I can't believe I am posting this...

So here is the Christmas event of the year... We attended a Christmas party last weekend where there was a White Elephant gift exchange. The above picture is what Eric received. As you can tell by the facial expression everyone thought it was pretty funny, but then things got worse (at least for me)...
Eric decided to put them on over his clothes (hence the bony hips in the picture). Oh my, oh my what a test of my love! But you can tell it sure was worth a good laugh!

And yes after my flaming red cheeks of embarrassment returned to their normal color I did in fact pose with my crazy husband. As you can tell he is very proud of himself. No one had the heart to tell him they were actually a women's size L.
The good news... they haven't been worn since! Thank goodness!!! All I can say is watch out if you invite us to a White Elephant gift exchange next year. Whoever gets them we DO expect you to wear them!!!

My Little Ham...

Josiah has figured out what the camera means and likes to turn on the charm!

This is Josiah's idea of posing. He wrinkles his nose and squats down. May need to work on that but it's a start!
Josiah trying to keep busy without his dear friend Addison. He found these pom poms in my craft bucket and was ecstatic to see all the tiny "balls."

It's a boy!

This is the baby's head. He's definitely mine...his mouth is open!

The baby is laying on his stomach. This is a picture of his head and spine.
Now to think of a name....any ideas???????

Let it snow! Let it snow!

Josiah's first impression of snow!

Things did start looking up...as long as he was on the sidewalk.


Following his best friend Addison.



Getting a little braver!


Time to go in! See ya later!
