Owen the Drummer

Owen was very inspired by our church's Christmas program's rendition of "Drummer Boy," so we got him a drum set for Christmas. He spends a lot of time on his "music" every day. Attire is optional....

Sasha and Owen

I was horrible about taking pictures over Christmas. :( Eli got very sick with bronchiolitis/RSV, which occupied much of our time and almost all of our energy. He is feeling much better now. We had a lot of fun in Colorado with our family. I did manage to take these pictures of Owen and Sasha.

Bob the Builder

All three of my brown-eyed boys like watching Bob the Builder on the computer. I thought this was so cute of all of them together.

Rice Cereal

Eli started solids on December 16. He really likes rice cereal. As you can see, our wooden high chair is very slippery. He is sitting up now, though, and is so excited about it.

Gingerbread House

Owen likes construction so we thought he would enjoy "constructing" a gingerbread house for Christmas. He did enjoy it, but I think he liked the candy more.

Snow in San Antonio!

This is a little old, but the holidays have put me a little behind. It snowed in the Texas Hill Country! Owen didn't remember his first snow, so we took him out to see it. He was a little worried about it, so we put some in a cup for him to eat. He likes it now.

New York, NY!

We had another awesome vacation opportunity with Jerrod's job. Eli and I joined Jerrod in New York City this past weekend. (Thanks to Jeanne, Robin, Karen and Joey, and Kyle and Amy for watching Owen! He had so much fun with his GiGi, his friends, his aunts and uncles, and his cousins.) It was such a fun time of year to be in New York with all of the Christmas lights and festivities. We did a lot of walking and it was pretty cold. Eli stayed bundled up in the stroller as you can see. Now he wants to take all of his naps bundled up in his stroller and cruising the streets of NYC. He got so much attention from waiters at restaurants and people on the streets. I think he may have enjoyed being an only child for a few days. :)
