Thanks Aunt Heather.  They’d take away my engineering degree if they knew how much trouble I had with that transformer.  I even had the step by step instructions.

And then Eli woke up and joined the fun.  I have to say I had a really fun Christmas because I opened most of his presents for him.

We had a blessed Christmas!!!  Happy Birthday Jesus!

Pre-Christmas

Hey!  I’m in a picture!  So these were back around Thanksgiving, but they fit the title.

Don’t ask.

And he’s gone again.  Actually this picture is a perfect picture to describe our household.  Seth is the introvert doing his own thing and Aiden has his mouth open.  Always has his mouth open.

The boys actually helped quite a bit this year.

And I know there are a lot of pics in this next series, but if you scroll kind of fast, it’s like those old flip books we used to make.

And they decorated their brother.

Finally, a few days before Christmas.  He was wearing these cute pants…again so I plopped him down in front of the tree and played with Scott’s fancy camera.

It was a lot of fun having a bigger baby during his first Christmas.  This is the other boys at their first Christmases.

Aiden: 2006 about 3 1/2 weeks old

Christmas Present (5)

and Seth:  2008 around 10 days old

I just thought Aiden looked really old here.

If we had tried to get Bear in the picture it would have never worked out this well.  He just decided to walk through the living room just after Scott had set the timer on the camera.

All the presents under the tree.

And Scott played with the camera after some blog tips I found for him.
