For thanksgiving we went to my mom's house to have one of her good old fashioned thanksgiving dinners. Man, is my family getting big. A house full of toddlers is a lot of work. For one of the activities we got all the kids together and made turkeys out of oreos. Porter had no interest in making the turkey's, but he did have a high level of interest in eating the cookies. Porter loves cookie monster( he doesn't even watch sesame street but he definitely knows who cookie monster is) probably because he loves cookies so much.

and then we had kids....who do you think they look like?













I am going to give Justin a published version of our blog for Christmas, and I wanted to highlight him in this last post. but what I realized was that since we have had kids I no longer take pictures of us and focus my amazing photography skills on our kids. So, I am putting a few photos of us on this post from before we had kids and before we had the blog, a time when I actually took pictures of us.

Coleman 3 months

Man, time is flying by! Little Coleman is growing up in a flash. Porter loves his little brother and tries to kiss him all of the time; he also enjoys pushing Coleman in the swing, rolling him on the floor, and shoving the binkie in his mouth as Justin and I say "soft". Coleman is such a good baby!!!!! He sleeps really well, about 8 hours straight through the night, he smiles all of the time, and loves running through the air while lying down. I just hope he stays so happy as he grows up.

Happy Halloween

We had a really good time for Halloween, and Porter even braved the weather to go trick or treating. He would go to the doors and yell "trick or treat" but then instead of taking a treat he would steal a treat from one of the other kids around him. Heather, the amateur photographer, is practicing for class and will give me many more photos of gardner village and halloween .

Coleman baby pics

We had some pictures taken of Coleman taken when he was about three weeks old. I really liked the photographer, Nickell, but Coleman was very naughty! So I am glad that at least some of the pictures turned out. I love my little babes, they are just the handsomest little men ever!

Life sure has been busy around my house with a teething toddler who was banned from all binki's, a beautiful sleepless night babe, and a new puppy. That's right we decided to add to all of our confusion and add a puppy to the mix. Her name is Lola, and boy does she have energy. She does keep Porter some what occupied, so I am grateful for that. She is half Vizsla and half Pointer, and Porter's new best friend!

Well it has been a long time since i have posted. (the last two posts on the blog were put on by Justin.) Anyways, we have a new addition to our family, Coleman Judd. He is a wonderful baby and Porter is adjusting well. We are so grateful that everything went well for Coleman and myself.
