little stud

look who is getting so chunky!

I cannot believe he is almost two months, he is getting more and more personality every day and let me tell you he is very strong-headed (we may be in trouble)

He is getting to such a fun phase, the things I do to get this little man to smile!

Nixon watched his first Superbowl and you can guess who he cheered for......

just like his dad, we thought we would get him started on mt dew a little early.

He is so sweet and we cannot get enough of our little man!

to his lady fans

Oh my goodness we love having this little man around! He is getting bigger and bigger by the second. He LOVES to eat and weighed 9lbs 4oz at his 2 week appointment. He is so much fun and is definitely a daddies boy already (but we could have guessed that)
He already has lots of admirers and even got my sister to book a flight just to come and see him!

This is his new favorite sleeping postion......

This week he lost all his hair on top so now he looks like such an old man, we call him our little benjamin button.

He is still irrestiable though...

We feel so blessed and are loving every second of being parents to this little man.

I surprised Bray one morning and signed him up to skydive

you should have seen his reaction!

i think it was a success!

Adoption

We are actively looking to adopt a little one. We created an adoption blog which explains a little about us, please check it out. Also, you can copy and paste the link to add our button onto your blog to help us pass along the word. Any help would be greatly appreciated. We can't wait for the chance to become parents! Thanks a ton!

that's right folks,

Dear St. George Parade of Homes People,

I am usually one of your biggest fans, and although this year you did manage to keep me entertained, can I ask..What was with you this year?? Where was all of the creativity? What was with the boring walls and blah every day decor? Most importantly where was the Frank Lloyd Wright inspired home?? You let me down this year!

However, I do want to thank you for providing us with houses that we might possibly be able to afford sometime in our lives.

Also, thank you for house #11, just when I was loosing all hope you did give me this beauty, I could have moved right in! But, in all seriousness I do hope that you can redeem yourselves next year!

Love,

your toughest critic

don't worry...

Bray was able to do some manly things and put his christmas presents to good use

the weather was warm warm warm!! I am not happy to be back to snow.

bring on 2010

Every New Years has me thinking about the past year and what I have accomplished, I'll admit that it had me feeling pretty bad for myself thinking about how uneventful I felt 2009 was for me. So this post is more for myself than anyone but as I started looking at our pictures from this past year it made me realize that I am so blessed and that even if I don't feel like I am where I should be in my life I need to enjoy the small and simple moments in life. 2009 was filled with so many fun memories and I am so thankful for them all!
