SANDBOX

Jason made Judah a sandbox out of an old fishing boat!!  Not only is it fun (and dirty), it's ADORABLE!

Judah's trademark growl...

discovering the feel of sand between his toes...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

WONDERFUL Thanksgiving with WONDERFUL family :)  Five years ago the men would hunt while the women cooked, talked, and sewed...it was peaceful...festive but calm.  Now, with 4 boys between 20 months and 3 years, and 1 (very helpful) 6 year old girl, Thanksgiving is DEFINITELY festive but the calm is long gone :)  But we're happy to lose a little quiet to gain a growing family :) The final number this year...19 holiday guests at the ranch!

Judah LOVES Lily!  He followed her all over the house, holding her hand, hugging and giving kisses...he even became a little territorial when the other cousins tried to play with her :)  He also learned to spit (see video below) after eating a fair amount of dirt.  SO much fun :)

MAGICAL TENT...

We created the most magical tent in our living room...complete with Christmas lights :)  It was built for "Judah" (even if Hannah spent more time inside) and stayed up for 6 days :)  

MEMPHIS (again)!!!

Another quick get-away to the ranch :)  As always, we love seeing Grandma Bobbie...and the past couple of trips we've also gotten to see (Papa) John!  Lots of fun :)

19 MONTHS!

So old...and changing so fast.  Equally as adorable and loving, but with smaller thighs and less cheeks :)  It doesn't matter what we're doing, as long as Judah is outside, he's happy.  And the quickest way to win his affection is through grapes, watermelon, or Lightning McQueen :)
