Christmas cuteness

With Anna and Sammy in their matching Christmas pj's, thanks to Omi, we got very adventurous this morning. We decided to let Anna hold Sammy for a little photo shoot. I had no doubt it would go so well (once we were done, that is).



There are now TWO photos of the four of us! This is from our Christmas Eve Aquarium trip, which is apparently the way to go. Not crowded at all!

OK, so there are technically 3, but does this one really count? Cool shark, though, eh!
Trying to get Anna to notice the xx-ton shark 5 feet away from her.

Pensacola Beach week!

We spent the first week of December at Omi and Gampa's house. It had just gotten cold in Atlanta, but was still beautiful in FL. We had a great time on the beach with our little ones, but we had a really great time going out at night while the babysitters took care of said little ones.

This is how mommies and daddies get babies. They fall from the sky. And that's the story we're stickin' with!

Out on the fishing pier. I think it's ~1/4 mile to the end. In any case it's gorgeous.



Anna started the day scared of the water, so we played "dodge the waves". About 20 minutes later we had to stop her from running into the Gulf!

Sammy snoozing with an ocean view. Not a bad nap spot!

Mountain Park chili cook off

A few thousand people fewer attended than Chomp and Stomp, but that just meant we could actually get to the chili! Such a great time, and of course, wonderful to see the fam.



Watching the "band".

Lovely Austins, Joyce, Mimi and Pammie.

Lunch with Mimi and Pam - great to get a little extra cuddle time in there!
Sammy has some fun with Mimi

Updates from a blogging hiatus

So it's been a while since we blogged. It turns out that time is exactly what I have not really had during maternity leave. But for very happy reasons! We have had friends and family in town visiting us, and have traveled to visit friends and family. Here are a few pictures from early November.

Probably the only picture of the 4 of us in existance.

A trip to the Botanical Gardens shortly after Sammy's arrival.

Chomp and Stomp!!! Aunt Eli doing a little babysitting so mama can get more chili!

Anna being extremely cute at Chomp and Stomp.
