Christmas in Chicago 2010


Liam and I love to read books to Declan...it's become my favorite time with the boys. Declan actually enjoys tummy time.

We had a great big snow come through Christmas Day so we bundled the boys up and enjoyed walking, eating, and dancing in the snow.

Liam loves to be a robot...so he was determined to be a robot for breakfast. Then he realized after the spoon (see the oatmeal stain on the tub) would not go through the tub, he took it off to eat.

Liam put his hat on Declan.

Riding on Dada's back.

Christmas morning before we enjoyed our gift giving.

Declan slept most of the morning while we were opening gifts so Liam opened them for him.

Liam and Declan got many books...their favorite.

Did Tim really pay $75.00 for this candy?

AquaDoodle was a big hit this Christmas.

Enjoying the lights of the Christmas tree and playing with brother after a long nap.

We had a yummy duck instead of goose this Christmas. The goose was huge and we only needed enough for us.

And I made an egg nog bread pudding. Extra Yummers!

Liam loves to make snow balls.

Thank you to everyone for the gifts, love and support over the past year!
2010 gave us 3 big life changing events: 1- Tim got into a PhD program. 2- Emmalee started her own business. 3- Declan's birth
Happy New Year to all!

Certainly a lot more snow than what we got (naturally, of course). It's so fun to watch these two little boys grow up. I can see that Declan has already become more aware of things and developing a sweet little smile. Love to you all!
