Christmas at Mama Jo's and Papa Dave's

We went to Peachtree City, GA today and had Christmas with Jo Mama and Papa Dave and the rest of the Howard clan! We had a great time and we were excited for everyone to meet Patton.

Christmas Night at Papa and ReRe's

We spent Christmas night with Papa and ReRe. We had a great time. Luke and Evan got these big bouncy balls for Christmas so HG and I decided that it would be funny to play pregnant with Erika. Luke thought it would be funny to wear the Christmas stockings as "stockings" and slide across the kitchen floor. Meanwhile, Patton slept! We had a fun time goofing off.

We spent Christmas night with Papa and ReRe. We had a lot of fun. Luke thought it would be funny to wear the Christmas stockings as "stockings" and slide around on the kitchen floor. Luke and Evan got these big bouncy balls for Christmas and all the girls thought it would be funny to play pregnant with Erika. We had fun goofing off!!!

Christmas at Nana and Gramps!

We spent Christmas Day in Tuscaloosa. We had lunch with Nana and Gramps and we had a great day. It was a little crazy this year since Luke and Evan are getting bigger but it was so much fun to watch how excited they got when they opened a present!!! Merry Christmas!

Christmas Morning!!!

We had a the best Christmas morning with Patton. He of course had no idea what was going on but he sure looks like he enjoyed it. He was all smiles!!

Christmas Eve with Grandma and Grandpa Bill

We spent a few days before Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa Bill as well as Christmas Eve. We had a nice day and a wonderful dinner. Mark got a chainsaw!!! YIKES.....

First Visit with Santa

We took Patton to see Santa at North Point Mall in Alpharetta with his Grandma and Grandpa Bill. Grandpa Bill graciously held us a place in line and it was smooth sailing after that. Santa was terrific but the professional picture that Patton has with Santa was not that great. Just as we were walking away I had a brainstorm for a great picture and this is how it turned out....

A D O R A B L E

Thanks, Nana, for the precious outfit!! It was perfect for the picture.

Visit with Friends over the Christmas Holidays

Patton's First Day at Canterbury CDC

Patton started daycare today! Sad for me but I am sure he loves being around all the other babies. He didn't seem to sad when I put him in his car seat and told him he was going to school!

Patton's First Iron Bowl

So, Alabama lost AGAIN :( Maybe we will win next year. Patton wasn't very interested in the game ... was it that bad?

More pictures from Thanskgiving weekend in Tuscaloosa

Thanksgiving Weekend

After leaving Alpharetta, we headed to Tuscaloosa to Nana, Gramps, ReRe and Papa and all of Patton's uncles, aunt, and cousins. Again, all Patton did was sleep! Here are some pictures from Papa and ReRe's house. We tried so desperately to get all the kiddos to look at the camera but it didn't quite workout as we had hoped!

Thanksgiving!

Patton celebrated his first Thanksgiving in Alpharetta with his Grandma and Grandpa. All he did was sleep!

Bath Time

Patton is not very fond of bath time. I am pretty sure you can see what I mean by looking at this picture.

Paying tribute to the Boppy Chair!!!

I just thought it would be fun to pay tribute to the boppy chair in pictures. It has been the greatest thing to have thus far. Thanks to Jenna and Stacy for getting such a wonderful and practical gift!!! We use it everyday!

Patton meets his cousins!!!!!

Nana, Aunt Erika, Luke and Evan came to visit Patton on Halloween. This was the first time that Luke and Evan were able to meet Patton. Luke wanted to look at him all the time but Evan was more interested in playing with Patton's toys. We had a great time!!

Halloween

I was tempted to dress Patton up for Halloween but being a little less than 2 weeks old at the time, all he was willing to do is sleep. This bib was about all I could do!

All the many ways that Patton likes to SLEEP

I thought it would fun to share with everyone some of the many ways our precious baby sleeps!
