Visiting Santa

While we were in Ohio, the kids got a chance to meet Santa and see a big train.

Noelle and Brady were both big fans of the train.

Brady was a big fan of Santa... Noelle not so much.

This one is my absolute favorite.  The look on Brady's face is priceless.  He's looks like he's thinking, "hey Noelle, stop getting so upset - this is Santa and he brings us PRESENTS.  He's cool because he brings up PRESENTS."

Thanksgiving 2012

We went to Ohio for Thanksgiving this year.

Noelle really enjoyed playing with her diapers.  All the time.

Noelle's First Haircut

Noelle got her very first haircut on 11.17.12.  She was such a big girl and did such a good job!!

And because we were only paying attention to Noelle, Brady made sure we took some pictures of him...

After Brady's Birthday...

Here was what the house looked like the day after Brady's birthday party.

Brady's Third Birthday

This is about two months late... but here are photos from Brady's birthday.

He really understood and was excited to open presents on his actual birthday.  Really excited.

And here are photos from his birthday party the following weekend.

Enjoying the balloons

Waiting... very impatiently... to open presents.  He seriously sat and stared at them until we finally let him open one.

And here's Noelle, enjoying the simple pleasures, like playing with balloons.
