Christmas Time is Coming

Ok, so Jenee and I are officially hopeless at getting pictures up on the blog. I appologize. In the last few weeks, Jolie has learned how to roll over onto her tummy, which is awesome, and she has started teething, which is less awesome because now she wakes us up at 3:30 to announce that her gums are hurty and she needs some soothing . This morning she got a special treat. I figured she needed a cuddle so I brought her into our bed. Picture this: Daddy lying on his back, mommy cuddled up next to him, Jolie lying on her back - on daddy's tummy - with binky of goodness, and Sable and Marble sleeping between and next to daddy's legs. One big happy family.

Well, Thanksgiving has come and gone and as is tradition, after Thanksgiving, we went to get a Christmas tree, after eating pancakes at Ol' South. Below are some photos from that day!

Not happy about being in my chair, again...

But I'm pretty cute...

Overacheiver Eater

Jolie has started taking food time in her own hands. Apparently we aren't holding it correctly!

Some fun stuff from the mom

So I haven't posted in a long time but I had some pics from the last month that are kind of fun! So here we go...



Jolie is having a full out conversation with this obnoxious talking dog! She is so funny with this thing and it creeps us out to no end.




And nose bite! He was giving her lip.



Looks like her dad, sleeps like her mom.



I don't have time for this!



One day she needed a pillow to stand, the next she didn't. She stands on her own now.



Yes she loves and sleeps with the sock monkey. Don't leave home without it!




First pair of boots in a year and I ALMOST died!

More to come later... Videos and all!!

Jolie in September Part 1 & 2

and

Good News!

Well, turns out I can share the picture after all. I must give credit to Corri, our photographer. As I said yesterday, she's a very gifted photographer and it was a privilege to work with her. Here's Jolie:

Our First Photo Session

I am sorry, but this post is going to be a big tease, so everyone who does not got to MBC is going to be upset with me, but, we just had our first appointment with our photographer and we picked a photo for Jolie's christening in a few weeks. All I can say is I have one beautiful little girl, her Momma and I are so proud of her!

She did so well, letting us position her, play with her, change her clothes and so on. Of course there were a couple of impressive cheesy spit-ups, and a few teary moments but she was so good and I have to say Corri was so good with her, and she is so gifted. You can see more of her work here: Corr Images, Inc.

I would love to show you the photo here, but I have to respect the photographers rights and not put it up. I may get permission at a later date... but wait till you see it in a few Sundays...

Down at the Barn

We took Jolie down to the barn just for fun the other day. Here are some shots we took.

Mommy," Weeeeeee!"
Jolie, "Weeeeeee ;-)"



Pretty sure Killian was the bigger baby. She just wasn't to sure about the little hooman.

She was talking to talking to Mommy when we took this shot

I is smiling at Daddy!

When I see her in pictures she looks so small, but when I am holding her, she's growing so big, so fast.

The eyebrow of judgment!

Bonus Pic

After coming back from the barn, I noticed Sable had found herself a new perch.
I love how she has "made herself at home". Bad girl...

Uncle Ted and Aunty Courtney's First Skydive!

A couple of weeks ago Courtney and Ted went skydiving to celebrate their birthdays. Courtney went tandem while Ted chose to go solo. We all wend and had a great time. How much fun!

Ted doing some serious man training

It was pretty hot so all we needed was a onsie

Waiting for Ted to be done so they could dive together

Ted looking manly in his dive suit, Court had to look away to keep her wits about her :-)

Being interviewed for his personalized dive video

So CUTE!

Courtney had to wear the helmet for special people

Up, up and away! This plane took off every 30 minutes

Here's Ted landing solo, note the plane on landing approach in the back ground

And here comes Court!

Pictures Galore!

For the most part we are now settled. I am working at Sam and Joe's (the Family business) while I look for a job, Jenee is working from home so she can look after the Pumpkin, Jolie is smiling, cooing, looking at us and as of last night sleeping through the night (7 hrs 30 min thank you very much!). We'll see how long that lasts. Sable continues to be her bad self and Marble still hides under our bed for most of the day.

There, I think that covers most of it. Any questions? No? Enjoy the pics, you've waited long enough and you deserve to gaze over them!

Sweet cuddles with my Momma

Meanwhile I had a cuddle with Uncle Cory

Nothing better than Sunday morning cuddles with Grandpa

Wow, It's Been MORE than a MONTH!

...since I last posted pictures. My deepest apologies. Time flies and finding the time to upload a few pictures has been difficult the last couple of weeks. But here's the good news. I am going to post some pictures, actually, lots of pictures in the next couple of days so check back soon!

Hopefully I will also have time to write a little more about whats been going on and how the girl is growing (She's smiling and cooing at us now!).
