Thanksgiving 08

This Thanksgiving we decided to go to Middleton and spend the holiday with my mom and dad. It was a nice opportunity to get out of town for a few days and visit with the family. Although I might venture to say that Summer's favorite part of the holiday is black Friday shopping!

You know those crazy people that you hear about who get into fights and get tazed by Target security?........yeah, that's my wife and my sister Tiffani is usually somewhere in the mix as well. This year it was Summer, Tiffani, my mom and they even drug my little bro Cody into it. As a sidenote I didn't want anything to do with it and as punishment I was left at home with 5 kids (2 infants)!....on my birthday nonetheless.

Anyways, yes there is a good story involved and Summer has since repented of her actions that cold frosty morning. However I won't throw her under the bus right now and I'll let her share the story if she wants to.

As it stands we had a great weekend and we truly are blessed for all that we have. It's always humbling to think how often we receive blessings even when sometimes we fall short on our end and feel like we don't deserve them.

Planning their attack.

Waiting for turkey!

Turkey!

Too much turkey!

Our little turkey!

Hanging out with Uncle Cody.

Just poohed on Uncle Cody.

As much as it looks like it......me and Cody are NOT at the BSU game.

Griffin and I were having a girls night and decided to do face masks... no comments necessary on this post!

Also, if you scroll down a few posts you can see some sample pics she took of the girls a few weeks ago. I'm telling you, this girl rocks!
We are all doing great, Aidan is growing like a weed and is SUCH a good boy! None of us can get enough of his sweet little self!
I hope you all have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving!!!

Tricks and Treats

Really no tricks, just cute pics of the kids on Halloween...

More cuteness...

Sorry I've been SO SLOW to post more pics of Aidan!!! I've been so busy feeding and pumping and cleaning up pee-pee and staring at my handsome boy to do anything else! I really forgot how hard it is to do anything when a new born is in the house. He is doing great and so am I. He has his 2 week check up on Tuesday, so we'll keep you updated with all the scoop and the poop. Literally.

Aidan loves his binky... until he figures out there is NO MILK coming out...

Aidan and Justin were having a chat...

Justin just told Aidan what a circumcision is. And that he was getting one!

So there you go, our handsome man. I will try to be better about updating the blog!

Home Sweet Home

We are all finally home after three long days in the hospital. I'm sure Summer will be blogging about her adventure so I will just note that everyone is healthy and doing well. Here's a few pics to get started.
