Monkeys and bannanas
You have been enjoying so many foods lately. Last night while the girls and I enjoyed some pizza you enjoyed a whole banana! It was so funny and the girls were getting a kick out of our little monkey. I can not explain the energy among sibblings these days, it is precious, contagious and so special! I have been wanting to take some pics of you in the precious ornament onsie that Tenille got you too. Thank you so much Tenille it is precious!
The Hicks Family has arrived!
...more pictures!
Jer and Ter and the boys got here today and we have had a fabulous time so far. Too bad you have the croup! You are trudging along but we did manage to go out for pizza and play here for a little while. It is hard to tell you are sick even except that horrible cough because other than that you have the same personality as always "my chill baby!" Looking forward to the next few days with your Hicks cousins!....The "next few days" came and went too fast. We had a wonderful time with Jer and Ter! On our second day with the Hickses we enjoyed playing on the trampoline and take-out at Jeff's for dinner followed by some Dirty Santa. We had a wonderful time, the girls fell asleep over there so that we all had a chance to visit adult-style. Sadly we have to back out of our New Years with them as B won't be here but we will see the boys again this weekend and we are already looking forward to it!
First Christmas '08
At Home
What a joy it was having you this year as a new addition for our holiday season. You have been so precious. What a sweet memory I will cherish having you here. You didn't get very many presents from mommy and daddy as you are the third child and we are more realistic now about the needs of an 8 month old :). Nevertheless you did get some camping gear, ha..needs!? Anyway, you enjoyed so many holiday foods, sweet potatoes, spinach (thanks to aunt Dinah), and buiscits (sp) thanks to Mammy, mmmmmm love those buiscits and chocolate gravy! What a wonderful year it has been. Can't wait until next year, you will be 1.5 WOW!
Baby Girl's first Christmas
At the Farm
'08 was your very first Christmas. And what a sweet time it has been with you in our family of five. I love you so much honey. You have been such a good sport through the chaos and fun. You loved spending time at the farm and you enjoyed being around everyone so much. I think you felt the excitement from everyone. Merry Christmas my sweet!
Merry Christmas

A very vintage Christmas this year!
Let it snow
Your daddy is pretty creative. I think, his daddy was pretty creative too. This was during yesterday's snow fall.
