Elliot Coos

Our sweet Elliot has started cooing.  He is especially chatty in the morning, during diaper changes, and anytime his Daddy is around.  Steven and I (who can barely function in the morning without caffeine) are at a loss for how this little one can love his mornings so.  At any rate, the boy is in heaven if he is naked on his changing table first thing in the morning talking to his Daddy.  This video was during some quality Daddy time before bed.

Christmas Fun: Christmas Day and Beyond

After several days of pre-game excitement, Alexander actually slept in Christmas morning until about 8:30.  Here he comes to check out what Santa brought him.

He must've been a good boy this year because Santa brought him just what he asked for: a trumpet, police officer costume, and fire station play set.

After Christmas, it was off to Auburn for some Locy family Christmas fun.

Steven must've been good this year too, because he got just what he wanted for Christmas... a ukulele.  

Oh boy!  Watch out!  Thank goodness this stays at Grandma and Grandpa's.

This little guy keeps changing before my eyes.  He is still my little snuggle bug for now.  

Playful brothers

Christmas Fun: Pre-game through Christmas Eve

We had a whirlwind of a holiday season this year.  We stayed BUSY with our sweet newborn and all of Alexander's Christmas excitement.  Alexander is still singing Christmas carols and talking about Rudolph.  All the festivities are so fun-filled to him now... I don't think he cared much for all those presents.  Here's a glimpse... 

Alexander's Christmas program at preschool... what an angel!

My favorite Christmas craft- his hands were the antlers, and it had a big red pom-pom for Rudolph's nose

Our sweet Elliot slept through most of it.  I don't know what I would do without his baby swing.

Alexander played with this Little People Santa and reindeer toy every day all day long.  Now that Christmas is over, we put it away with the rest of the Christmas items.  He now uses a toy helicopter as his Santa sleigh!

We went to Stone Mountain for Christmas fun with the Gladdens.  Alexander keeps asking me to drive fast like the train at Stone Mountain.

We also met Erin's parents at Callaway Gardens for the Festival of Lights.
