Side by Side

Matt was away for the evening and the boys had little interest in going to sleep. The boys are wearing matching shirts-the Yankees-gifts from Grandma Ruth.  Wide awake. We had a late dinner. Fortunately afterward they calmed down a bit and went to sleep.

Bros Forever

Louis loves to pick out clothes for Gabriel to wear and he especially loves to go all matchy match with their outfits. His favorite outfit to match are pajamas. The boys ready for bed.

Perfect Lil Baby Legs

Since Leah was a baby I have absolutely loved baby legwarmers. I was given my first pair by a customer at Starbucks and at first thought "Huh?" but all it took was using them one time to realize what a perfect everyday accessory they are-especially when cloth diapering or with potty learning and ECing (elimination communication-diaper free). None of our kids have ever been big on wearing clothing while at home and I've never cared either way as long as they are warm/cool enough. Now that Gabriel has started to crawl though his knees need the extra protection from rubbing against our carpeting all day. Louis has gone back to wanting to use the potty so the legwarmers make that easier as well, the lack of pants to pull down is great. Leah's warmers have been used by both the boys AND she still uses her own for dance or as arm warmers. Love the versatility.

First Christmas

Sleepy Christmas Eve

We had a Christmas Eve dinner for our family and friends tonight. Gabriel was a bit out of sorts, not his usual happy self. He did finally go down for a nap at one point.

Tree Trimming Time!

One of our yearly traditions is heading over to Grandma Ruth & Grandpa George's house to help trim their Christmas tree. Today was the day.

Gabriel helped out with looking so cute in a Santa hat and his reindeer outfit.

We each receive an ornament to hang on their tree. This was Gabriel's. 

Mommy's Rockstar

Gabriel hasn't quite grown into his 3-6 clothes. Still cute.

Hand Me Downs

Gabriel has worn a few of Louis's newborn outfits. Some that Louis barely wore because he grew so quickly the first 2 months.

Here he is wearing Louis's take home outfit from the hospital.

Best Boys

Louis picked out matching outfits.
