Happy 2nd Birthday Drew!!!

Drew turned 2 at the end of the month and I can hardly believe it. We took him to Macaroni Grill for a birthday dinner and had a small party with close friends and family the next day.

Drew is VERY into his spaghetti.

A waitress sung Drew Happy Birthday in Italian. Drew was pretty smitten. He giggled and offered her his binkie.

Loving his ice cream desert. He waited like a baby bird mouth agape for every bite.

Merry Christmas!!!

We traveled again up to my parents' house this year. It was relaxing and a lot of fun, despite us all having bad colds. The boys share a room there, and that went pretty well besides some early morning wake ups.

Evan and Drew are starting to get along. Sometimes.

Drew loves strollers. I wish they made some blue ones. Baby boys DO grow up to push their kids in strollers. If someone could start a line of boy colored strollers, they would probably cash in.

Evan's "Like a Bike" It is a bike without pedals so children can learn to ride sans training wheels. Supposedly they learn more quickly to balance.

We made a trip to the Air and Space Museum near Dulles Airport. It was really awesome! I had no idea how many actual air craft they had in the building.

The Enola Gay, very surreal to see it in person.

The Space Shuttle Enterprise! Evan was wearing his light up airplane jacket Grandma E gave him for Christmas. He LOVES it and insisted of course he wear it to the airplane museum.

Family Photos

Here are our annual family photos. In order to save some money we had them taken by "professionals." That is James and I and our combined years of photographic experience, which is pretty substantial! The only variable, the boys cooperating, went pretty well.

Talk to the hand. Drew was mad that I wouldn't let him jump into the pond.
