Oops! We did it again....

It's a BOY!


We are so excited to welcome another little guy to the family. Ninja and Gambit are thrilled and keep asking when "brother" can come out. He's healthy, looks great, and is quite handsome already! Stay tuned for his official debut in mid-May.

My Puzzle Boy

Gambit loves puzzles. And he's amazingly good at them for a 3 year old. Much better than his older brother, in fact. He concentrates so hard and I love watching him piece it together.
Precious!

Christmas with Mrs. Mom's family

Wait for it..... Wait for it....

Robot King!
(Which was in the trash within a week because it broke. Mental note for next year, do not buy cheap $5 toys just because you are pinching pennies for your new house)




A little commentary on the following two pictures.

Jules: Mom, this is a Wii game.

Mom: Wii?

Jules: Yes, as in the nintendo system that we don't have.

Mom: What? I thought it was a computer game.

Jules: No mom. It's a Wii game. Which we don't have.

Mom: Well, sorry. Don't open it and I'll take it back to exchange.




Oh wait! You DID get a Wii!! The look on their faces was priceless!


Opening presents takes a lot of concentration to do it right.




Ninja loves his legos! (Mommy does not like cleaning up all the darned lego pieces constantly)
Jules loves her new camera.
Teamwork is key.

Christmas with Mrs. Mom's family....again.

New Shoes!



Do not come between a cranky boy and his stocking loot!

I just love my blue blanket.........

But now I have......

A Snuggie! And it's awesome!


More Christmas Pictures

Buzz's new ride
Waiting to go dig into the stockings

Santa enjoys reading some Sports Illustrated in a non conventional position.

All dressed up to be a Wise Man in the annual family nativity. Hmm...this wise man apparently needs help with his deel* (*a deel is traditional Mongolian garb).

Looking very wise. And a little creepy.


Christmas

We enjoyed a wonderful little Christmas celebration with the Antonio's family on the 23rd. The boys loved opening gifts (who doesn't?) and were very excited about their new treasures.

Zoo Lights

My favorite zoo light display...the nursing Zebra! Haha!

Finally on the train!
We decided to go to zoo lights a few days before Christmas. It was cold, colder, and even colder! But despite the frost, the hour long wait in line for the train, and severe hunger pains, the boys insist it was fun. I on the other hand did not find it as enjoyable. Next year we will definitely be going much earlier in the season as the zoo was a complete madhouse!
