This is his "burrrr" photo after the driveway was finally finished.
All wrapped up for one of the pre-Christmas storms. I'm surprised he can put his arms down!

SNOW!!!
Kyler getting all bundled to help dad shovel with the many snow storms we've been having. This is his "burrrr" photo after the driveway was finally finished.

Finally a Night Out
Blake and I share Jazz season tickets with my family but since the season started right when Zoey was born Blake has been going with friends to the games. Well Friday was finally my turn. I was ready to leave the kids at home with the grandparents and go for a night out with my husband. We went to dinner before the game and actually had adult conversation. It wasn't as weird as it was with Kyler since I leave her everyday to go to work but the first date night is always a big step!

Just Some Random Photos of Kids
Grandpa introduced Kyler to cotton candy this week and needless to say he was a big fan.
He still doesn't like to get his hands dirty though.
It's amazing how Zoey can stare and her mobile forever and not blink.
My little family all ready for bed!
If you notice Zoey is not looking at me or the camera, that is because she is watching Thomas the Train movies left on by her brother. He's trying to get her hooked early!
Bed time for Kyler surrounded by Curious George.

Zoey's Smiles
So we have reached that wonderful stage with smiles, cooing, and even a giggle now and then. This means I have been going crazy with the video camera because a photo can't really capture the moment as well (but I still try).
Zoey's Blessing Day
Zoey Sophia
It's official!! The Sunday after Christmas we still had some family in town so Blake blessed our sweet little girl. After we had friends and family over for breakfast.
My wonderful cousins!!
Where's the baby in all that dress. SO Cute!
Aunt Brooke and Grandma KarynZoey and Mercedes
My sweet cousin Shae came to Zoey's blessing and brought her little girl Mercedes. They are just two months apart.
Mercedes kept grabbing onto Zoey's hand. It looked so sweet. I'm glad grandma got a photo in time. 
Matching bracelets
(Shae made me one when Zoey was born)

Christmas Morning 2008
So I am a little behind on the blogging but here are a few posts from our Christmas.
Kyler was definitely into the ripping off wrapping paper this year and wanted to help out everyone else.
Kyler trying out his Thomas the Tank Engine bike from Santa. For now he has been content to ride it around the kitchen until it warms up outside.
This is how Zoey spent her first Christmas morning. Asleep in my bed.

Two Days of Christmas
We always split up Christmas one day with my family and the other day with Blake's so we don't feel like we're running around all day long. So far it has worked out well. As you will see from the photos we continue to support Kyler's train obsession.

Christmas Decorating
This is the first year in awhile I have gone all out on the Christmas decorations. The past few years we haven't been home for December so I just didn't bother. But this year after several trips to Michaels and Tia Pan and the help of my very talented mother-in-law here are the results.
Kyler helped put the tree together but that is as long as his attention span lasted.
I was really excited about how it turned out. I wish I could decorate with sparkly stuff all year round.

Sea Foam Christmas Kitty
What can I say! They are no words that can do this story justice.
Blake is on the 'party planning committee' at work and as I'm sure you could guess he won "ugly holiday sweater day". Here's some background. The lovely mint great sweatshirt, size medium, was decorated by myself at age 8-9 with an iron on Santa cat and accessorized with puffy fabric paints (big in the 80s). My mom has kept it for all these years and it finally paid off.
His day at work was crazy!! No less than 15 people took photos with their cell phones. He was pulled into everyone's meetings to show off. He stopped meetings when people were laughing so hard they couldn't continue speaking after he walked by conference rooms. He was featured in the company newsletter. And the list goes on and on...
We just might have to make this a Christmas tradition!!
