Ava is becoming more awake during the day and ever more awake at night! She and her dad get a lot of bonding time between midnight and 4am.


Hanging out with mom!

Gotta love Atlanta and how we love coke!

Bath time.

Ava is not so excited about the end of bath time.

Ava Day 2

Ava LOVES to sleep! She was awake through a lot of the night but it wasn't bad. She likes to be cuddled and held. Caleb can't sleep when she is making noises...even happy noises. It's pretty cute!

Gingerbread houses

Zachary did not want to sit on my lap for a picture so this is him flying through the air during our picture.
The girl houses= the best houses- we really know how to use the candy in strategic ways!

This is the second annual Gingerbread house making party! You can see the bottom three very well.

Thanksgiving

We spent this Thanksgiving in Atlanta. It was nice to relax, head up to the mountains, and enjoy the last of the warm-ish weather. It was 50 degrees one day and I was wearing 2 pair of pants....I am becoming weak to the cold! We missed our family and friends this year but we are excited that baby starr (still no name) will be here soon! Count down=19 days!

Our Beautiful Christmas tree! Pay no attention to the unfinished hole in the background!

Hiking at the Ocoee...site of the 1996 Olympic game Kayaking events...very beautiful!




Thanksgiving Morning! Getting ready to go to the Barbers!
