The never-ending snow storm

We were all excited to get some snow on Tuesday. Especially since it was forecast to be quite a bit. BUT, we are now on snowstorm #2 and day 4 of being snowed in and we are ready for it to quit! Luckily, Aunt Jessica has been here all week to help out Mama and keep her from going crazy.

Snow Angels - we tried for a snowman, but Mom's snowman skills are not good.

Where are Mommy's feet?

Will William be walking soon?

Ignore the mess :)

Nora's Birthday Party

I had my birthday party Saturday here at our house. It was loads of fun and lots of people came to see me! Thanks to all my friends and family that made the long drive (or flight) up here for my party!

Enjoying my cupcake. I might have eaten 4 cupcakes that day!

Nora turns 3!

Its hard to believe my little Nora is 3 years old! She's getting so big. She's such a sweet girl and loves to help mommy with everything - cooking, laundry, cleaning, Will. She loves reading and watching movies. She's still obsessed with dogs and pretends to be one every single day.

Third Birthday today!

Since I'm having a little birthday party next weekend, we didn't have a big celebration today. Mommy took me to Toys R Us. They gave me a birthday crown and balloon for coming on my birthday. I got to pick out a couple of toys - I chose some dog figures and the movie Bolt (can you tell I love dogs?). I got to eat McDonald's for lunch; chicken nuggets are my favorite! Mom and I made cookies tonight. And finally, I got to play in the snow for a little while! I had a really great birthday and can't wait to see everyone for my party next weekend!

Pulling up!

So Will has become tremendously (mom says scarily) mobile in the past few weeks. He's been army crawling for a while now, but now he is "regular" crawling on his hands and knees and had begun pulling up (and even trying to cruise the furniture). He's almost 8 months old so I guess its about time for him to be moving but I'm not sure Mommy and Daddy are ready for this!


Will loves to pull up on the couch (and the tv stand, and the bookshelf, and the wall, and anything he can get his hands on)


Mom has started finding Will standing in my crib after I wake up.

Will's not much of a talker yet, but he sure can move!

Christmas 2010

This year Christmas was celebrated several times. We had our first Christmas at Thanksgiving with Daddy's side of the family. We open presents from immediate family on Tuesday night (Dec 20th) because we would be out of town with Mommy's side of the family on Christmas. I enjoyed this because Christmas seemed to last forever and I got to open lots of presents! However, Mommy and Daddy say that next year we will make it a point to spend Christmas Eve at our house so Santa can visit here.

As usual, Mom did not do such a great job with taking pictures, but here are a few to enjoy:

Christmas at our house:


Will's favorite part - eating the wrapping paper!

Santa Came!!

Will's Tigger from Santa (I think I liked it more than Will)


I love the Grinch and Max from Mimi


I love my cute hat from Aunt Katherine

Overall, we had a really great Christmas. We loved seeing all our family and eating yummy food. We got lots of great presents. I know I can't wait to do it again next year. I was very sad when Mommy was taking down the Christmas tree today. But she told me that coming soon was my birthday! So now I have something to look forward to!
