What the boys have been up to lately...

The boys have been growing...

...and eating Cheerios off the floor.

Cooper getting his haircut by his daddy. In order to prevent hair getting all over his clothes, Jason made a make-shift salon cape out of a garbage bag and duct tape. He looked so cute.

The boys are discovering the Christmas tree.

Cooper figured out how to look out the window.

The boys LOVE playing in and emptying their sock drawer. Their pajama drawer is also a favorite.

Bennett loving his brother.

Tissue boxes are a favorite at this house. 

We went to the Festival of Trees

With Jenny and her roommate. It was beautiful and a lot of fun.

Thanksgiving in Chicago Part 3: Day with Mom

We got to spend a day with my Mom and her husband Gerry who travelled 3 hours for us. It was so fun!

We went to Wildberry Pancakes for breakfast. It was delicious.


Janie loves ketchup. Even on her pancakes. Silly girl.


Grandma and Grandpa Williams with their littlest grandchild, Penny.

Cooper loved the hashbrowns and eggs that I fed him. Unfortunately, later that day he broke out in hives. We think he might be allergic to eggs... poor boy.


Jaxon and Kaylee enjoyed the little snow that they saw. They don't get snow in San Antonio.

After breakfast we went to the Jelly Belly factory.





Janie started getting sick at the Factory, so the Brunsons headed back to my dad's. The rest of us headed to the mall.

We didn't eat at Rainforest Cafe, but Kaylee and Jaxon enjoyed the docorations.

Outdoor World had a fun "Santa's Workshop" set up.


And then Grandpa Gerry spoiled Kaylee and Jaxon with some Build-a-Bear toys.

It was a great day.

Thanksgiving in Chicago Part 2: Time with Family

Spending time with Family was so fabulous. I enjoyed every minute.

Pretty typical evening.



I love my sisters!

We played games a lot.

The boys played games too, while the girls were out shopping and doing girly things. :)

Bennett loved having Aunt Crystal chase him.


Jaxon and Janie are so adorable! They were good little buddies.

Thanksgiving feast!


Jaxon was so cute. He thought he was really playing with the big boys.

Bennett LOVED Sparky. As did all of the grandkids. (Cooper would play with him if he was near by, but otherwise didn't really care. But Bennett would seek him out.)
