My First Haircut

Justin got his first haircut tonight from Papa Jim...with Nana helping out too! He was a bit squirmy but did pretty good. The first picture shows Dad handing me Justin's hair...for his scrapbook of course!

I Love My Papa Jim!

The pictures are blurry but the happiness & joy are crystal clear!

Winter Beauty...and Fun too!

Nana, Papa Jim and Michael enjoyed a wonderful walk in this Winter Wonderland. Everything was covered in white...it was beautiful. Nana & Papa took Michael down to the ice skating rink and they had fun sliding around on the ice.

Snapshots from Christmas Day

Here are some fun pictures from Christmas Day...

• Michael opening one of his many gifts
• Justin telling us "Hey, look at Michael's Hot Wheels car...it's so cool!"
• Justin looking out the window wondering..."What exactly is all that white stuff??"
• Two words...BELLY LAUGH :)
• Hangin' with Papa Jim

Christmas Portraits

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from Christmas Eve...we were all so happy to be together.

Christmas Slideshow

Here are some fun pictures that we took Christmas Eve night!

Wrestling with Papa

Wrestling is one of Michael's favorite things to do and he was able to get in a "match" with Papa Jim!

Nana is Here!

Nana arrived into town for the holidays and the boys were so excited to see her! Though they look a bit disinterested in the book she's reading to them don't they?? :)

Papa Jim & Justin Relaxin'

My mom and dad are in town from Florida and they watched the boys tonight for a couple hours. After Papa Jim gave Michael a bath, he chilled on the chair with Justin. Whew...it's a lot of work watching these two! :)

Grammie Rita & Papa Mike Visit from Oregon

Kevin's parents came from Bend, Oregon and spent an entire week with us (May 8th - 15th). It was a wonderful time! They were able to spend lots of great quality time with the boys. A trip is just not a trip to the Twin Cities without spending time at the Mall of America - so we went there twice! Michael also got to swim at the hotel pool and was a little fish! We loved having them visit and hope they return soon. We miss them already....

Michael's First Haircut

Papa Jim gave Michael his very first haircut! He did a great job of sitting still for Papa and held the comb like a champ. He looks like such a big boy now!
