Photo shoot

My wonderful cousin, Sarah, came to our house and took these awesome pictures of the boys. Orion wasn't as willing to cooperate as Xavier was so we did not get many of the two of them together. If anyone is looking for a great photographer please let me know!

3 years old

It's hard to believe that we are the parents of a three year old. So far three is worse than two!
We didn't take many pictures tonight, and just celebrated with the four of us. Orion got some more trains and track so we sent up the track in the living room and he was thrilled. Every time someone would tell him Happy Birthday today he would say Happy Birthday back to that person too. He is such a sweet little boy and keeps us laughing.....most days! We love you buddy!

Papa's visit

Papa came to spend a few days with us over Christmas and it was wonderful. Orion loved having Papa here because he is just as silly as Orion! Xavier also got some good snuggle time in and shared his smile a lot with Papa. We were sad to say goodbye today, and Orion asked a few hours after Papa left when he was coming back!

Christmas Day

We spent Christmas Day at home with just the four of us and Papa. We played with all the new toys and watched a few movies. It was very relaxing and I think every Christmas should be spent in your pajamas!

Holmes Family Christmas

Christmas Eve was our turn to host the family Christmas for the Holmes clan. We had a great time and ate way too much food. Orion was on overload because he was showered with attention and presents! Xavier wasn't quite sure what to think about being handed off to everyone and at the end was content to just be by himself on the couch without anyone holding him.
