Kellan and Sean decorated our gingerbread house tonight...well, Kellan decorated it and Sean ate candy ; ) What a guy! Apparently, he REALLY likes gumdrops.

XOXO

Caught red-handed eating candy ; )

Kellan went to a birthday party today for his friend Joie-Lynn (Happy 4th birthday Joie). There was a surprise guest and Kellan told him that he wanted a "fire truck" for Christmas : )

Sean was home sick with Momma...that means more cupcakes for everyone else ; )
XOX Katie and the boys

Kellan's Christmas Show

For those we love who couldn't make it to the show...here is the performance! Kellan did a GREAT JOB!!
XOXO Us

One of the pics we had taken last month. (We have some photos to send out - I just have to get them to the mail!)
They sure are grown up - great boys!

Dancing to the "Fresh Beat Band" before bed.

Officially in "melt down mode"

Asleep in almost exactly 3 minutes...fast asleep!

Not so much...took him about 5 minutes ; )

G'night boys...Momma loves ya! I'm off to do laundry : )

We're ready for December...
XX Kellan and Sean

This kiddo is too funny! He has so many expressions. Sean is saying a lot of cute things right now. "I'm sorry" is at the top of the list. He says it all the time, especially when there is not a reason to. He also calls Kellan "brother" - a habit that is absolutely PRECIOUS!!! In response, Kellan says "I love my baby" all the time. I wonder when we will let Sean be anything but "the baby."
...not anytime soon for sure : )

XOXO Katie and 2 perfect boys

Had to post these pics from my birthday so that Emmy could see the beautiful flowers she sent. The carnations and greens are still looking lovely today! Note the little hands in the pictures...they COULDN'T WAIT to get to the cupcakes - we all know what Mandy's homemade frosting tastes like - YUMMMMMMY!!
XXOO Thanks all!!
Katie

Our first big snowfall (and the only one really...no "break-in" snow this year). The boys are loving the white fluffy stuff...they have been outside three times already today....and it's only noon : )

XOXO Katie, Kellan, and Sean

We love you Eve and were thinking of you on your birthday! Sorry that Momma didn't get our "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" wishes up here sooner (or get your gift in the post!)

Lots of love,
Kellan and Sean
(Momma says "Hooray" for you too!)

Here is how we spent a good part of our evening. Kellan designed the Jack-O-Lanterns by himself...I tried to stay totally true to his design (despite my own ideals...e.g., ears on the bottom pumpkin ; ).

Both of the boys enjoyed the roasted pumpkin seeds too...yummy!

XXOO Katie and the boys

Here are some pics from last weekend...

Nothing too remarkable about eating soup, but it was only about 8:00 am...Momma was feeling the need for some cozy soup on a lazy Sunday morning...Bright and early!!

Here she is!! BEAUTIFUL BABY APRIL...XOXO

Congratulations Auntie Jennifer, Uncle John, and Cousin Eve! We know that you are going to be the best big sister ever Eve!!

We can't wait to meet our new baby cousin!

XOXO

Kellan and Sean

These are out of order, but too good to leave out - so...enjoy!
