Quality Time with Grandma Sue and Aunt Annie!

The next day was the 22nd, and Aunt Annie came over to Grandma Sue’s! See this image larger. And guess what, kids? More Christmas! Ian got this cool plane! Nina got a pillow shaped like Brobee from Yo Gabba Gabba! She loves Yo Gabba Gabba, but she calls the show Foofa, because of a character […]

Quality Time with Grandma Sue and the Eaves!

Forgot a couple shots from the 20th, camera put them out of order :-\ Anyway, here’s a lovely shot of Grandma Sue, Ian and Nina at the Christmas Lightwalk thingy. We had a lot of fun, and I even saw something that we pretty much assume will be everywhere next year. (They were a string […]

A Middle-of-the-Gulf-Side-of-Florida Christmas

December 18th, we stopped for gas somewhere in Georgia, and I took a quick picture of our sleeping beauty through the car window, surrounded by presents. December 19th we drove all day. When we arrived at Grandma Sue’s villa, we pretty much went to bed. And that Christmas started first thing the next morning, on […]

An East Michigan Christmas, 2011

The morning of December 17th, we arrived in Southgate the night before, said hello to Grampa Dave and Grandma Marcia, and woke up to a great breakfast! We swung by and picked up Great Grandma Betty and had a great day! *Mmm! Something smells good!* Bacon is one of several things you can give a […]

A Daycare Christmas, 2011

Ian’s Christmas party was the same day that we were to head to Grampa Dave and Gramma Marcia’s house… it was short and sweet. Mommy was there too, but I didn’t get any pictures… :-\ Ian got a book from Charlie in the gift exchange! Ian enjoyed the Christmas party. I know that was a […]

A West Michigan Christmas, 2011

December 15th, and as I mentioned to Ian, Santa and I had worked out a plan where he showed up early, because of all the other things going on in the coming weeks. Also Santa has elves to build many toys, but there are some things that just aren’t packaged for a trip in the […]

The Night(s) Before Christmas…

A couple pretty important notes before we delve into Christmas. FIRST – you’ll notice a lack of the “see this image larger” option on MANY of the photos going forward. Why do this? More room for more little pictures… there’s so many images that are just there to tell a story, that aren’t necessarily fridge-front-gallery […]

Christmas Concert 2011

Video, December 8th Click here to watch a video of the 2011 Christmas concert, but be warned, it is 14 MB! That could be a long download if you have a slow connection, but enjoy! Of note, at the end of the video, there’s a knock-knock joke that we recently saw on a TV show […]

My Apples

Don’t get me wrong, Nina has said things like “MINE” before. And she’s had to say that quite a bit, as you can probably imagine. This video shows Nina going from “Apples” to “My Apples.” It’s a step up in communication that is vital. In the past month-and-a-half, we’ve gone from understanding about 10% of […]

A December With Little or No Snow Begins

December 1st, Seth enjoys a band of sunshine in my office. See this image larger. December 3rd, Nina turns the tables on Mommy and styles her hair! See this image larger. And talking girl-talk, of course! See this image larger. *Oh girl, that man, you need to whip him into shape!* See this image larger. […]
