Laedyn dressed up in one of her Christmas Dresses
Tuesday, January 01, 2008
Laedyn's cold weather gear...Audrey sent her the little snowsuit. I bought the coat. For our walks the snowsuit has been much more effective. Laedyn is a Hudini when t comes to footwear. With the snowsuit she's out of luck as far as getting her feet bared. When she wears a coat, she can reach socks & slippers which then regularly fall on the ground. It's a miracle we haven't lost any. Luckily, Brandon is very observant & keeps a close watch for fallen footwear.
2008 NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS:
Val - post more regularly than I have this past month!!! I'm also starting Atkins again tomorrow. Time for all the baby weight from both kids to GO AWAY!!!! We've been walking A LOT with Jennifer, so that will be a huge help. Jennifer & I are planning to train to walk in the Dallas marathon next December.
Nick - he wants to become a world champion MOTO RACER player. We had the Playstation out last night & had alot of fun with the racing games. Me? I like Crash Team Racing the best ...
Brandon - says he wants to run a 5K with Nick. His friend Jackson did one in December & Brandon thought it sounded like a great idea.
Laedyn - hmmm - how about learning to walk, talk and eat solid food???? Surely that's enough for any one person to undertake for one year???
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Some pictures from Christmas morning...
Santa brought Laedyn a Lamaze flower garden. When she pushes on a blossom it plays music & lights up. She's been having lots of fun with it.
Brandon LOVED opening gifts. In fact, he wanted to do ALL the opening. The first package he found that was for someone else made him rather grouchy. He came around eventually though & got into the spirit of watching others open their gifts too.
Here's a cool puzzle Nick's Mom sent for Brandon. It was one of Nick's when he was a kid. She sent a bunch of Nick's old things for Brandon. He liked them all & it was fun for Nick to revisit his childhood favorites too.
Brandon's all about Matchbox/Hot Wheels cars these days, so he was happy to get some story books about them too.
Laedyn liked the ribbons and paper as much as what was in them. As you can see, she's doing pretty well with the sitting now. We put her in the middle of the Boppy pillow & she's fine for a long time. Without the pillow, though, she topples over within seconds...
She REALLY wanted to help Nick rip the paper off one of his packages.
Aren't these neat? It's a set of 3 and they connect together magnetically at the hands and feet. They also have different sounds (squeeks, rattles and crinkles). Of course, Laedyn had to taste them. She put EVERYTHING in her mouth - very different from Brandon as a baby.
Mamo (Val's Mom) got Brandon the shirt he's wearing in this picture. It's a kids running shirt. He was SO excited when he opened it, he stripped out of his PJs instantly and put the shirt on. He really loves to run with Nick, so now he can dress like his Daddy too. The backpack he's wearing is full of toy food & kitchen stuff. He loves to pretend to cook for everyone.
