Welcome Home, Foster!

Alex is proud to introduce his baby brother, Foster!

Foster joined us on Thursday, January 22, 2009 at 10:35 a.m., weighing in at 7 pounds 7 ounces!
He is such a sweet little guy and even though he won't let us sleep at night, we couldn't be happier to have him!

Alex loves having a little brother and gives him lots of kisses and love!

We can't wait for everyone to come and meet him soon!

Merry Christmas!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas! We sure did.
Alex was so excited this year. He left cookies and milk for Santa. (well he drank the milk and then had to leave a second glass... but still!)

He woke up early and was yelling for us to come get him so he could see Santa. Then he ran into the kitchen to see if the cookies were gone. And he had a blast opening gifts! The only problem was convincing him not to open everyone's gifts.

It was a fun day for all of us!

We're still here!

Sorry we haven't updated in over a month. We're still here, though!
Everything is going great!
Alex is growing so much and is talking even more. It is unreal.
The pregnancy is going great and in just about 6.5 weeks we will be bringing our little guy home! It is hard to believe how fast time is flying by.

Alex has been sleeping in his big boy room since we got back from Arkansas. (Thanks Grandma and PopPop for the awesome ceiling fan!) We are getting everything ready for the baby, and it makes it so much easier to have the nursery empty for him.

Oh, and Alex will only refer to himself as Big Boy now. He still answers to Alex, though! :-)

Arkansas!

We had a great time in Arkansas visiting with Grammo and PopPop! So many adventures.... Alex rode on a boat for the first time, climbed on a real train, saw Smokey the Bear, and even rode an airplane. And he loved every minute of it.

On our last day there we find an old jail built in 1928.

It was sad to say goodbye and come home, but we are definitely looking forward to visiting again soon!

Just Some Fun Pics!

Here is Alex as a scary dinosaur! The second picture is his "scary face!"

And here he is braving the big boy bike!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween from Tigger! Tigger and Scooby did some serious trick-or-treating!
He was pretty wiped out by the end of the night!

Pumpkins for our little pumpkin...

We went to a fall festival over the weekend and Alex loved the pumpkin patch!

He also got to sit in a firetruck! What a big boy.
