had the weakest version on Thursday. Luckily it seems to pass quickly and we got it out of our system before Christmas.

Colin Meets Claire

While we were in Minnesota we went to see the Boylan's.http://art-angie-boylan.blogspot.com/ Angie took some great pictures of Colin and Claire together. Give them another year to even realize the other exists! Colin really enjoyed checking out all of Claire's toys and books. Thanks for the photos Angie!!!

Thanksgiving Weekend

Colin enjoyed Thanksgiving - tasting the turkey leg!
Colin and Matt at St John's

Colin decided that the crayon tasted better than the lemon! He does like lemons though

We went to Minnesota for Thanksgiving. Colin was very busy and had so much fun with his grandparents and Aunt Melissa. We went to St. John's while we were there for Colin's first college visit. We had a great time.

Morning at Home

This morning Colin and I stayed home and hung out. He is getting some new teeth and trying to get over a cold but he was still in a great mood. Here is what our morning consisted of.

Colin rocked Curious George while watching ELMO~
Colin helped me vacuum. Mainly he would hold the cord so I couldn't go any farther and laugh. In this picture he is turning it on, I wish I could have taken a picture 2 seconds later when he jumped against the wall because it scared him.

Savannah was peacefully sleeping on her rug when Colin came in with his airplane spinning in her face. She didn't stay there for very long.

Being Adorable - then off to bed.

Weekend Activities

Matt and I went to the Husker game on Saturday. They sure are fun and always amazing to see the die hard fans there. On Sunday Colin and I went to visit the newest members of the Hughes family. My brother Mark's dogs had puppies - 10 pure bread labs if anyone is interested in a puppy for a Christmas gift.

Enjoy the pics!
