Happy St. Patrick's Day
Daddy's family had a tradition that a leprachan came to visit them every year on St. Patrick's Day. Each year they would make a potion to try and catch him. Well we tried to do it this year and we didn't have enough time to do a potion before bed but he did come visit and left us a note, candy and a little bit of his gold. It was lots of fun, and to celebrate we also had a green breakfast. Green eggs and ham, and then green pancakes. It was lots of fun, and CJ loved the green pancakes. Happy St. Patrick's Day!

applesauce
Last night we tried to give Baby L some real food. Since CJ's first food was applesauce we tried the same thing for Baby L. We got everything all ready and he was really excited to put a bib on and be a part of the table while we were eating dinner. Daddy got the camera ready and I got the food. I got a little on the baby spoon and stuck it in his mouth, and it came right back out. He looked at me like I had just fed him dirt. He didn't like it at all. I tried to give him more and he wouldn't have any. It all ended up on the bib. Then I decided to try somthing else, since I didn't have any rice cereal, I decided to give him a taste of something we were having, pork and beans. I just dipped the spoon into the sauce and gave it to him. This time he made a face but he didn't spit it out the second I put it in. In the end he had about four spoons of pork and bean sauce. My silly little boy!

Christmas Day
For Christmas CJ wanted a blue bicycle from Santa, and when he went downstairs and walked into the room, he first picked up Baby L's new play gym and then walked over and looked under the Christmas tree. He walked right past the bike without even noticing anything. We finally pointed it out and he was super excited. Santa even gave him back the letter CJ wrote to him with a note back to him saying thanks for the letter. CJ thought it was really cool and couldn't wait to try out his new bike.
The is Baby L in his new play gym. He loves it! He plays in it all the time. It is so great to be able to put him down and have him be entertained for a little while.
This year was super fun, CJ was really into opening everything and figuring out all the cool things that he got from Santa.
CJ gave everyone their presents from under the tree, that was his big job this year.
And after he gave the people their presents he would help them open the presents also.
CJ got a sand table from Grandma and Grandpa, we set it up downstairs and he had a ton of fun. It is still their because it has been so cold, but now we need to get it out on our balcony. He spent hours and hours playing with it, and still plays with it for a long time everytime we go down to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa.
This is all of us stainding around watching CJ play with his sand box.
And then we tried to help CJ ride his bike. He can't really ride it by himself yet. He doesn't like to turn the handlebars so we end up running into the walls, and he doesn't quite understand how to pedal yet. He always goes a little bit foreward and then instead of pushing a little harder at the bottom with his foot he starts pushing with his top foot which makes the pedals go backwards so he ends up braking instead of going foreward. But we have lots of time to practice and we have a nice big tennis court that he can learn to ride in. I'm so excited that it is getting warmer and we will be able to bring these fun outdoor presents home from Grandma's house.
Christmas Eve
On Christmas Eve we got to go to both grandparents houses. First we went to Daddy's parents house and got to open presents with everyone. One of CJ's favorite gifts this year was some duplos. He loves duplos!!! We play with them almost everyday all day long.
He also got a big puzzle mat and he was playing peek a boo in the big bag that it came in, until he ripped it open. :)
Daddy fell asleep with Baby L and his new blanket. The funny part about this picture is that he just had two Mellow Yellow's so he had a lot of caffine and then passed out.
Later that night we went to my parents to spend the night. After the boys were all ready for bed Santa came to say hi. He got to stay for a while and even read CJ a bed time story. It was a tradition in my family to read The Nativity on Christmas eve, so this year Santa got to read it to us.

Family Christmas Party
We had a family Christmas party with Daddy's extended family. We had lots of yummy food and prizes and Santa even came to see us. We all had a lot of fun and it was nice to see everyone for the holiday.
CJ loved the vacumm. They got it out to clean up all the crumbs from eveyone and the two year olds were the ones that cleaned up. :)
CJ and Baby L on Santa's lap. CJ loved Santa. He was so excited to see him. He watched him the whole time while he was giving little bags to all the kids. He even wanted to sit on his lap twice. Once by himself and then another time with his brother.
