First Sled Ride

Poppa took Luke for a ride on the sled that Santa brought him. It started out good and ended bad.... Ha! Hopefully we'll be able to get him on it again.

Daddy & Mommy

Terrible pic of Mommy but we rarely get pics with the boys, especially Luke!

Little Santa

Weston played Santa for us... The cutest Santa I've ever seen! Needless to say he got passed around to a lot of laps. Uncle Nate got a little practice with the bottle...

Presents!

Luke was thrilled to see more presents under the tree on Sunday for Russell Christmas. He loved opening up his own gifts and helping everyone else open theirs. He was so excited he rolled around in all the paper like a crazy man.

Christmas at the German's

Cookies For Santa!

Christmas Eve Presents

We opened family presents on Christmas Eve and Luke and Wes made out like bandits. Luke especially loved the little laptop he received, and we'll see how he does with the Lincoln Logs. He may still be a little young for them, but at least Daddy can play with them in the meantime.

Happy Little Reindeer

Goey surprised us all with reindeer antlers on Christmas Eve, so we thought we'd share with the world how ridiculous we all look. Let's hope this isn't the start of a family tradition. :)

Breakfast with Santa

It's a Christmas Miracle! Luke actually sat on Santa's lap without tears! He WANTED to do it. We were amazed. Of course the only time Weston DOESN'T smile is when we put him on Santa's lap. Oh well. Guess they switched roles today. Luke's friend Alex was also there - she was thoroughly enjoying a cookies as she sat on Mrs. Claus' lap.

Wild Things

Luke's buddy Charlie came over the other day to play. What fun these two have together! It's hilarious to watch them interact, especially as they are destroying the house as you'll see below. Fortunately they are both good boys who pick up after themselves. Well, maybe after they've been offered a few snacks!

Weston is 5 Months Old!

Today our little guy is 5 months old and as cute as ever! Weston is just the sweetest thing, we can't get over it. We think he's gained about a pound and a half putting him at 16.5 and grown to about 26.5 inches. He's doing great with his solid food - we've started vegetables and despite a few grimaces has grown to enjoy his peas! He seems to be working hard on getting some teeth in - you'll see in one of the pics below he's started sucking in his lower lip, probably to chew on. So cute!!! He's very excited for his first Christmas and loves wearing the outfits Aunt KK bought for him...
